"You are what you eat." . . .
It's an expression we've heard all of our lives. But is it really that simple? In a word, "yes." Our choice of foods has a major impact on our health and the health of our families.
BEST HEALTHY TIP EVER .. . .
A home stocked with healthy foods starts with a head stocked with the knowledge of proper nutrition. Knowing what ingredients to buy is a good start, but kno

wing how to find those foods at the grocery store, how to read food labels properly, and how to prepare your meals in the most healthful way is important, too.
Experts say you should never cut any food group out of your diet including carbohydrates.
"There are carbs that are very, very good, and some that are less good, but your brain and body must have some carbohydrates every day," says Heller. Moreover, because complex carbohydrates (those rich in whole grains and fiber) keep you feeling full longer, they also help you to eat less and lose more!
"Many people believe they should feel not just satisfied after 

 a meal, but stuffed," says Heller. Remain conscious of portion sizes.
Avoid' Eating too much.'
While overeating is a problem, so is Not eating enough or often enough. Eat something every four hours and never let yourself "starve" from one meal to the next, Brandeis says.
Figure out the frequency of your meals that works best in your life and stick to it. Regular meals keep you feeling full n prevents dips in blood sugar also. The most nutritious snacks contain complex carbohydrates and a small amount of protein and fat.
Start Your Day With Breakfast as it is the most important meal of the day. After a long night's rest, your body needs the fuel to get your metabolism going and give you energy for the rest of the day.
