How to eat healthy & feel awesome?

Often times, we tend to associate healthy eating with living in deprivation, suffering, or a sacrifice, but in fact it’s all about making smart choices. We need to make sure that we consume food from all food groups in right quantities. A single food group is not enough to provide the essential nutrients to keep ourselves healthy. The basic food groups include whole grains, fruits, vegetables, proteins, and dairy products. Each food group has different serving size and there is a reason for doing that way. Eating a good mix of food types throughout the day not only makes you feel awesome but helps you reduce the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and cancer as well.
