ü A
healthy lifestyle will assist your natural body clock to get back into peak
wellness as soon as you decide to make that change.
ü One of
the body’s regulators of healthy living is the control or balance of your blood
sugar.
ü To keep
your blood sugar even and put you back in control, you should not leave more
than three to four hours between meals or snacks.
ü Set the
time for when you will eat. For example, 7am breakfast, 10am snack, 1pm lunch,
4pm snack, and 7pm light supper.
ü If you
are an early morning person, you will be famished when you wake up.
ü Listen
to your body and refuel with healthy nutrients that will get you through the
day.
ü Top up
at 10am with a mini meal; enjoy a hearty lunch that will prevent the afternoon
slump.
ü Top up
again at 4pm also with a mini meal and end off your day with something light
and easy to digest before going to bed.
ü If you
are a late night person, the last thing on your mind so early in the day is
breakfast. That is ok as long as you have something substantial at about 10am.
Your nutritional clock will just start later in the day. You may have your
lunch at 2pm a snack at 5pm, light supper at 8pm and even a mini snack before
bed.
ü The
whole point of nutrition is to fuel up when your body requires fuel.
ü Eating
a huge meal late at night and then sitting watching television is a recipe for
disaster which will lead to obesity, diabetes and other problems.
