Healthier Food Alternatives
As we get older, we put more and more foods back on the shelfs after reading the nutrition facts. Some of us may be lucky and have metabolisms like Usain Bolt, but the rest of us watch what we eat more than TV. Over the years, being healthy has actually grown more popular; and therefore, food companies have taken advantage of this and added light and low fat to make you feel better. I hate to be the one to break it to you, but low fat means more preservatives and added sugars. Moreover, what I’m trying to say is, with so many different diets and foods, it's hard to know what’s healthy and what’s the opposite. Over the past year, I’ve cleaned up my eating; and with that, one of the big things that helped me was switching out my foods with healthier options. I am nowhere near an expert on nutrition facts, and these are just recommendations if you want to follow them. That is up to you. Later on I will do a sequel to this article about the healthiest places to eat when going out.

What’s the Deal With Cereal? Is Cereal Really Cancer Causing?
Tory Burch once wrote that “I like being straightforward. We can deal with anything as long as it’s on the table.” And I’d have to agree, yet (in my personal experiences) when it comes to food, things are swept under the rug left to be unseen.

Granola
Have you ever wondered what to have for breakfast? Tired of the old fare? We all know we should have something healthy. But we ask ourselves, what? Been having eggs and bacon too often, shouldn't have the sugary cereal, even if we want to. But we want something simple. I have struggled with this problem myself many times. Granola can be a good choice, but a lot of the time the ingredients are no better.

Foods That Are Healthy
The first thing I think most of us were taught as children was that vegetables and fruits are good for you. Even though that statement is true, that then leaves us wondering if all vegetables and fruits are good for your body, and which ones are the healthiest for us. Not all foods in these two categories are necessarily good for your body; and yes, some are more healthy than others, so let us dive into this vast area of knowledge and get into the real facts.

Whole Beans vs Ground Coffee
On a personal note, starting the day without a cup of freshly brewed coffee is next to impossible. Grinding coffee comes to me very naturally after all these years. But to be honest, time is not always a luxury for me in the morning. So when it’s not, I choose ground coffee.
