All of us want to lead a healthier lifestyle, but long-term commitment for it is a difficult task. But did you know that making small changes to your lifestyle can actually yield good results with visible results in weight loss and an overall improved state of well-being? Here are some tips to help you start living a healthier life…

1. Say No to soda
   We don’t actually estimate how many calories sodas have; even one a day can affect your natural ability to digest food, and impacts the storehouse of calcium in your body.
2. Smaller meals in short duration
   Many people believe they need to consume three meals per day, but studies show the opposite is true. In fact, consuming smaller meals with short intervals of time helps you digest food better, burn the calories consumed, and eventually will help with weight loss. So design your meal plan with this in mind and create smaller portions eaten more frequently.
3. Include green tea in your diet
   Green tea has metabolism boosting properties to help burn fat and improve overall digestion. Studies have shown that people who consume green tea daily tend to lose weight and it prevents in weight gain.
4. Eat lean meat and protein
   Protein is full of nutrition and it also emits a hormone in the brain called Leptin, which makes you feel full, despite eating less food. A good tip is to remove the extra fats and add lean meat in your diet, up to two to three servings per day. Meat and protein also helps you get more energy and improves your metabolism.
5. Drink more water
   Water has amazing qualities to boost your metabolism as it is related to hydration. When your body is less hydrated, it has low metabolism as well, therefore a good amount of water consumed each day will help you achieve good metabolism and promotes optimal hydration of the entire body.
