1. Eat more home cooked meals and snacks

Cooking at home means you can control what’s going into your meals and snacks and the serving size you dish up. Plus, it’s a great way to bring everyone together.

2. Eat more plants

vegetables

Why? Because plants are packed with fibre, an indigestible carbohydrate that passes through your body relatively intact. As such, fibre is excellent for digestion, gut health, aiding in maintaining a healthy weight and preventing some chronic diseases! 

To get your daily dose of fibre, eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, beans and whole grains like oats, wheat, barley and quinoa.

3. Swap out your regular cooking oil for Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Packed with powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, studies consistently show that those who eat a diet rich in Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) tend to live longer. Not only that, EVOO is protective against heart disease, reduces risk of stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and has also been shown to help people with a certain PPARG gene variation shed fat when they consume 3.5 tbsp a day – the health benefits are endless!

4. Avoid restrictive dieting
