Rules of Healthy Eating

Hello my healthy friends. I hope you all are having an amazing day till now. Today I am going to share with you some of my healthy eating tips (again). So here we go.
1. The best tip that I can give anyone to be healthy is to eat fresh homemade food. It is the best food ever.
2. Cut down on all the tempting fast foods, mouth watering fried foods as well as sugary delicacies.
3. Ignore all types of caffeinated drinks and sodas (including diet sodas). Instead drink something that actually does something good to your body. This includes green tea, coconut water, green smoothies, etc
4. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables especially the greens (spinach, fenugreek and other varieties of locally available greens)
5. Stock up on whole grains and (fresh) sprouts.
6. Eat healthy snacks like homemade popcorn, khakra made with very little oil, murmura, poha (without potatoes), upma, etc
7. Consume nuts and dry fruits (in moderation).
8. Not being racist but replace all whites with browns. That means say no refined sugar, refined flour (maida) or any food made with that. Instead use whole wheat or multi grain flour. Replace sugar with dates, jiggery, and honey.
9. Drink at least 2.5-3 liters of water every day.
10. Start your day by drinking a tablespoon of lemon juice mixed in half a glass of water. This works as a detoxifier.
11. Always chew your food well. Researchers say that our brain requires 20 minutes to know whether our stomach is full or not. So take your time to finish your food.
12. Instead of having two heavy meals, break them down into 4-6 small meals.
13. Follow a specific time table and eat at specific time intervals throughout the day. If on some days you get hungry in between these intervals, don’t worry eat some healthy snacks or fruits.
14. Even if you are eating healthy food, don’t over eat it.
15. If you really want to be healthy, reduce stress from your life.
                           And lastly I just want to tell you all that it is okay f you aren’t able to follow these rules on some days (Everybody has such days). Only make sure that you follow them for most of the days (say 95%of the days). So here are some rules of healthy eating that I follow. If you think I missed any rule, let me know in the comments section.
