1. Helps Lose Weight
Obesity and excess body weight are global health issues. Thankfully, mindful eating may help reduce this problem. Consuming more green leafy vegetables, whole fruits, healthy fats (PUFAs and MUFAs) (olive oil, fish oil, nuts, and seeds), lean protein (skinless chicken breast, fish, eggs, mushrooms, tofu, and lentils), and whole food nutrients lower calorie intake, increase satiety, and lower BMI.
Clean eating also gives natural nourishment and helps balance the hunger hormones (leptin and ghrelin), improves insulin sensitivity, and maintains normal thyroid function, which aids weight loss and helps you live a healthy life.
2. Helps Manage Diabetes
Type-2 diabetesi affects millions of people worldwide, irrespective of age. Unhealthy eating habits, obesity, insulin resistance, and genetic factors may lead to type 2 diabetes.
Changing your eating habits and lifestyle can certainly help reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and related complications. Avoid consuming excess sugary by opting for gluten-free alternatives and junk foods and replace these with nutritious substitutes. Eat healthy greens, beans, low-glycemic index foods, low-sugar substitutes such as dark chocolate, and healthy snacks to keep your cravings and hunger pangs at bay.
