Eat Better to Feel Better

You may have heard the saying ‘you are what you eat’. 

Whilst this of course isn’t scientifically proven, there is some truth to it. Concerning diets, it’s healthy to be mindful of what you’re eating, but in no way should you feel ashamed. Whether you have a great diet, a problematic relationship with food, or feel like you don’t have the time to eat properly, there are things you can do to ensure your body (and mind) get the nutrients required to function at an optimum level. 
 
First and foremost, it’s important to identify exactly what food you’re consuming regularly. If you write it down, you’ll have a clearer understanding of where you’re at in terms of: 

  • Are you eating enough? 

  • Are you getting enough nutritional value from what you’re eating? 

  • Are you likely to be maintaining, gaining or losing weight? 

 
Having a clearer understanding around this means you can adjust your diet accordingly. 
Eating well can take some time and it can feel cheaper to eat junk food. Of course, eating readily-made healthy food can be a bit more expensive, so it’s important to be prepared and make informed choices. If you’re not in control of the family budget, you could make requests for things to try and rustle up some recipes for the whole family.
