For lunch and dinner, flax seeds can be added to different dishes such as the classic fried chicken, lasagna, and even stir-fried vegetable. Even the regular lentil soup can be more flavorful and exciting with added flaxseed in it.
Flax seeds can even be mixed with your favorite dessert drinks. Chocolate smoothies and chocolate milkshake with flaxseed can satisfy your chocolate cravings and at the same time your nutritional requirements since it is packed with omega 3 ALA (alpha linolenic acid), antioxidants, fiber and lignans. Different types of fruit shakes can also be combined with flaxseed to have that healthy and awesome refreshment.

When you’re busy and always on the go, you have lesser time to prepare your own food. More often than not, what you whisk up yourself is a lot healthier from what you buy for takeout.
Compare the calories you can have from ordering an up-sized double cheese burger, greasy onion rings or fries, and soda to that of a turkey sandwich with 2 whole grain slices of bread, some mayo and pickle relish, and a freshly squeezed orange juice to go with it. You do not have to bring in the calculator to compute up the calories because it is evident even by just looking at it that you are taking in more calories from your takeout meal.
Just the same, people tend to eat faster taking in big bites of to-go food. When ordinarily, you should be eating small bites at a time to make you feel fuller ’til the next time you eat.
Order takeout less. If you’re overweight, your risk of heart disease doubles. But eating just one fewer restaurant or take-out entrée, which can easily pack in 1,000 calories, each week for a year can be enough to help you loose 15 pounds.
Now, there’s one healthy you coming up!

It is common knowledge that food is a staple in our daily life. We need energy to last the whole day through. The body needs nourishment and this is what every food provides. People need to eat three full meals a day and two snacks in between, ideally. But most people can not control themselves from eating more than they should. The body can only take in as much everyday. After the food has been chewed down, the stomach grinds it and the nutrients that will be taken from it and the fats that will be burned will be distributed as an energy source throughout our body.

If there is too much to digest, the metabolism rate of the stomach slows down and in the process more fat is stored in the body. Your waist and hips are usually what grows big right after. And this condition brings about imminent problems to your well-being.
Over and under nourishment are both not good for your body. Measure your waist and hips. Then divide your waist by your hip size. If the result tops 0.8, excess visceral belly fat could be putting your heart at risk.
To live a healthy life, eat healthy.
