7 Tips for Healthy Eating at Home By Todd Mohr

I’ve devised my 7 Tips for Healthy Eating at Home because I feel like crap. What the heck is going on? I’m a healthy guy, I’m not overweight. I exercise more than most people. I was the Executive Chef at a large hospital, so I know about nutrition and I can cook.
Why do I feel lousy? Why am I exhausted by the television at 9:00 pm? Why do I sleep 8 full hours and wake up tired? Why do I feel like I need a nap in the afternoon? Why is my attention-span shortening? Why does my memory seem to be duller? Why am I irritable sometimes? Why is this happening to me?
I’m very “busy”. Whew! I have so much to do! Perhaps I can chalk this up to the all-encompassing “stress”. That’s it. It’s just that I’m busy and I’m stressed. Regretfully, I don’t think that’s ever going to change. The question is now, “what CAN I change to feel better”?
The answer keeps coming back to me – diet. I don’t use the word “diet” like a fad-diet best seller. I use the word diet like the controlled sustenance they give to zoo animals. Diet is what you normally eat every day, not what you eat for a few weeks. Since food is fuel, and I can control what I eat, I need to scrutinize my overall diet.
These 7 tips for healthy eating at home are either small or large changes you can join me in making in our lives. Again, I’m healthy, not overweight, and I exercise a lot. However, I’ve found these small changes can make a big difference in returning my energy, wellness, and mental acuity.
1) Grocery Store Choices – The items you toss in your grocery buggy are your weeks’ fuel. Do you choose high-octane or low-quality fuel? Many food writers and bloggers advise that you shop around the perimeter of the grocery store. That’s where the vegetables, meats, and seafood are. The interior aisles of the store contain the chips, canned, and processed foods.
The problem is that the perimeter of the grocery can be more expensive, calorie for calorie, than the interior. Our Food Scientists have designed it that way. One dollar in the fresh produce section will yield a bag of spinach for about 15 calories. However, a bag of potato chips will give you 150 calories for the same dollar. Is this more fuel for the money, or just cheaper fuel?
Choose whole foods, those with less than 5 ingredients on the label, preferably only one ingredient on the label. If you like to eat beef, buy “beef”, not processed Steak-umms or frozen dinners that add fillers and empty calories to weigh you and your energy level down.
You can’t control what goes into take-out and restaurant foods. Honestly, their main objective is to make their business profitable, not improve your health. They will provide delicious food, hitting on all the comfort points the human tongue can perceive. They’re not looking out for your health and energy level, only you can do that.
