The New Year has arrived, and it’s the perfect opportunity to take steps toward a healthier lifestyle by adding these 5 foods to your diet. By starting small and focusing on nutrients to nourish your body, you’ll have a much better chance at staying happy and healthy in 2018. Not sure where to start? Take a look at the list of foods we’ve compiled below. Each of these options can play a role in creating a healthier you, and they’re readily available at most grocery stores—no obscure supplements or ingredients here!
Many Americans’ diets are lacking in fiber. While there are plenty of products specifically formulated to provide a supersized dose of dietary fiber, they’re often unpleasant to snack on. For an all-natural choice that tastes great, stock up on fresh or frozen berries. Blueberries and blackberries are excellent sources of fiber, and they’re easy to add to breakfast recipes or eat alone.
Don’t shy away from all foods that are high in fat, as this macronutrient is essential for a wide array of functions. If you’re already enjoying high-fat main entrees like salmon, you may be looking for a snack that’s both filling and nutritious. Instead of reaching for traditional appetizers like chips or sweetened granola bars, opt for unsalted nuts like almonds or cashews. This healthy choice provides awesome benefits, including protein, fat, and fiber.
When researching options for a healthy diet, you may have been warned to stay away from carbs. While it can be beneficial to cut down on refined grains like white bread and rice, it’s not advised to skip grains entirely. For a balanced meal, consider adding brown rice or quinoa. These types of whole grains are packed with fiber, helping you stay satiated for longer periods of time.
Breakfast is often referred to as the most important meal of the day. However, it can be a challenge to find a quick and portable option. When you’re on the go and need a no-stress recipe, Greek yogurt topped with berries and/or nuts is an easy and delicious choice. Unlike other types of yogurt, Greek yogurt is exceptionally high in protein and calcium.
If you’re hoping to save money and improve your diet, there’s no better way than to meal prep at home. Most main dishes require a tablespoon or two of fat, often found in butter or cooking spray. To get a healthy dose of monounsaturated fats and omega-3 fatty acids, opt for extra virgin olive oil instead of a dollop of butter. Some versions are formulated to have a light, buttery taste, so it’s a win-win.
