A good diet is important for a healthy life full of energy. If you want to live amazingly and still enjoy your fair share of food you should think about including tasty snacks in your daily life. I know it’s complicated to think about cooking extra and paying attention to details. This is why the following list will save you from putting in too much work. Take a look!
I admit I love Jamie Oliver. He has a relaxed attitude and he is passionate about cooking. Whenever I see him doing what he knows best it fascinates me terribly. Why? Because I see in front of me a person who is completely absorbed by what he does and who gives everything in order to produce a unique and tasty dish. And he does this without the slightest hint of effort.
But just because he is in the food industry it doesn’t mean that he encourages reckless eating and processed food. In fact he is a strong advocate of adopting a balanced diet that can diminish the risks of obesity and diet related diseases. He supports good eating, home-cooked meals and a good gastronomic education.
Further on you will see a TED speech that Jamie Oliver delivered in 2010. Here there are stories related to the anti-obesity project he developed in Huntington, West Virginia. These are all powerful facts that still affect the society in which we live. The statistics show that in the last couple of years people’s diets have changed dramatically and not in the good way. What you eat has plenty of circumstances over your body and can have a negative impact over your lifespan!
We are finally here: it’s New Year’s Eve! We are leaving behind a spectacular year, filled with love, resentment, excitement, frustration, tears and smiles. These don’t apply to everyone but sure enough everyone has gone through a lot this year.
Some of you are eager to finish this year and move on to the next one, hoping it will be better. Others miss this year and hope to have one at least as great as the one that has passed. Hope is the only thing that should keep us motivated to move forward and make 2015 our year. Besides hope there is also a big of superstition in line. What should you wear or eat on this magical day if you want to have success in the year to come?
1. Round fruits – this is a popular New Year’s tradition around the world although it varies according to location. For instance while in the Philippines is customary to eat 13 pieces of fruits (13 is considered lucky), in Europe or the US people eat 12 pieces symbolizing each month of the year. Why? For good luck!
Junk food has become a serious issue in today’s world. More and more people have less time to eat a well cooked meal and prefer to grab something fast that can feed their immediate hunger. Even when they are on the road they tend to recur to unhealthy food to shush that stomach and keep on going.
But is this always a good idea? A dish that contains processed food will quench the hunger but it doesn’t include nutrients and proteins that maintain the organism healthy and balanced. And the fast food chains existent around the world are not even trying to ease things by adding healthy products in their menus.
As a cry for help, Caitlin Levin and Henry Hargreaves have collaborated in order to create the Junk Food Man project. This is a very interesting presentation of the process of creating a man exclusively out of junk food. While it might seem like a fun activity, it is not as easy as one might think to combine together all that junk food in order to get the perfect combo.
