Health Briefs on the Benefits of Eating Healthier Foods

People who enjoy healthier foods and meals benefit in ways that have nothing to do with weight loss. Health Briefs shares what the benefits are with readers.

Most people will eventually admit when they eat unhealthy foods such as those bought at fast food restaurants, that they do not feel all that great later. Over indulging at meal times is another way in which to feel unwell.

Healthy eating is not just about consuming nutritious foods. It is also about reducing portion size. Here are some of the super benefits people can gain when they eat more mindfully:

A New Zealand study found that a higher consumption of fruits and vegetables resulted in the participants’ reporting better moods, more energy and that they felt calmer. Another study found that the test subjects got more sleep and were more rested than those who did not consume five or more servings of produce per day. Skin looks healthier and is glowing when people eat more produce. The vitamins and minerals in them boosts cell growth too. Health Briefs TV knows that a healthy lifestyle also means healthier brains. A person who consumes beans, nuts, fish and produce as well as enjoying small servings of olive oil is more likely to have strong brain functions and be less prone to the smaller infarctions which lessen cognitive ability. Eating healthier is better for everyone and its benefits outweigh any objections anyone might think of.
