The phrase “healthy lifestyle” is a definition of how you should live if you want to get the healthiest body
you can- one that both looks good and feels good. You know the obvious behaviors that describe someone
who is healthy and takes care of themselves. A healthy person doesn't smoke, eats healthy foods with
plenty of fruits, vegetables and fiber and, of course, exercises regularly. A healthy person also knows how
to manage stress, gets good quality sleep each night, doesn't drink too much, doesn't sit too much, does
everything in moderation all the time. When you look at everything that could possibly make a healthy
lifestyle, you can see just how hard all of those things are in our current world.
There is no such thing as a "bad" food, but there are some foods you should try not to have on a regular
basis. Fast food refers to food that can be prepared and served quickly. It is popular as the food is
inexpensive, convenient, and tastes good. Because fast food is high in sodium, trans fat, and cholesterol. It
isn't something you should eat often.
The good news is you don't have to change everything at the same time. In fact, the trick to healthy living
is making small changes - taking more steps each day, adding fruits to your cereal, having an extra glass of
water, or saying no to that second helping of buttery mashed potatoes. One thing you can do right now to
make your lifestyle healthier is to move more.
