► Choose Healthy Fats. The type of fats we eat make a big difference in our health. Research shows that fats from fish, vegetables, and nuts, actually promote good health.
► Eat Less Processed Meats. Many processed meats contain nitrates, implicated in cancer. The compounds formed by browning or charring meat, poultry, and fish are linked to disease.
► Eat More Whole Foods. Eating more whole foods increases your consumption of fiber and complex carbohydrates and cuts your intake of dietary pitfalls such as simple sugars, refined carbs, and salt.
► Be Portion-Aware. Stick with right-size portions and set aside leftovers. Start with filling half your plate with vegetables. Using salad plates instead of dinner plates is also a great way to start.
