Great Healthy Tips: Slam the Brakes on Sugary Drinks

by

Beware of Sugary Drinks — Fruit juices, sodas, and flavored coffees are sugar bombs. Stick with water, herbal teas, or infused water.

This is good advice, put a stop sign on sugary drinks. There are three types of juice I drink every day. I drink pure beet juice and 100% pomergante juice. I limit myself to 3 oz. I use a bathroom paper cup. I put pure lemon juice in a glass of water first thing in the morning and microwave it for 30 secs.

    5 health Fridge Foods

      1. Turkey – It’s low in fat and sodium, and high in protein. And versatile, too: Wrap some turkey breast in a whole-wheat tortilla for a snack or take it to work for lunch.
      2. Salsa – Make some yourself — it’s a healthy, easy way to put some zip into egg dishes, soups, and sauces. Use it instead of oily dressings on vegetables and heartier salads, too.
      3. Hummus – This Middle Eastern dip — traditionally made with chickpeas, garlic, and olive oil — is low in fat and calories and high in protein and fiber. Chickpeas are legumes, which can be good for people with high blood pressure and diabetes. They also can lower your cholesterol and may help protect you against cancer.
      4. 100% Fruit Juice – Freshly squeezed juice can be a good source of certain vitamins and minerals, but because it’s almost always high in sugar, you should drink it in moderation. One way to stretch it out is to add it to your seltzer for a kind of low-calorie “soft drink” with some nutritional value.
      5. Whole Wheat Tortillas – Freshly squeezed juice can be a good source of certain vitamins and minerals, but because it’s almost always high in sugar, you should drink it in moderation. One way to stretch it out is to add it to your seltzer for a kind of low-calorie “soft drink” with some nutritional value.
