Prioritise whole foods: choose foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. These nutrient-dense foods can help you feel full, satisfied,and energized. Since a diet is a choice, it means you sometimes want to choose something sweet. That is where the 80/20 rule comes in: eat healthy 80% of the time and leave the other 20% for those sweet-tooth cravings you just can’t kick. Life is about balance and being kind to yourself. |

Read labels: Check for ingredients and nutritional information. Look for items that are low in added sugars, sodium, and saturated fats. |
 |
Portion control: Use smaller plates and measuring cups to control your portion sizes. This can help prevent overeating and promote weight management. |
 |
Plan ahead: Plan your meals and snacks ahead of time to avoid making impulsive or unhealthy choices. This can also help you save time and money. |
 |
Cook at home: Cook your meals at home whenever possible. This allows you to control the ingredients and cooking methods and can be a fun way to experiment with new recipes. |
 |
Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and avoid sugary drinks.

Remember, making healthy food choices is a lifelong journey, and indulging in treats occasionally is okay. The key is to find a balance that works for you and your lifestyle.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet, and a healthy lifestyle. Ask your healthcare professional for guidance regarding your specific nutritional needs.
