4 Meal Routines To Keep You Healthy
The recent global pandemic which made the world come to a standstill, has added valuable learnings to our routine life. For me it was the need to reboot my health & go deeper into understanding my body’s health needs- things I can do on my own to be ready to fight back in solidarity. Here, I am sharing a glimpse into my morning to evening meal routine to help you take some cues on how to plan your meals for the day.
- Power-Packed Breakfast: It not only gives you enough energy to begin the day but also keeps your blood sugar & cravings in check. A meal consisting of complex carbohydrates & good quality protein will serve the purpose
- Wholesome Lunch: A healthy lunch pays off both physically & mentally as it keeps your brain functioning efficiently. The key to a healthy lunch is by including all the major five food groups with macros and micros balanced (carbs, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals)
- Smart Snacking: Smart snacking is the way to go as it sustains energy levels & prevents you from mindless cravings. A handful of roasted makhana (fox nuts) can provide you fiber, calcium, protein & essential minerals
- Light & Early Dinner: Keep your dinners at least 3 hours prior to your bedtime to allow your body to gather enough energy to digest & assimilate nutrients properly without leading to indigestion or bloating
With the current situation I have also realised that along with the preparations for a healthy future we also need to be financially prepared to face these uncertainties.
Recently, for my financial planning, I came across an all-in-one term plan-ICICI Pru iProtect Smart. The plan offers a comprehensive life cover to secure your loved one’s future at affordable premiums*. It comes with an optional rider of critical illness^ through which you can avail upfront claim money if detected with any of the 34 critical illnesses covered without the need for medical bills. The plan also comes with the longstanding reputation of a stable brand like ICICI Prudential Life. So, let's all gear up, eat healthy & be prudent about the future. As small steps now can lead to better future.
