Nutrition and healthy eating starts with tiny healthy habits cultivated over time. Easier said than done though. Here are a few tips and tricks to start changing your approach towards healthy eating:

Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day

Whether you have a sweet tooth or prefer something savoury when you wake up in the morning, eating breakfast is the most important thing you can do for your health. You can choose from a bowl of fruits, oats porridge, a nutrition-packed smoothie, yogurt and granola if you prefer something sweet. Or you can take the savoury route with poha (flattened rice flakes), toast, eggs, or a bowl of dalia (broken wheat) etc. Just start your day right.

Veggies are your friend

Yes, veggies are your friend. No, do not go ahead and eat a truckload of potatoes. Try to include as many colourful veggies as you can in your diet. Different colours means you are getting in different micro-nutrients. Find veggies that you actually like and prepare them yourself.

Arouse your inner chef

Try to prepare as many meals as you can at home. The benefits are innumerable. You know how much fats, protein, carbs, sodium etc. are there in your food. You are always prepared when hunger pangs start and you can make a healthy choice instead of eating an entire packet of cookies. Cooking healthy meals does not have to be hard. Start experimenting in the kitchen and you will find your groove.
