Food Selection

Besides yoga, eating the right food is also very important to keep fit and healthy. People believe that if they avoid fried food, they are consuming a healthy diet, but their belief is far from reality. Choosing the right cereals, pulses, grains, nuts, milk etc. is also very important. For example, we should not buy polished rice and pulses. Instead, we should have non-polished rice and pulses.

In the case of nuts, we think that nuts are very healthy and nutritious so they are benefiting our body. When we buy peeled almonds, the oil has already been extracted from it and only the residue is given to us, which is not nutritious. Therefore, we should prefer buying unpeeled almonds from a reliable shop and not get manipulated by the packing so that these are healthy. While buying raisins, we should not buy the green ones because most of them have been washed in acids to make it appear green. Rather we should go for a more natural color which may not be attractive, but is surely healthier than the green ones.

Packaged milk should not at all be consumed because it has been tested and proved by scientists that it is not natural milk, but is made of harmful chemicals.

Cooking in the correct way is also very important. These days’ people use aluminum and non-stick utensils not knowing that they are cancerous. We should always use steel and iron utensils for cooking.
