Eating your way to a healthier lifestlye

Energy is what keeps our engines running and gives us the "go go go" to our day.
Without energy, we would have no motivation to complete the daily tasks of our lives.

For me, one of the biggest sources of energy in my daily life is the food that I put into my body. But it's the GOOD food that I put into my body. I can tell a difference in my actions and the way I feel if I eat fast food compared to eating lots of greens and protein. We all know that this is tempting: a tasty, salty meal of french fries and a quarter-pounder with cheese. However, after eating fast food, I feel like I am in a food coma. I feel sluggish, weak, and I only want to sleep.

When I put the right foods into my body, like lots of fruits, vegetables, chicken, cottage cheese, yogurt and nuts, I feel so much better. I feel like I'm leading a healthier life and have more energy to conquer the tasks of my day. This is why I always strive for healthy eating habits.
