Basic guidelines for creating a healthy lifestyle should encompass both physical and mental well-being. What one consumes is of course of preeminent importance. Sugars, sodium and unhealthy fats should be eschewed. Portion size should be moderate. Eating fruits, vegetables and whole grains and low fat dairy foods is most optimal, followed by legumes and lean meat options. And, while eating three meals is a good norm, it should be noted that the heaviest meal of the day is not set in stone. Engage in regular exercise and include mental activities too. Avoid tobacco. Sleep a sufficient amount and find fun, recreational activities to enjoy. Follow doctor’s advice for disease control and seek help for mental anguish. Remember the power of saying no.
