Slender Wonder is dedicated to educating individuals on how to eat a more nutritious diet and all in all, live a healthier lifestyle. As the saying goes “you are what you eat”, and this couldn’t be more true. What you eat has an influence on how you look and feel, which in turn has an impact on your general well-being.

But how do you improve your diet to be healthier? Here are 3 tips you can use to improve your diet overall and ensure a healthier lifestyle.

3 Tips to Eat Healthily 

  • Always Choose Whole Grain 

An easy first step you can take is to always opt for wholegrain or low-GI bread instead of white bread. White bread has endosperm (a form of starch), but it lacks the natural vitamins, minerals, fibre, proteins, and lipids found in whole grain bread which helps the body digest meals faster.

  • Opt for a Dinner at Home

Another thing you can do now to start living a healthy lifestyle is to make more meals at home. If you often purchase meals online, you should consider the overall health impact it might have on your body. Take-out meal quantities are always excessively large, and even if you order a salad, the dressing and preservatives in it might be detrimental to your health in the long run.

A quick and easy solution is to order deliciously healthy ready-made meals from Slender Wonder. This way, you get all the nutrients needed with the added convenience. 

  • Cut Back on Saturated Fat 

Although fat is also an important element of a nutritious diet, you should be mindful of the amount and kind of fat you consume. Saturated fat and unsaturated fat are the two basic forms of fat. Too much saturated fat can raise your blood cholesterol levels, increasing your chance of getting heart disease.

High in Saturated fat foods to stay away from include:

  • Pork
  • Butter
  • Processed Sausages
  • Hard cheese
  • Cream
  • Cakes
  • Biscuits
  • Pies

Rather opt for foods that contain unsaturated fats, such as vegetable oils and spreads, oily fish, and avocados.
