Day by Dé Tips
We all want and need to execute at the highest-level daily, and taking proper care of ourselves, from a nutrition perspective, will enable us to do so. However, we all want to be healthy, but are unsure of the basic steps that will provide us with optimal health.
Coming from a family that eats, sleeps, and spreads the gospel of nutrition, this is the beginning of a series on practical nuggets that will improve your overall health.
1. Begin the day with hot water and lemon. This is effective for detoxification, and also when you are sick.
2. Eat one-half of a red apple daily. Eating apples daily help lower your cholesterol (the pectin inside the apples does this). In addition to lowering cholesterol, apples contain a double fiber combination that reduces the risk of hardening the arteries, heart attack, and stroke. Finally, apples are a great way to promote healthy liver function
3. Eat one-third cup of beets everyday (for serious). Beets are a great source of Vitamin C, potassium, and iron. They also have beta-carotene, which is a powerful antioxidant that fights cancer.
4. Eat one carrot (medium to large, with the skin on) per day. Carrots protect against cancer and cardiovascular disease, and are rich in Vitamins A, C, and K. Carrots also are great for skin and eyesight.
Hopefully this won’t scare you away from our blog, we’re here to help!
