]]>When it comes to eating healthy, it’s not just the average person that struggles. Nutritional experts have admitted that they face a lot of the same challenges! They’ve shared some of the advice that they find the most difficult to follow to in their own lives.
Ilyse Schapiro is a nutritionist from New York, and she sympathizes with busy moms who struggle to think about the food they’re consuming.
“One area that I find hard to follow is mindful eating,” shared Schapiro. “As a working mom, I find myself eating on the go, while I’m standing up, in the car, on the phone, and in front of the computer screen.”
Being mindful of the food consumed helps a person to make better decisions when it comes to their diet while on the contrary, eating mindlessly can be dangerous.
“Mindless eating leaves one vulnerable to consuming extra calories and not feeling satisfied,” continued Schapiro. “It’s so important to be present and enjoy your food.”
Maria Pagano is a nutritional coach, and she can relate to a lot of people’s biggest challenge when it comes to eating. “I would have to say that getting enough vegetables would be my weakest link,” said Pagano candidly.
She says that vegetables are often the first thing to go when a person’s life gets busier. How many veggies does she recommend in a day?
“I like to shoot for 6 to 9 cups, but I usually fall around the 5-cup range when life gets busy—and unfortunately that can happen often.”
Research has clearly demonstrated that when people eat slower, they eat less. Not only do we consume less food and consequently, calories, we also feel happier, more satisfied, and calmer. Slower eating results in better digestion, so why do people eat so rapidly? A busy schedule is a common culprit, and John Berardi of Precision Nutrition falls prey to it from time-to-time.
“When I feel myself speeding up, I remind myself to pay attention—to put my fork down between bites, have a sip of water, and attend to the process of feeding and caring for my body,” advised Berardi.
What lesson is there to be had from all these comments? Don’t feel so bad – even the experts struggle with following nutritional advice all the time, but the important thing is to keep trying!
Learn from the best and try to implement some of these healthy eating habits in your life, and let us know what you struggle with personally!

]]>The post The Best Foods For Beautiful Skin As Revealed By Alicia Rountree appeared first on My Daily Magazine - Art, Design, DIY, Fashion and Beauty !.
]]>Professional model, Alicia Rountree, who doubles as a nutritionist, claims that eating the right foods is what gives her skin an edge.
Before getting into what Rountree eats to enhance her vibrant skin, let’s start off what she doesn’t eat.
She recommends staying as far away as possible from dairy, sugar, and processed foods like chips and cookies. Rountree also avoids bread as best she can.
“Ultimately, clear skin starts from within,” shared Rountree, and she believes these foods have the best chance of giving a person healthy, beautiful skin.

Rountree’s top food is beetroot, and she recommends drinking a glass of beet juice to empty the body of toxins and maintain the elasticity of the skin with all its vitamins and minerals.
Seeds and nuts make up a large part of her diet, and she especially likes chia and sunflower seeds for their rich amount of vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids.
Foods that are rich in beta-carotene play a big part in Rountree’s diet, and these would include carrots, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, etc.
“Eating just one carrot a day, or another beta-carotene–rich food, can improve skin color and reduce signs of aging,” said Rountree.
Time to start chowing down on those carrots!

Rounding out her favorite foods for healthy skin are avocados and probiotic foods like sauerkraut and yogurt, but it’s not just the right food that counts.
“Drinking water is one of the most important things you can do for your body,” commented Rountree, and she thinks it’s a huge factor in having great skin.
Rountree clearly knows what she’s talking about and practices what she preaches, so look like it’s time to mix up those beetroot and carrot smoothies!
