Preparation is key when it comes to healthy eating. And keeping it interesting helps too. There’s nothing worse than eating the same foods over and over. It’s hard to receive all the nutrients you need if you don’t change up your diet now and again. Another good reason to eat healthy is it helps with hormonal balance. When we fortify our body with nutritious food, our body functions at a higher level and we’re less likely to experience symptoms associated with PMS, peri-menopause and menopause.
