Eating Healthy

Eating healthy is one of the most important factors in leading a healthy lifestyle. However healthy eating is also one of the more expensive aspects of a healthy lifestyle, so I decided to make this Squidoo on how you can eat healthy cheaply so you still have that lovely holiday every summer.

I have looked around the web for actual tips on how to lead a healthy lifestyle but most of the results just point out the obvious; eat less, excercise more and dont eat fatty foods. I am pretty sure everyone reading this already knows that, so its time for some actual useful tips on how to eat healthy and cheaply.

Is healthy eating worthwhile?

Yes, it is important to remain healthy throughout your life and look good, inside and outside.

Yes, eating healthy is extremely important. I exercise a lot also and drink a lot of purified water. I'm fortunate that my office gets bottled water delivered in glass water bottles (from these guys www.glassbottledwaterdelivery.com) so I can drink very pure water for most of the day. For meals I try to eat a lot of fresh fruit/vegetables and whole grains.

    I appreciate the ideas and recipes. However, I do think some bottled waters are better than tap water or water that has only gone through basic filtration. For my health I opt for ultra-purified water that has been purified by ion exchange, reverse osmosis, ozonation and/or uv light.

    The honest truth is that it's a lot more expensive to eat healthy these days. If you're on a restricted budget, it's hard to buy fresh vegetables, etc. Good lens and great info !

    I agree with you. It is more expensive to buy fruits and vegetables than hamburger.

    Also, I don't agree that spices are good. Spiced dishes strengthen appetite and provoke overeating.
