Maintaining Healthy Eating

Did you know that Vitamins and Minerals are a healthy way to keep your body properly nourished? Sometimes if you are not eating all of the right foods you need to supplement by taking vitamins. Vitamin D will actually help you live longer. You should take Vitamin D with your daily calcium intake. Vitamin C will help build your immune system to ward off viruses. Vitamin B6 and B12 will are your natural energy. Rather than grabbing an unhealthy red bowl or and other energy drink try taking Vitamins B6 and B12 instead. In summary, daily vitamins are essential for your body to perform at its potential, it may help you ward off sickness, keep you feeling full of energy and also may help you to live a longer life. If you don't take your vitamins than you are not giving yourself a fair chance at performance, without performance how can you focus on loosing weight, you can't, so don't forget your daily dose of vitamins.
Next I want to talk about fruits. Did you know that when your body craves sweets like chocolate or candy your body is actually trying to tell you that you are lacking a certain nutrient from a particular fruit. So the next time you are craving sweets grab a piece of fruit and then see how you feel. I like to have bananas and apples in the house at all times. I have a two year old and everyday we eat at least one banana. I like to eat the apples and bananas with moderate peanut butter as well. It really is a delicious and enjoyable snack and afterward I feel left with energy instead of eating junk food resulting in a crash or the feeling of hunger from non-satisfaction. In summary, make sure you keep your house stocked with bananas and apples, they are both relatively cheap foods and they will leave you feeling great and you may see the weight start to come off just by this simple trick. Any comments or suggestions you would like to add please feel free to ask...
