Dark Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 The same rhythm of work sometimes forces us to have a life with less physical activity than we would like, so it is necessary to take maximum care of our diet to lead a healthy life and be less prone to suffer diseases. The nutritionist and teacher of the Catholic University Sedes Sapientiae, Roxana Fernandez Condori, proposes five eating habits to lead a healthy life. 1. Time to eat. A healthy diet consists of five meals a day, (three main meals and two snacks). Establish schedules to do it, ideally to have breakfast before 7:30 in the morning, lunch between noon and before 2 in the afternoon, and dinner at 6 or 7 at night. Refreshments should be at 10:30 in the morning and mid afternoon at 4:30. Finally, keep in mind the time you spend eating: the ideal is 30 to 45 minutes, the environment also counts and especially the company. 2. Chew well. When you consume your food try to chew for about 2 minutes, which will allow to crush 30 to 50 times the food. An adequate chewing will make the nutrients reach the blood stream more efficiently, favoring the hormonal secretion of the intestine, the digestive and absorption processes. 3. Drink water. Suggested for adults who spend time in offices is 12 and a half cups for women and 16 cups for men. In the case of being 50% of the time in the office and 50% in the street, drink at least one cup per hour. 4. Take care of the sugar. Consume it with moderation to the extent just and necessary. We know that you can make a sweet in the afternoon, but you can replace it with fruit or vegetable snack (chopped celery). 5. Include vegetables and lean meats in your meals. Meats like chicken or turkey, and at least three times a week blue fish.
