For many years now, the Malaysian diet has been too high in all things unhealthy. Vegetables, fruits and grains have taken a backseat to curry laksa, lontong and mamak mee goreng. This has made us very vulnerable to heart and blood vessel diseases, not to mention a whole range of ailments.
You can make a huge difference to your heart and general health by making a few simple changes to your eating habits. Start gradually, and see how many of these changes you can incorporate into your daily diet.
- Make vegetables a major part of at least one meal each day, and eat plenty of fruits especially before your meal, not after.
- Choose wholegrain breads more often instead of the refined white varieties.
- Eat more cereals (rice, pasta & other grains) and legumes (peas & beans). If you are making western dish for your family, try flavouring it with small amounts of lean meat, rather than centering the whole meal around meat.
- Use small amounts of very lean meats, and eat poultry without skin. The breast part of poultry has the least fat.
- Choose low-fat dairy products (milk, yogurt, cheese).
- Eat fish at least twice a week, but don't fry it. The Chinese preparation of steamed fish is the healthiest. Baked and grilled fish are also good.
- Make high-fat and/or high sugary bakery products (danish, doughnuts, etc), fast-foods, desserts, soft drinks and confectionary occasional treats rather than everyday food. A rich dessert doesn't need to be served everyday!
- Use monounsaturated or polyunsaturated oils (olive, canola, sunfalower, safflower) for cooking.
- Use small amount of margerine spreads or olive oil instead of butter.
- Grill, boil, steam, bake or microwave rather than fry.
- Reduce your salt & sugar intake.
- Drink plenty of water...(body weight x 0.07 = daily water intake). Make it a habit to drink at least 2 liters of water daily to help your body flush out the toxins & helps burn the fat much faster.
Knowingly or unknowingly, we all strive to eat healthily, exercise more and, thus, aim for a healthy lifestyle. It may not always be easy, but with determination and motivation, it is possible. Staying trim & healthy when young can lead to a healthier, more mobile old age. Don't we all want that?
