Easy And Healthy Recipes For Optimum Health

By Mary Harris


There are so many reasons for maintaining good health. Good health leads to a better quality of life and in many cases longer life as well. Maintaining good health is however a challenge in this modern age that is dominated by fast paced living. People who live and work in today's world transition swiftly from one setting to the next for social and professional purposes. When this happens it can be quite difficult to pay attention to how the body is being treated. Easy and healthy recipes have therefore become high priority for many people.

Nutritionists tend to agree with the assertion that meats and processed foods are generally bad for human health. Sadly though, many people consume fast foods, which often come loaded with these harmful ingredients. They often opt for these meals because they are easily accessible and the natural and nutritional alternatives are considered to be difficult and time consuming to prepare.

This is one reason vegetarian diets have become so popular among health nuts. A typical vegan recipe will include in its ingredients list items such as celery, carrots, almonds and cabbage. For vegans the items from the typical diet that they choose not to consume are replaced by vegan friendly alternatives. One example is cow's milk which is replaced by almond or rice milk.

Another type of recipe that is great for the very health conscious person is the vegan recipe. A vegan diet eliminates all foods from animals. This means that a vegan will not consume products such as cow's milk, cheese or fish. The vegan diet replaces the missing foods like cow's milk with healthier alternatives such as rice or almond milk

The problem with these types of meals is that many persons find them tedious and time consuming to prepare. Cooking methods such as broiling, baking and steaming are time consuming and the busy executive or working om may not have time for this. Additionally, some items require pre-preparation like peeling, dicing and marinating, also time consuming tasks.

Some of these nutritious recipes are focused on juices and this is a plus for ease of preparation. Ingredients that are beneficial to health are blended in some preparations. In others, their juices are extracted. Juicing is quick and easy when the ingredients are easy to prepare. Ingredients that would fit this description include cucumbers and starfruit, which only need to be washed and placed in the blender or juice extractor.

Some salads, such as tossed salad are quick and easy to make. For many of them washing and combining the items completes the process. For a tossed salad, for example, all that may be needed is washed bits of carrots cabbage and lettuce. This can be mixed with nuts such as almonds or other healthy additions like raisins.

It is worth noting though, that complete wellness is not achieved by diet alone. Other factors such as rest and physical exercise must be incorporated into any plan to safeguard or maintain good health. Any health enthusiast who wants to achieve optimum wellness ought to ensure that a balance between these three elements, rest diet and exercise is found.
