Healthful Eating Habits

    Many people stay healthy because they follow healthy eating habits.  That means they don't eat a lot of junk food or stuff themselves all the time.  Let Helda tell you a few healthful eating habits.



1) You should reduce your dietary fat intake by not eating as much red meat, butter, cheese, and whole fat dairy products.  Also, you can change recipes by adding an ingredient instead of something else. 
2) You need to keep your portion size reasonable. Include vegetables and salad with a small piece of meat; therefore, the meal won't seem as small.
3) You shouldn't deprive yourself.  Still eat your favorite snacks. Just don't eat them often, and don't eat very much of them. 
4) You need to eat plenty of vegetables and fruits. Fruits and vegetables give you vitamins and minerals. 
5) You need to eat plenty of fiber. Fiber is more filling, so you won't eat as much. Fiber is found in nuts, seeds, fruits, and vegetables.
