Online Healthy Food

Dedicated followers of faddy diets like cabbage soup, food combining and blood type could be forgiven for thinking that there's no consensus on what the healthy eating guidelines are. With most dieters failing to hit their target weight, the multi million pound online weight loss industry needs ever new and inventive ways to encourage the legions of veteran dieters to part with their cash. Promises of diets that are sure to work and need minimum effort are music to the ears of yo-yo dieters, and so another fad is born.

The smoke and mirrors approach of the diet industry has fuelled staggering profits. More people than ever are dieting but obesity rates are soaring.

Take into account the reported dangers of food additives and preservatives or the perceived benefits of organic and whole foods, it is no wonder that many search around for healthy online food guidelines.

For decades though, Nutritionists and Doctors across the country have agreed on a diet that promotes sound (but unglamorous!) eating habits. It's not rocket science:
  1. Eat a low 'GL' diet which includes plenty of fruit, vegetables and wholegrains and cuts down on refined carbohydrates;
  2. Avoid ‘bad' saturated fats and ensure you eat essential fats like omega 3, 6 & 9;
  3. Cut down your intake of processed food especially refined sugar;
  4. Lower your intake of sodium.
Healthy eating is not a quick fix. It's a long term change in your eating habits promoting greater health and wellbeing, and ultimately a leaner you.
