Healthy Eating Habits Healthy eating is more than the foods you eat. It is also about where, when, why and how you eat. Canada’s Food Guide recommends the following: Be mindful of your eating habits: Set aside time to plan and prepare meals. Take time to eat and focus on your food rather than distractions. Notice when you are hungry and when you are full. Cook more often: Cooking more often can help you develop healthy eating habits. Preparing meals with others helps to nurture healthy eating habits that last a lifetime. There is no right or wrong way to plan meals. You can plan for the whole week ahead, or you can plan for a couple of days at a time. Do what works for you. Enjoy your food: Enjoying your food is part of healthy eating. Enjoy the taste of your food. Knowing that you are making healthy food choices can increase your enjoyment of food. Cultures and food traditions are a part of healthy eating. Eat meals with others: Enjoying healthy foods with family, friends, neighbours or co-workers is a great way to connect and add enjoyment to your life. It can provide many benefits and contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
