We are all looking for advice on how to lose weight, live longer and eat healthier. These quick tips can help you gain energy and feel better, while taking little or no effort at all. Keeping to natural foods, unprocessed and unpackaged meals will guarantee you health. Adding a step listed below weekly will encourage your body to heal itself while at the same time helping you to look fantastic. Easily implemented, ask your friends to join you in your six week transformation! Week 1: DRINK MORE WATER! According to the Institute for Integrative (IIN) Nutrition blog article on the importance of drinking water, there are several benefits to adding more to your daily intake. Water lubricates your muscles, transports waste and toxins out of your body through sweat and urine, keeps your skin moisturized and plumped up to eliminate wrinkles, assists in weight loss, relieves headaches that may be a sign of dehydration, hydrates your brain, boosts brainpower, and gives you energy. Most Americans spend their days dehydrated and in pain, where all they need is a little more water. Try adding one glass/day each day of this week so by the end of the week you are drinking up to eight glasses of water. I've found it easiest to drink one glass in the morning while getting ready for work, and bringing four 16oz bottles of water with me to work to drink throughout the day. To add a little flavor to your water, try adding slices of oranges or lemons to your water for a sweet drink. I found a wonderful item called a glass fruit infusion pitcher for flavored water naturally. Pitchers can be found on Amazon.com. Week 2: PRACTICE COOKING! Okay, I know, this might sound like a huge stretch from the first week of just adding water to your day, but practicing cooking doesn't have to be labor intensive, it could be as simple as making brown rice (which you just put in a pot, 2 C boiling water, 1 C brown rice, 50 minutes on the stove on low), making a smoothie in your blender with frozen berries and a banana and coconut water, or taking 10 minutes to chop veggies for a salad. There are great recipes located on my website, or you can simply do a Google search for a recipe using something you've got on hand. The other day I did a Google search for recipes using grapefruit, I found a fabulous recipe on allrecipes.com which included many items that I had on hand for a Quinoa Salad with Grapefruit, Avocado and Arugula, the items I didn't have on hand I just didn't include. Be creative with your meals, they don't have to be time consuming to be healthy and taste great! If you have children involve them in your practice, this is great "bonding" time as well as teaching time for your family. Cook with your significant other for a great date! Cooking styles include juicing, blending, steaming, boiling, and stir frying. Week 3: INCREASE WHOLE GRAINS Whole grains are very important source of vitamin B, iron, dietary fiber, and vitamin E. Cooking a large pot of brown rice, quinoa, or couscous at the beginning of the week can last you several days. For a quick breakfast, just dress your grains as you would oatmeal (another great grain by the way). You can add frozen veggies to brown rice and quinoa for a quick meal or snack and couscous makes a great side dish (add dried fruits for a sweet taste). Whole grains can be bought in bulk at your natural food store, this is the least expensive way to purchase, when you bring the grains home, store in a glass jar with a tight lid because grains can go rancid. Make sure to rinse off your grains as they do contain an outer layer of natural oil. Quinoa has a natural coating called sapotin which must be rinsed off. This coating is quinoa's natural protector and can cause a negative reaction especially individuals who have rheumatoid arthritis. Try to add ½ cup of whole grains to your day each day this week. The easiest way to do this is to have oatmeal at breakfast or make some brown rice and add veggies for a quick lunch with some sesame oil and rice vinegar. I also like to sprinkle a few sesame seeds into my brown rice for a nutty taste. Week 4: INCREASE SWEET VEGETABLES Increasing your intake of sweet vegetables can satisfy your sweet tooth. According to the Institute for Integrative (IIN) Nutrition sweet vegetables can soothe the internal organs of the body and energize the mind. Sweet root vegetables help keep you grounded and balance any sort of spacey feeling you may have. Some examples of sweet vegetables include carrots, onions, beets, winter squash, and sweet potatoes. Include these sweet vegetables in stir fry dishes or choose a variety of sweet vegetables, add water to a cooking dish and bake in the oven until they soften. Add some beans or tofu for a protein boost! Red and yellow bell peppers are great as a topping on pizza with tomatoes. This week try to incorporate at least 1 sweet vegetable in your day. It can be as easy as adding carrots to hummus, or steaming some beets and adding them to your salad. Week 5: INCREASE LEAFY GREEN VEGETABLES Dark green leafy vegetables benefit your body by purifying your blood, preventing cancer, improving circulation, strengthening your immune system, promoting healthy intestinal flora, improving liver, gall bladder and kidney function, and clearing congestion in the lungs according to Institute for Integrative (IIN) Nutrition. Leafy green vegetables include broccoli, bok choy, napa cabbage, kale, collards, watercress, mustard greens, arugula, lettuce, mesclun, spinach, Swiss chard and beet greens. The easiest way to increase leafy veggies is to eat a salad every day, just include this with one of your meals or in place of one of your meals. You can also steam, saute, or boil greens. Boiling these vegetables helps them plump up but make sure you only boil them for a minute, otherwise the greens lose valuable nutrients. Week 6: ADD REGULAR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY TO YOUR DAY Okay, unless you live in New York City and are able to walk to work, walk to the store, walk to the park and walk around the park, you could probably use more physical activity in your day. I myself work in Boulder, one of the healthiest cities in America and I still feel like I could use more physical activity. Physical activity is not only great in quickening your weight loss; it also increases your mental health and can relieve stress. A really easy way to incorporate physical activity to your day is to take a 30 minute walk during your lunch hour at work, add a 10 minute break in your morning and afternoon if possible and walk around your building (outside). I figured out that a walk to the grocery store for me from my apartment takes 20 minutes so by walking to the store, getting only what I can carry in my backpack at a reasonable weight and walking back home is a great workout and 2 mile walk. I often time listen to classes on my walks. Want to go the extra mile (no pun intended)? Add a small weight routine to your week, 2 or 3 times/week. I found an easy quick fit 15-minute exercise program on www.pbs.org/americaswalking/health/quickfit.html Okay, that's it, 6-weeks to a healthier you. Give these healthy habits a try and I guarantee you will feel healthier, lighter and more energized.
