You knew this would be first, right? Eating a well-balanced diet will ensure smooth operating systems in your body and the best foundation possible for a long and healthy life.
Most experts agree that a Mediterranean diet is hard to beat in this regard. That means lots of veggies and fruits, healthy fats, whole grains, limited lean protein (mostly fish and poultry), the occasional red wine, and limited sugar. Sure, the occasional ice cream sundae or extra cheese pizza won’t kill you. But do try to home in on the good stuff.
