We can't depend on pills and powders to get our life through, it's necessary for us to eat. Nowadays with hasty and fast rhythm of lifestyle, we are now having fast food and eating outside more frequent than ever.

With media, we learn that we should watch our mouth to avoid obese and disease. But not all food with labels, right? So it's time to learn some tips to pickup the right yummy food but not "tummy-making food".

Some tips that I can provide.

1. Go for White Meats rather Red Meats

For your information, the meat colour here are refer to the colour before they cook. Generally red meats are beef and pork even though pork are now sometimes consider as white meat. On the other hand, chicken and turkey are great examples of white meats. The reason why we should choose white meat over red meat are because that white meat have lower fat content and higher protein content. So stick with white rather than red. However, study do find that, if you can't have meals without the red meats, always ask for lean cut of the meat. They are just as good as the white do. For all sort of meats, ask for the lean cut for health. 

To top up, breast meat are less fat than thigh meats; skinless is better than those with skin; Turkey are good alternative for chicken, chicken is good alternative for pork and pork is alternative for beef. 

Meats are good source of protein, however they often come with amount of fat. Lean cut will somehow prevent the large amount of fat and the risk of cardiovascular diseases. The most ideal is still the idea with balanced nutrition with small amount of meats, large amount of veggies.

2. Seafood are great alternatives, but WATCHOUT!!!

Seafood are relatively lower fat and higher protein compare to meat, but they also often carry higher cholesterol that are bad for vessels and also some contain mercury that are hazardous to health. On top of that, raw or light-cooked seafood are often lack of favour, people tend to have them with tremendous amount of sauce and spices for example salsa, salad and salt which made them high-calorie food.

3. The way food are prepared are more important than everything!

Everyone know oily dried food are bad, other than that, pan-fried and grilled are also not that ideal. When go for western or fast food, try have those roasted meat or charbroiled meat. If you can go beyond than that, cooked or boiled food are the best and healthiest way of preparing food.  If you are someone unfortunately that only like heavy-flavored food and you just can't miss the sauces in your meals, ask for sauce separation from your dishes. At least you minimize what that are unnecessary to take in.

4. Coloured-food are always more hazardous than plain-coloured food.

Even the dark colour of grill chicken tell you that it's may lead you to cancer. Colouring and favours are often lead one restaurant or stall on top of the another. So when you are having your food outside, texture of the food may be so attract you but do keep on mind that these artificial materials may cause you to face some unnecessary calories and the worse, health hazards.

5. You may drink more calorie than you eat.

Eating a plate of chicken rice, a plate of tauge, a bowl of fish ball soup and you are full, hence you stop eating. But drinking may not be able to made you feel full that quick, when you realise you are full with drinks, you may already overdose with the Cals.
