18. Indulge
Don’t deprive yourself of anything uselessly. There is no such thing as ‘clean’ or ‘dirty’ foods when it comes to diet. Give yourself a break, make your fries a large order and enjoy that second helping of ice cream. And, most importantly, don’t feel guilty about it!
19. Avoid saturated fat for a day
Fat is good for you, and essential for the functioning of the body. However, when it it is saturated fat (the kind of fat found in animal products such as meat and dairy) or trans fat (imitation animal fat made with hydrogen atoms and vegetable oils that is added to food to give it a longer shelf life), it leads to increased cholesterol in the blood. You can find fats that maintain healthy cholesterol levels in vegetable oils such as olive, rapeseed and sunflower, and in natural foods such as avocados, fish, nuts and seeds.
20. Drink herbal tea instead of coffee
Although coffee has many health benefits, we’re all familiar with the jittery restlessness and irritability it can cause. Swap out your cup of joe with a herbal tea, such as green tea, which gives you a small caffeine boost and creates a gentler, more steady source of stimulation.
21. Try a new exercise
We’re 17 years into the 21st century, and exercise classes are getting more and more niche. From the better-known salsa and pole-dancing lessons to newfangled offerings doga (yoga with your dog), ravercise (an energetic rave without the drugs) and hula-hoop, there is no excuse not to find a type of exercise you enjoy.
22. Buy a herb plant
Buy a plant you can use in your cooking, such as basil, mint or parsley. It will nourish you and improve the quality of the air.
23. Avoid processed food
If it didn’t come out of the ground looking like that, give it a miss. Pre-made, pre-packaged foods contain lots of added sugars, salts and fats.
