The saying "Health is wealth" needs to be applied going forward into 2024. As you part your way with 2023, welcome the New Year on the right foot. This is the perfect time to start contemplating the choices that you made in 2023 and how you can make them better. One of the most important aspects of life is food or nutrition and to stay at your healthiest, you need to have a great relationship with food.
These seven New Year's resolutions about food will help you become the healthiest version of yourself. All you have to do is commit to them to improve your health both mentally and physically.
Eat According To The Season
It may appear easy, but that is because it is: eating in season is better for the environment and for your own health. This is due to the fact that materials grown in their proper season require fewer resources to grow profusely and frequently require far less transportation from other climates. Not only that but because it is fresher, in-season produce typically tastes better and contains more nutrients.
There are several approaches to this issue, but having a clear plan will make it easier to follow. Make a weekly commitment to consuming one or more “in season” recipes, or limit your intake of produce to lunchtime only.
Drink More Water
Invest in a reusable water bottle and use it whenever possible if you only make one resolution this year. It will make drinking water informally all day long quite simple. Without even realising it, you'll be more hydrated, which has numerous benefits for your health, including improved kidney, heart, and brain function. It's a simple, cost-free method to get healthier in the year 2024.
Mindful Eating
Taking foods that are low in fat, carbohydrates, gluten, sugar, or salt is the main goal of most diets that aim to lose weight. Enjoying food can be severely hampered by the rules and you are deprived of enjoying food. That is never effective.
Rather than dwelling on what you are unable to consume, consider what you may include in your diet to somewhat improve its health. Perhaps you could make a promise to yourself to pack a nutritious snack or drink more water. Make those your constructive objectives for enhancing your day's well-being and health.
Invest In A Sustainable Diet
Diets that, after you reach your target weight, you won't be able to stick to without feeling deprived or constrained are surely not worth the effort to worry that once you resume eating without a plan, your weight will return. Select a diet that will help you achieve your objectives and fit in with your busy schedule. produces benefits that are steady but gradual. It is a luxury to have a diet that you can stick to and that doesn't feel like a "diet."
Cook At Home
Cooking more at home kills two birds with one stone, whether you want to save money or eat healthier. This ensures that you have complete control over the ingredients that you are going to use to prepare your meals and also results in a more satisfying dining experience.
Focus More On Local Millets, Grains, And Greens
Try to incorporate more local foods in your diet such as millets like jowar, bajra, ragi, jhangora, kodo, kangni, and more. These millets have gained the reputation of being called superfoods due to their exceptional nutritional profile and benefits.
Also, focus more on including whole grains and whole grain flour instead of refined flour. Opt for a whole wheat bread instead of a white bread. These small changes make a great difference in the long run. Apart from that, also make sure to eat more greens in the upcoming year such as spinach, fenugreek leaves, radish leaves, amaranth leaves, and more.
Practise Moderation
One of the best ways you can ensure that you don't have to skip your favourite foods without compromising your health is by practising moderation. Make sure you enjoy your favourite dessert but in smaller portions. This will help you in satisfying your taste buds while also maintaining your health since you are not overloading with them.
Moderation applies to all the foods that you eat as even overeating healthy foods is not recommended or beneficial to your health.
