In the spring, our body is ready for healthy changes in the field of nutrition and a spring diet that ensures well-being. This year's spring is therefore used to learn about spring dietary habits and food for optimal well-being. It's not as hard as it seems…
A healthy jump into spring means healthy eating habits and a diet full of food for optimal well-being. This is not as difficult as it seems at first, because with just a few simple dietary changes, we can bring a big spoonful of health and well-being into our lives.
Spring food habits:
- in the spring, our meals should be lighter
- there should be as much locally produced food on our plates as possible
- forget about coffee, sugar and alcohol
- spring is the time for healthy wild plants - dandelions, plantains, nettles and brambles
- in spring, nature wakes up - sprouts, buds and leafy parts of plants should also land on our plates
- fry and cook as little as possible, raw food is best suited in the spring
- eat as little meat as possible
- let's avoid bad fats (of animal origin) and don't forget the good ones (omega 3, omega 6 and omega 9)
- eat as little processed food as possible
- replace unhealthy snacks with healthy nuts
