10 Tips for Fixing Heart Healthy Recipes |
|
Do you remember Grandma's apple cobbler? Is spaghetti one of your favorite meals? You can still eat these things, but new versions of them, if you know how to swap ingredients. Here are 10 tips for fixing heart healthy recipes. 1. Replace eggs wih a cholesterol-free egg substitute. If you don't have a substitute on hand, you may use egg whites. According to the American Heart Association, two egg whites may be substituted for a whole egg in baking recipes. 2. Use fat free (skim) milk. This one change saves you calories and lowers your cholesterol level. 3. Choose non-fat cheese. For better melting Dr. Richard Collins, author of The Cooking Cardiologist, recommends soaking the... |

5 Ways To Help Your Children To Love Fresh Vegetables! |
|
It’s so important to get your kids to eat more fresh vegetables every day, but what do you do if they groan every time they see a broccoli spear? Try these five crafty ways to get children to eat more veg. Rethink the way you serve meals. Don’t have the plate half covered with meat, with an apologetic spoonful of veg hidden behind it. Gradually reverse the ratio, so that the main part of the plate is filled with generous helpings of veg. It’s easier if you cook a couple of types. Add extra veg to meals you already serve. A can of borlotti beans in a pasta sauce, a sprinkling of sweetcorn kernels on a pizza, spaghetti served in a ‘nest’ of steamed broccoli florets. Every extra bit... |

7 Habits Of Healthy Eating |
|
Healthy eating and living a healthy lifestyle has a lot to do with forming the right habits. Here are seven of the best habits you can develop when it comes to healthy eating. Start by picking one of them and making it a habit of your own before moving on to the next. Before you know it, you will have developed a much healthier eating lifestyle. Drink Plenty of Water
Your body has to stay well hydrated to perform at its best and to properly process all the nutrients in the food you eat. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. You may need even more water if you are in a hot environment – like spending the day at the beach in 95-degree weather, or if you are exercising. If you are... |

A Guide To Chocolate |
|
Bitter, bubbly, and spicy—these were the characteristics of chocolates during the earlier times. According to studies, the Aztecs were the first to discover chocolate, although no one is sure as to exactly how this came about. Cacao trees were abundant in the deep jungles of Central America. The Aztecs collected seeds from these trees. After fermenting and drying these seeds, they were roasted and crushed with spices and water, bringing forth the first version of chocolate. Chocolate was once a ceremonial drink in Central America. Chocolate played a big part in the social and religious practices of the people from this area. Chocolate was further considered a sacred item, earning the... |

A Healthy Breakfast: Not An Impossible Mission |
|
It’s a trite but true refrain that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. For most of us, it’s been about 12 hours since our last meal and our bodies need a good refueling. Yet, statistics show that as many at 50% of us don’t eat breakfast. We’re too busy. We don’t like breakfast foods. We’re not hungry. We’re trying to lose weight. Sad to say, none of those reasons are valid. There are many healthy breakfasts that can either be bought or made that are fast and even portable. There’s no law that says you have to eat breakfast foods for breakfast. You legitimately might not feel hungry in the morning, particularly if you aren’t accustomed to eating breakfast. But you should eat... |

A Healthy Fish Recipe |
|
Fish is one of the healthiest meats that you can eat, but most people have no idea how to cook these healthy fish recipes. I am not talking about the frozen fish fillets that can be full of sodium or have other non-healthy breading on them; I am talking about fish such as salmon, tune, or mackerel. Because of the great amount of omega-3 fatty acids these fish contain the American Heath Association recommends that you eat this sort of fish twice a week. These fish can be cooked in an array of ways that will bring a healthy but tasty fish dish to your table. One great healthy fish recipe is Baked Salmon. This dish is easy to prepare and is sure to please even the... |

A Practical Approach To Healthy Eating Habits |
|
A healthy diet will help you look better, feel better and live longer. I am sad to say however that they are so many people who do not have a healthy eating lifestyle. I frequently see this at the checkout line in the supermarket. Much of the foods people purchase, such as french fries, fried chicken, microwave popcorn, doughnuts, margarine, cookies and pastries contain an artery-clogging fat called Trans fat. This fat can lead to type two diabetes, high cholesterol and other health problems. If you desire to live a long, healthy, vibrant life, you have to take care of your body by giving it the proper nutrition. More on this shortly. Eating Healthy can be enjoyable!

A Schedule for Healthy Eating |
|
For most of your life, you probably have eaten breakfast, lunch and dinner. Now depending on your eating habits, this may be OK...but for the vast majority of people, it's not. You skip breakfast because you don't have time, you have an OK lunch and then a huge dinner. Avoid this at all costs... When you wake up, your body is screaming for food...it needs it! By skipping breakfast you're depriving your body of nutrients and forcing it to go into hiberation mode, thus slowing down your metabolism. Dinner should be your lightest meal of the day because your metabolism is at its slowest...yet for most people, it's their largest. That being said... The ideal eating schedule is to have a... |

A Varied Diet Is The Key To A Healthy Life |
|
If our eating habits are varied and equilibrated, they will provide us with all the nutrients we need. Food can be classified according to type and quantity of nutrients it contains.
The following information will allow you to balance your daily ingestion of proteins, minerals and fiber, and limit your consumption of fat, carbohydrates and sodium, the excess of which is harmful to your health. Bread and cereals: Food belonging to this group contributes to increase your weight much less than they are believed to. What really makes you gain weight are the fat and sugar that are usually added to them (i.e. too much butter or marmalade). Also if you are eating any starches other than whole... |

Advice on choosing health food and healthy foods and reading nutrition labels |
|
Health food doesn't need a definition, does it? We all know what health food is it's yogurt and granola, whole-grain cereal and organically grown vegetables and fruit. It's 100% natural, no preservatives or dyes, unadulterated, pure. When you put all that together, you should have healthy food, yet all too often, what's marketed as health food these days barely classifies as food, let alone health food. Take a look at one of our favorite health food choices - yogurt. It hit supermarket shelves in the early seventies, though it had been available before that in health food stores and restaurants. Real yogurt has two ingredients: milk (whole, skim or low fat) and live... |
