You’ve heard the quote, “You are what you eat.” Think about that next time you have a choice between a healthy snack like fruit or raw nuts and an unhealthy snack full of preservatives. There’s a reason for people going “all natural” with the food they eat. Processed foods tend to have lots of preservatives, artificial colors, sweeteners and flavors that give it an unnatural, longer shelf life. So go for the raw nuts and seeds. They are high in Omega 3 oils, which may reduce the risk of heart disease and arthritis and improve cognitive & behavioral function. 

Beauty & wellness start from within so make it part of your morning routine to take vitamins. Although most vitamins and minerals can be found in the foods we eat, sometimes we don’t get enough so it’s important to take supplements. Vitamins and nutrients play a vital role in your overall health and appearance. Consult your doctor for a list of vitamins you should be taking to boost your overall health. Different vitamins help with bone & joint health, heart health, immune system defense, metabolism, energy, provide mental clarity, combat stress, keep your skin healthy & smooth and much more! Planet Beach has supplement packs called Enrich with nutrients to help keep you beautiful inside & out.

One of the fundamental nutrition principles is making sure you eat the most important meal of the day…. which of course we’ve ALL heard is breakfast! Eating a healthy breakfast not only helps you maintain a more nutritionally complete diet, it can also improve concentration and give you strength to engage in physical activity. Try to eat protein rich foods like eggs or a protein shake like Planet Beach’s Indulge to help keep you full until lunchtime.

Some people believe calories are the “enemy.” However, the human body NEEDS calories to function properly. Your daily calorie need depends on your height, weight, age and physical activity level. So check with your doctor or nutritionist to find out what your daily calorie intake should be. Once you figure that out, you can create a nutrition plan specific to your health & weight goals. When you do, just make sure that your proportions are in check for each meal. Most nutritionists say your dinner plate should have: 2 cupped hands of veggies, a clenched fist of carbs, meat should fit in the palm of your hand (fish = size of your whole hand) To make it easier to control portion sizes, use smaller dinner plates, fill your plate with veggies first, and stick to portion sizes on food labels.

As you can see, what, when & how much you eat plays a major role in your overall health & wellness. Make sure you are getting the right nutrition to keep you strong, vibrant and beautiful from the inside, out.
