Healthy eating
Tag details
There are many diets, diet books, and fads, but the basics of healthy eating have been known for a long time.
A healthy human diet should compromise lots of vegetables and fruit, and starchy foods such as bread, cereals, and pasta (ideally whole-grain), some foods strong in protein such as meat, eggs, and pulses, and some milk and dairy foods.
Most Western diets are far too high in fat, sugar, and salt - and also simply include too many calories - leading to health problems such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. There is much debate over whether this is down to bad individual choices, or actions by the food and advertising industries that have created an unhealthy environment.

Kansas Dad and I were ambitious in the kitchen last night. We made pumpkin masoor dal and were pleased with the results.

Some of my friends with autism insist on the same foods in their lunch box at school or work every single day. This intolerance for change can be very difficult to crack.

Another bottle of Raw Honey. My friend only called it “white honey” in Mandarin. Is it clover? I really don’t know which flower is it. Somehow, the taste is unique. Very light. And, taste a bit sour. Totally different from the previous one with light but very sweet taste. It’s superior quality. Even the price ...3 hours ago -
