Introduction

If you’re looking to extend your lifespan, improve your overall

health and look and feel your very best, you’ll want to read every

word in this special report dedicated to highlighting the top

evidence-based health and nutrition tips.

When it comes to living your healthiest life, it isn’t always easy to

know where to begin. Even health professionals often have

differing opinions in regards to what is considered healthy and

what isn’t. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

That aside, there’s a ton of evidence to support the following

health and nutrition tips. In fact, all the information in this special

report is based on extensive research rather than opinion.

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 5

Page 6: Evidence Based Health & Nutrition Tips …  · Web viewevery word in this special report. dedicated to highlighting the . top evidence-based health and nutrition tips. When it comes

That way, there will be no differing opinions because the

information is based on extensive, time-tested research and not

on some current fad or trend in the healthy lifestyle community.

Why is this so important?

Because when it comes to your health, the last thing you want to

do is follow advice that isn’t grounded in hard evidence. Instead,

you should always base your dietary and lifestyle changes on

proven research.

From what type of foods will improve your body’s ability to self-

repair, to the top nutritional tips that will help you live a vibrant,

energetic and joyful life, you’ll have all the information you need

to live a longer, healthier life.

This includes:

How to immediately minimize your risks of suffering from

type 2 diabetes, obesity or high blood pressure.

You Are What You Eat

You’ve likely heard the saying, you are what you eat, and when it

comes to living the healthiest you possible, no truer words have

ever been spoken.

Quite simply, a healthy life begins with the foods you eat. What

you put into your system ultimately dictates how you look and

feel.

Makes sense, right? More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

A diet that consists of high-sugar foods, for example, isn’t

designed to sustain a healthy lifestyle. Those kinds of foods will

rob you of energy and leave you feeling lifeless and bloated, not

to mention the havoc it wreaks on your blood sugar levels and

puts you at risk of many illnesses.

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 8

Page 9: Evidence Based Health & Nutrition Tips …  · Web viewevery word in this special report. dedicated to highlighting the . top evidence-based health and nutrition tips. When it comes

Start by thinking about how you feel after you eat certain foods.

Do you feel sick? Do you feel bloated? Are you tired? Run down?

Paying attention to the way foods make you feel is key in

changing your diet so that it supports a stronger, healthier body.

Few of us analyze the way foods change the way we feel or affect

our moods, but when we start to pay close attention, we discover

just how easy it is to boost energy levels, improve our ability to

focus and simply feel at our best just by eliminating these harmful

foods from our diet.

Pro Tip: Consider creating a food diary or journal that documents

the foods you eat. Start writing everything down for 30 days.

After each meal, write down what foods you ate, portion size and

how you are feeling. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

Keeping track of how you are fueling your body, as well as how

those foods are influencing how you feel both physically and

mentally, is the first step towards identifying food-toxins so you

can set yourself on a better, healthier path by eliminating them

from your life. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

Some of these foods may be obvious ones that you know are

unhealthy while others may come as a surprise. Therefore, it’s

important to create a logbook of 30 days (minimum) so you not

only have a detailed snapshot of how the foods you’re eating may

be impacting your health, but over the course of a month, you’ll

begin to develop a habit of considering healthier choices.

A food journal should also include a total calorie count so that you

can reflect on the kinds of foods that are likely the leading cause

of any weight-struggles you may have.

2 Foods to Avoid For Long-Term Health

When it comes to living a healthier life, there are a couple of

harmful toxins that you’ll want to quickly remove from your diet.

These foods are notorious for wreaking havoc on our systems and

leaving us feeling depleted of energy and unable to focus and

thrive.

Worse, these foods ultimately increase our health risks in many

ways, putting us in serious danger, so the sooner you can

eliminate them from your life, the better.

1: Sugary Calories

It should come as no surprise that sugar wreaks havoc on your

system. It can mess with your blood sugar and even with your

brain since it doesn’t quite measure calories in the same way it

does solid food. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

In fact, weight gain and heart health are just the tip of the iceberg

when it comes to how toxic sugar is on your system.

Sugary drinks are also associated with type 2 diabetes, obesity

and heart disease, just to name a few.

In fact, studies have shown that people who consume high-levels

of fructose are in great danger of developing fatty liver disease

because of the way excess sugar ends up stuck to your organs

rather than being eliminated from your body.

Sadly, a report by the American Heart Association (AHA)

discovered that the average American consumes approximately

22 teaspoons of sugar every single day rather than limiting

consumption to only 6-9 teaspoons as recommended by health

professionals!

