lever and is necessary for a healthy heart?

Answer 1

Physical fitness is the key here. So what you need to focus on is Physical exercise. So make sure you take a break from soda and other sugar-sweetened drinks, phase out the salty junk food, engage into high intensity exercise once a day, take a break from work with yoga and prefer walking/cycling over to nearby locations. Once you’ve taken control of all this, the most important thing you should keep an eye on is your diet. While avoiding the wrong is important, however eating the right is even more integral.Here’s a list of ingredients your daily diet must comprise of.

Just recently I came across an amazing blogon a healthy diet, this answer is a crux of that blog.

1)Carbohydrates: Carbs are the basic fuel on which you run throughout the day. While excess of them can make you obese, lack of carbs can make you faint, feel dizzy and weak.

Some ‘good’ carbohydrates are: all vegetables,whole fruits, nuts, legumes(kidney beans, lentils), chia seeds and potatoes. The carbs you must avoid are: white bread, all synthetic sugars – ice cream, cake, pastries, candies,etc. (Cheating once in while is fine :D)

2)Liquids: The fact that more than half of human body is liquid implies the importance of liquid intake. So get your water bottle ready. Replenishers like lemonade and water based drinks(non sugar) will keep you hydrated and replenish those important electrolytes that the body needs on regular basis.



3) Proteins : Your building blocks, even though required in less amounts (45-55g), they are needed by the body for perfect functioning and maintenance of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood. They play a crucial role in giving you a steady metabolism, stabilizing blood sugar levels and improving mood and heart health.

4)Moderates: Coffee, tea and dark chocolate show significant improvement in cognitive ability apart from boosting memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem-solving skills by increasing blood flow to the brain. However they must be kept a check on. Avoid coffee after 3PM if you have sleep disorders and dark chocolate should not be the last thing you have before you sleep.
