The very cold weather has finally arrived and its a big wake up call to your body today!
The first reaction is to stay indoors as much as possible and do your best to “hibernate” until april!!! Just like many animals do in the wild!
Then we have to get real and go about our daily lives the best we can.
So now we have got over the fact that we are not going to curl and freeze for the winter, its time to set out a plan!!
Most of you won’t be on salads for the winter, and you may be already switching to hotter, more filling foods already.
The great news is that you can easily stay fit and healthy in the winter and all of this cold weather is no excuse to go into your shell, or “pig out” on fatty and sugary food!
Take soups for example. Are you the type to make your own version of soup full of natural ingredients or the type to rely on tins of soup? The difference can be startling!
For one, the soup you make naturally has the opportunity to be full of vegetables and a good nourishing meat if you fancy meat.
The soup in a tin is absolutely loaded with salt and usually sugar which is seriously bad news for your health. Salt and excess salt is the best way to develop problems with blood pressure and water retention, so if you want to feel horrid and bloated, go ahead and stick to the tins!!!!
If you’re into feeling and looking healthy, then this winter you STILL need to make fresh natural food your absolute priority!!! Without eating well, you won’t get anywhere near your goals in health terms so its important right now NOT to fall into the trap of tinned toup and other high salt and sigar products. There are lots of winter vegetables you can use to make soups and broths that will nourish your body in a first class way!!
The ideal time to commit yourself to a whole winter of healthy eating is today so lets give it your best!