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 12

So, by minimizing the number of sugary calories in your diet,

you’ll not only minimize your risks, but you’ll eliminate a good

portion of wasted calories: these are calories that don’t provide

nourishment or sustenance. They simply add inches to your

waistline.

Need help getting over your sugar cravings? Here are a couple

easy ways to get started:

Replace fruit juice with raw fruits:

Satisfy your sweet tooth and sugar cravings without risking your

health by replacing fruit juice with raw fruits such as grapes or

mangoes. Not only will they provide the sweet fix you’re looking

for, but they’ll help stop sugar cravings in its tracks.

Eat Dark Chocolate:

When you’re dealing with a sugar craving consider replacing high-

sugar snacks with dark chocolate. Not only will this help curb

sugar cravings but studies have shown that the antioxidant and

anti-inflammatory compounds found in dark chocolate help

improve your overall heart health! More Info Go To

www.viralwithus.com

Just make sure that you stick with chocolate that contains more

than 70% cocoa.

So now you better understand the way sugar affects your body

and the many reasons you should minimize your daily intake, but

there’s yet another common culprit hidden amongst our shelves

and pantries and if sugar had an evil twin, this would be it!

Processed Foods

Processed foods are anything where there is some form of

chemical processing involved. More Info Go To

www.viralwithus.com

While everything we eat is processed in some way, there’s a

difference between mechanical processing (such as in harvesting

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 14

Page 15: Evidence Based Health & Nutrition Tips …  · Web viewevery word in this special report. dedicated to highlighting the . top evidence-based health and nutrition tips. When it comes

fruits and vegetables, for example) and chemical processing

where unhealthy, artificial substances are injected into the foods.

These processed foods are loaded with all kinds of toxins,

including sugar but they’re also filled with dozens of artificial

ingredients that you may not even recognize.

In fact, many of them have been carefully engineered to trigger

pleasure sensors that provide temporary satisfaction while

tricking your brain into overeating. More Info Go To

www.viralwithus.com

Bottom line: Processed foods are high in unhealthy ingredients

such as preservatives, colorants and flavor chemicals, while low in

important nutrients and proteins that your body needs to thrive.

Processed food can become just as addictive as sugar because it

messes with your brain chemistry, hijacking your body’s natural

and of course, that leads to obesity.

What We Learned from Harvard

Now that we’ve covered 2 of the greatest toxins, it’s time to shift

gears and focus on the foods we should be eating.

In 2011, Harvard Health Publishing released a visual health guide

that focused on the healthiest foods on earth and how much we

should be eating. They called this report, the Healthy Eating Plate;

a detailed blueprint for healthy eating and portion control based

on scientific research. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

Here’s just some of what they uncovered:

Increase your Fruits & Vegetable Intake

It should come as no surprise that most of us aren’t eating

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 17

Page 18: Evidence Based Health & Nutrition Tips …  · Web viewevery word in this special report. dedicated to highlighting the . top evidence-based health and nutrition tips. When it comes

enough fruits and vegetables, yet they carry some of the highest

levels of vitamins and nutrients of all the food groups. In fact, the

Healthy Eating Plate recommends that we fill half our plate with

fruits and vegetables.

Some of the best fruits and vegetables are:

Spinach

This is a very nutrient-dense superfood and is one of the

healthiest foods on earth. Spinach is loaded with nutrients and

vitamins including Vitamin A, Vitamin K and essential folate, while

being low on calories.

Beets

Beets are good for the heart and great for the brain. They’re also

excellent for lowering blood pressure! These powerful root

vegetables are filled with Vitamin C, magnesium and folate.

Avocado

Consuming just 1-2 avocados every week will provide you with all

the benefits of monounsaturated fats as well as loads of Vitamin

B6 and folate. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

Raspberries

Most fruits come loaded with antioxidants and raspberries are at

the top of the list. Loaded with Vitamin C, iron and calcium they

will provide you with a ton of nutrients while helping you curb

those sugar cravings.

Lemons

Lemons not only carry powerful anti-inflammatory qualifies but

they are proven to hinder the growth of cancer cells! They also

offer tons of vitamins including Vitamin C, phytonutrients and

folate. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

Eat Whole Grains

Harvard Health Publishing also recommends that we fill ¼ of our

plates with whole grains. This includes things like barley, quinoa,

Healthy Plant Oils

When it comes to how we cook our foods, we need to be careful

not to use unhealthy fats. Instead, swap them out for sunflower,

peanut, olive, canola and other healthy vegetable oils.

And if you’re a coffee drinker, you’ll be pleased to know that

coffee is healthy for you! Replace sugary drinks with water,

coffee or tea. Just be careful not to load your coffee or tea with

sugars or creams.

