The Daily 5 with Maya Feller, MS, RD, CDN
1. Green Your Routine
You’ve heard it a million times and it can’t be said enough. Embrace all the shades of green and include an abundance of plant foods in your pattern of eating.
2. Spice It Up
Herbs and spices are often left out of the wellness conversation. In addition to imparting incredible flavor and quite literally giving life to your meals they are rich sources of antioxidant and phenolic compounds.
3. Eat Your Hydration
Drinking water is a staple when it comes to achieving adequate hydration, however, fruits and vegetables can contribute to your total hydration. Enjoying hydrating produce like mango, melons, berries, cucumbers and lettuices are a great way to add hydration and nutrients to your routine.
4. Show Your Culture Love When Eating
Our plates are often the intersection of our culture and history. Including foods that are representative of our ethnic and cultural identities makes it more likely that we are eating foods we enjoy.
5. Give Yourself Grace
As I often say, “life will do what life will do.” Sometimes we are incredibly hard on ourselves and need to remember to take time out for rest, restorative practices and to remind ourselves that we are in fact worth it and inherently good.
