6 tips to find your best version

January is now behind us, and although more and more of you have decided to lead a healthy lifestyle, I still know many of you who are still punishing your bodies with bad lifestyle habits. So, if you identify with this, I recommend reading the following tips, which will be very useful for taking better care of yourself this year.

1. Increase vegetable consumption

Try eating salads, creamed vegetables, and baked or grilled vegetables with every meal to increase your fiber intake and feel full. This will prevent you from overindulging in other, more caloric and nutritionally empty meals. If you're eating out, you can make a green smoothie with chia seeds. before going out to ensure a good supply of vitamins and minerals and prevent you from binge eating.

HelpTo help your body metabolize alcohol, increase the consumption of foods rich in B vitamins such as spirulina.

4. Get moving!

Get physical activity every day, whether it's a long walk, running, dancing, cycling, or whatever you fancy. Exercise boosts our metabolism and improves our cardiovascular and respiratory health, controls our blood sugar, and helps us optimize fat levels.

5. Don't "de-stress" by eating

Family events, company parties, dinners and lunches with a thousand friends, party nights, and other events can significantly disrupt our routine and rest. All of this can cause stress, leading to overeating and anxiety. Try doing a series of yoga stretches and meditating for 10 minutes a day to relax. And most importantly, get 8 hours of sleep.

6. One, two, three...detox

The day after a heavy dinner, reset your body by drinking a large glass of warm water with lemon and a tablespoon of spirulina on an empty stomach. This Helpwill cleanse your liver and eliminate toxins. If you have bloating and constipation, add chia seeds to your juices, smoothies and vegetable creams as they stimulate bowel movements.

Go for it!
