- It is beneficial to your health to opt for whole wheat breads, rice, pasta or crackers. Whole wheat and grain products offer more vitamins, nutrients and fiber
- Remember to drink plenty of water! Most people need 8 or more glasses a day. Thirst is often confused for hunger, and this is when people tend to eat unhealthy snack foods. Staying hydrated ensures a healthier lifestyle, suppresses appetite and speeds up metabolism.
- Aim for a minimum of five (5) servings of fruits and vegetables per day and three (3) servings of low fat dairy products per day. Choose low fat or skim milk, low fat yogurt, and reduced fat cheeses.
