In order to have a beautiful body, you need to take food that is fresh, healthy and low in cholesterol. As the high cholesterol level increases fat accumulation, therefore, it is wise to avoid junk, oily and other unhealthy foods.

My Voucher Codes has created a list of foods that must be used to maintain a healthy body. The good news is lots of these foods can be purchased at a discounted price.

Importance of Cholesterol

This certainly doesn’t mean that cholesterol is not good for you and that you have to eliminate it completely. Good cholesterol is extremely important for the cells to remain alive and it is needed to make vitamin D, which is necessary for the making of fatty acids that help in metabolism.

Balanced Diet

Keeping a balance between good cholesterol and bad cholesterol is very vital. Good healthy food is a combination of fish, chicken, red meat, vegetables, eggs and fruits.

Importance of Fish

Fish is one of the most important foods containing the very vital omega-3 components that help reduce blood clots, thus preventing heart diseases. Diabetic patients are also advised to consume fish weekly, as omega-3 enables their body to create healthy cells, thus cut diabetes risk.

Need for Nuts and Beans

Nuts and beans not only contain proteins, but also B vitamins (niacin, thiamin, riboflavin, B6 and B12), vitamin E, fibre, magnesium, zinc and iron. Pecans, pistachios, peanuts, seeds, corns should be taken as per your doctor’s advice.

Red Meat Essentials

Red meat is also another essential healthy food, but one must not forget that meat is extremely high in fats and taking too much it can cause health issues. Meat should be taken once or twice a week.

It contains vitamin B12, zinc, iron and protein. Shalene McNeil, PhD, executive director of nutrition research for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association says, “One 3-ounce serving of lean beef contributes only 180 calories, but you get 10 essential nutrients.”

Dairy Products

Now here comes the dairy products that have quite a wrong label on them. Most people avoid cheese, butter, terming them foods that cause a person to become fat. But the fact is that these foods are very important for bones to remain strong and healthy, and maintain healthy blood pressure.

However, it is a fact that these foods do contain a high level of saturated fats, so in order to avoid that, you can opt for low-fat butter or yoghurt. Do not completely eliminate them from your plan, as they have many benefits.

Benefits of Fruits and Vegetables

Lastly, it is very important for you to consume fruits and vegetables, as they are naturally low in fat and calories, are important sources of many nutrients, including potassium, dietary fibre, folate (folic acid), vitamin A, and vitamin C, rich in potassium and are rich in dietary fibre.

All these foods must be a part of your diet. How much you should use is a question that must be asked of your nutritionist. Saying this, Acorn Stairlifts has great advice on eating pasta and living with diabetes.