Healthiest Foods on Earth

We all have a good idea as to what we should and shouldn’t eat.

We’ve also been taught that a well-balanced diet is the key to a

longer, healthier life. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

But, what are the healthiest foods of them all?

It should come as no surprise that kale is amongst the healthiest

foods available to us. Not only is it loaded with minerals, vitamins

and antioxidants but kale provides our body with the natural fiber

needed for optimum health.

Tip: Kale can be rather bitter so if you find yourself struggling to

eat enough, consider putting it into soups or stews. Chances are

you won’t even notice it! More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 21

Next up, garlic. This is a food that we find in many of our favorite

dishes, including sauces, roasts and stews and it’s no wonder: not

only does it add incredible flavor to our dishes, but it’s loaded

with Vitamins C, B1 and B6.

Then we have seaweed. This is an extraordinarily nutritious food,

but it’s not one that many of us consume on a regular basis so

we’ll have to look for ways to incorporate it into our diet. It’s

worth the effort though because seaweed is loaded with minerals

like iron, calcium, magnesium and manganese, some of which

aren’t found in other fruits and vegetables.

Seaweed is also notorious for reducing inflammation because of

its high levels of antioxidants! More Info Go To

www.viralwithus.com

Then we have shellfish. If you’re looking to improve your overall

health you’ll want to start incorporating shellfish such as clams,

crab, lobster or oysters into your diet because they’re known as

Evidence-Based Health & Nutrition Tips: Special Report 22

Page 23: Evidence Based Health & Nutrition Tips …  · Web viewevery word in this special report. dedicated to highlighting the . top evidence-based health and nutrition tips. When it comes

some of the best sources for vitamin B12 which impacts our

energy levels and overall mood.

Note: They’re also high in zinc, copper and Vitamin D, especially

oysters so consider including them in your next meal!

Salmon is low in fat and calories but very high in protein which

will make you feel fuller faster, helping you avoid over-eating.

Salmon is also known for its high levels of omega-3 fatty acids

which have been proven to boost brain activity, improve focus

and energy levels. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

And even more impressively, salmon has been proven to prevent

the onset of serious diseases because of its high levels of

magnesium, potassium and selenium, important minerals that our

body needs but never seems to get enough of.

And finally, we have blueberries. Not only are they loaded with

Live Your Best Life

We’ve discussed the different foods that you should work into

incorporating into your daily diet, but increased longevity and

optimum health go beyond what you’re putting into your mouth.

One of the most important aspects of living your best life is to get

plenty of rest. More Info Go To www.viralwithus.com

We can’t emphasize enough the importance of getting enough

sleep. Poor sleep can boost insulin resistance, interrupt hormone

levels and ultimately reduces both mental and physical

performance.

Further, lack of sleep will put you at risk of depression and anxiety

but it can also put you at risk of suffering a heart attack, high

blood pressure, stroke and diabetes.

It can also age you rapidly. Lack of sleep will first affect your

physical appearance, leaving you with premature wrinkling and

dark circles around your eyes. More Info Go To

www.viralwithus.com

Over time, chronic sleep deprivation can increase your levels of

the stress hormone, cortisol, which will break down collagen,

reducing your skin elasticity and making you look twice your age.

Sleep is no joke. Make sure that you make it a priority to get

enough sleep every night.

Not sure how much sleep you should get?

According to the National Sleep Foundation, who created a report

based on two years of research, the average person between 36-

64 years of age should be getting 7-9 hours of sleep a day.

Teenagers between the ages of 14-17, should get 8-10 hours of

Final Words

Living a healthy life starts with a well-balanced diet that includes

the healthiest foods on earth. It also requires adequate sleep and

of course, regular exercise.

Start by creating a lifestyle plan that includes a well-rounded diet.

Consider planning your meals at the start of every week, including

snacks. That way you can carefully plan in advance and avoid

binge-eating.

Then, do your best to incorporate foods that are high in nutrients

and vitamins while minimizing toxic foods such as sugar and

processed meals.

Every high calorie meal you replace with a healthier alternative is

one step towards creating habits that support a healthier lifestyle.

Take it one day at a time. Consider using a health journal so you

can document your meals, exercise, and sleep pattern. Figure out

what works best for you over time so you can begin to eliminate

the habits and routines that cause you to get off course.

Don’t beat yourself up if you make mistakes; we all do. It’s

impossible to always eat healthy. Sometimes life gets in the way.

The key is to do the best you can and to always be conscious of

what you’re putting into your body and how it ultimately affects

your ability to feel at your best. More Info Go To
