Eating better doesn't have to be complicated. In fact, it's pretty simple if you break it down into a few key points. And that's what I'm going to do for you in this e-book. I'm going to give you the rundown on how to eat better, in a way that's easy to understand and put into practice.
First off, let's talk about the importance of a balanced diet.
A balanced diet is one that includes a variety of different foods from all the different food groups. That includes fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats in your daily meals. Now, I know some of you may be thinking, "But Tom, I don't like vegetables!" Well, I'm here to tell you that there are plenty of delicious ways to incorporate more fruits and vegetables into your diet. You can try roasting them with a little olive oil and your favourite seasonings, or crisping them with an air fryer.
Now this is a big one, let's talk about portion control. It's no secret that portion sizes in the U.K. have gotten out of control in recent years. But don't let that discourage you. One of the easiest ways to eat better is to pay more attention to the amount of food you're putting on your plate. A good rule of thumb is to make sure you fill half your plate with vegetables, and half with protein. And don't be afraid to listen to your body's cues. Eat until you're not hungry anymore instead of eating to full. That way you can avoid feeling stuffed!
Most people forget about the importance of cooking at home. Now, I'm not saying you have to give up eating out completely. But if you want to eat better, it's important to have control over the ingredients that go into your food. And the best way to do that is by cooking at home. Not only will it save you money, but it will also give you the opportunity to experiment with new and healthy ingredients. And if you're feeling intimidated by the idea of cooking, don't be. There are plenty of easy and delicious recipes out there that even a beginner can master. And if you want more help, you can reach out to me for some easy-to-follow guides.

And finally, the importance of being mindful about the food we eat. It's important to be mindful of the food we eat and how it makes us feel. Pay attention to how different foods make you feel, both physically and mentally. And if you notice that a certain food makes you feel sluggish or bloated, it might be time to cut back on it.
