Importance of Proper Nutrition

There is a huge effect of not having proper nutrition in the fast-paced lifestyle we have today, instead of eating a well-balanced meal we usually submit ourselves to a quick and ready to eat high preservatives food due to our busy everyday life in result we develop the disease at an early age like hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, etc.

 We should know the importance of proper nutrition in our day to day lives like develop eating a healthy breakfast so instead of eating junk in the morning why not eat fruits and vegetables in your first meal of the day, try to have more protein than carbohydrates so that you can build a lean muscle and not a muscle covered with fats.

We all know that most of the food we eat is composed of simple carbohydrates meaning they are a quick energy source but do not supply any other source of nutrients like Sugar, Candies, Artificial syrup, cakes and pastries, cookies.

Check the Glycemic index of your Carbohydrates if it belongs to Simple or Complex carbohydrates.

Let’s try to drink at least 3 liters a day, some don’t like the taste of water because there’s no taste at all so try to put some flavor like citrus or lemon. Like what they say hydrate..hydrate..hydrate.

 Don’t skip meals your body needs nutrients, if you skip meals you starving your body to the nutrients it needs in a whole day remember to have 3 meals a day breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Know your calorie intake per day from your RMR (resting metabolic rate) in that way you can control the food you eat daily and can avoid binge eating.

Try to instill in your mind even if we have a busy life let's not forget our proper nutrition, Having Proper Nutrition can improve your health as well as your well-being.
