Health is wealth!

The foods we choose make a difference. It’s possible to stay healthy. There are a few super simple things to keep yourself healthy that I learned from Dr. Greger’s book „How Not To Die“.

Here are a few things that you can do daily to stay easily healthy.

9 Easy Ways To Stay Healthy 

#1 – Spice it up

And make your meals even healthier with antioxidants in a pinch. You’ll find the most antioxidants in herbs and spices. So, add some turmeric or sprinkle a single teaspoon full of oregano or marjoram on your food. Being healthy doesn’t get any easier than this easy habit.

Some of Dr. Greger’s favorite spices:

¼ teaspoon of turmeric and 1 teaspoon basil, bay leaves, chili, cinnamon, cumin, curry powder, dill, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, marjoram, mustard powder, nutmeg, oregano, smoked paprika, parsley, pepper, rosemary, thyme,

#2 – Cook more Indian food

India is known to have very low cancer rates. Tumeric might be the reason and the healthy food that they eat on a regular basis such as dark leafy greens, legumes, beans, chickpeas, and lentils.

#3 – Eat your greens

Kale is known for its superpower. You can add some sauteed kale to your meals. If you’re like me and are having a hard time eating salads or greens a green smoothie is the way to go.

#4 – Get the right amount of sleep

…which is known to be 7-8 hours per night. Higher stroke rates were found among individuals sleeping six hours or less – or nine hours or more.

#5 – Add flaxseeds to your diet

…1 tablespoon of ground flaxseeds – It helps you to lose weight, it’s detoxing, and a great source of omega 3 for beautiful skin and hair. Plus, it’s so easy to add to your daily diet. Simply mix it in with your smoothie, yogurt, in any sauce or soup, sprinkle it onto your salad, or mix it in your porridge.

#6 – Include more fiber in your daily diet

High fiber intake appears to reduce the risk of cancers of the colon and breast, diabetes, heart disease, obesity. Therefore, include some beans, oats, nuts, berries, brown rice, whole wheat, and dates.

#7 – Go nuts

Eat about 30 g or 2 tablespoons of nut butters (peanut butter etc) daily.

#8 – Incorporate whole grains

…about 100g of oatmeal, rice, buckwheat, amaranth, quinoa or cooked pasta.

#9 – Use vinegar as your salad dressing

It has way fewer calories and sugar than other salad dressings. Also, vinegar has a lot of health benefits – try to include it in your diet with salad, sushi, dipping bread in balsamic vinegar. Plus, it helps a lot with weight loss.

9 Einfache tägliche Gewohnheiten, um gesund zu bleiben

In seinem Buch „How not to die“ erklärt Dr. Greger ein paar supereinfache Dinge, die man in seinem Alltag integrieren kann, um gesund zu bleiben.

#1 – Würzen!

Die meisten Antioxidantien befinden sich in Kräutern und Gewürzen. Daher einfach etwas Kurkuma oder Oregano auf das Essen geben. Einfacher geht’s nicht.

Das sind die Favoriten von Dr. Greger:

¼ TL Kurkume, 1 TL Basilikum, Lorbeerblätter, Chilli, Zimt, Kreuzkümmel, Currypulver, Dill, Knoblauch, Ingwer, Zitronengras, Majoran, Senfpulver, Muskatnuss, Oregano, Paprikapulver, Petersilie, Pfeffer, Rosmarin, Thymian

#2 – Mehr indisches Essen kochen

Indien hat bekanntermaßen sehr niedrige Krebsraten. Kurkuma und das gesunde Essen, das sie regelmäßig essen, könnte der Grund dafür sein. Sie ernähren sich hauptsächlich von dunklem Blattgemüse, Hülsenfrüchten, Bohnen, Kichererbsen und Linsen.

#3 – Grünzeug nicht vergessen

Entweder Salat oder Gemüse oder wenn man sich da schwer tut einfach einen grünen Smoothie täglich trinken.

#4 – Ausreichend Schlaf

… Das wären 7-8 Stunden pro Nacht. Höhere Schlaganfallraten wurden bei Personen festgestellt, die sechs Stunden oder weniger – oder neun Stunden oder mehr schliefen.

#5 – Füge 1 EL Leinsamen hinzu

… 1 Esslöffel gemahlene Leinsamen – Hilft beim Abnehmen, ist entgiftend und eine großartige Quelle für Omega 3 (schöne Haut und Haare). Außerdem ist es so einfach, das in seine Mahlzeit zu integrieren. Man kann es entweder in seinen Smoothie, Joghurt, Haferbrei, gekochtes Essen mit Sauce oder in die Suppe miteinmischen.

#6 – Ballaststoffe nicht vergessen

Durch eine ausreichende Ballaststoffaufnahme wird das Risiko für Dickdarm- und Brustkrebs, Diabetes, Herzerkrankungen und Fettleibigkeit verringert.

Das kann aufgenommen werden durch: Bohnen, Haferflocken, Nüsse, Beeren, Braunen Reis, Vollkornweizen und Datteln

#7 – Nüsse snacken

Es wird empfohlen täglich etwa 30 g/2 EL Nussbutter oder eine Handvoll Nüsse zu naschen.

#8 – Vollkornprodukte integrieren

… z.B. 100 g Haferflocken, Reis, Buchweizen, Amaranth, Quinoa oder gekochte Nudeln.

#9 – Essig als Salatdressing

Hat viel weniger Kalorien und Zucker als andere Salatdressings. Essig hat auch viele gesundheitliche Vorteile – außer als Dressing kann man es auch zum Sushi verwenden oder Brot in Balsamico-Essig mischen dippen (so wie im Restaurant). Außerdem hilft Essig beim Abnehmen.
