Healthy Life

You are what you eat. So lets have a look at what we should be consuming for breakfast,Lunch and dinner.
1. Breakfast:
Start your day with a fresh juice with out sugar or a cup of Ginger Tea. Ginger Tea has stimulators which keeps your body and mind healthy. Have a moderate Breakfast with any one of these listed below. You get enough nutrition out of these:
A)Bread cubes or little cornflakes with Milk
B)Any one Indian tiffin.( idly with chutney or 1 dosa with Chutney)Please avoid Poha,Upma and Poori in the morning.
C)Sometimes a large cup of Complan or Horlicks substitues the above to give you equal amount of energy.
D)Crushed Oats or kelloggs powder with Milk or you also get OAT biscutes.
E) Boiled Eggs Two with Milk or with out Milk.
F)Freshly cut fruits with milk. Take large quantities of Pomegranate,Apple,Guava, water melon,musk melon and less quanitites of banana and mango because of its high sugar content.
So, a cup of fresh juice or tea combined with fruits or a mild cereal or tiffin is enough to start the day.
2.Lunch:
Try and take enough water or a cup of tea inbetween Breakfast and Lunch time. Avoid any kind of snack eateries between breakfast and lunch time as it adds to unwanted calories and does no good for health.Go directly for lunch at 1PM preferably .Try any of the alternatives:

B)Have two slices of carrot and salad each every day alont with the above menu.
C)Chutneys are often ignored while havign food.But chutneys have lot of medicinal value to the food.Try Amla, Pudina,Tomato,Corainder and ginger chutney along with the main menu as a side dish or mix it with rice.
D)The instant protein givers: Paneer,Meat,Chicken and Fish atleast twice or thrice a week.
E)Lentils,Legumes and Sprouts atleast thrice a week. (White channa,Black peas,Green peas,Rajma etc).Take it along with a mild spiced gravy which facilitates good absorption of the protein nutrition.
