10 Life-Changing Healthy Habits Better Than Any Diet (5 of 5)

Eat more unsaturated fats

Saturated fats, commonly found in animal products, can increase your risk of heart diseases and raise your cholesterol levels. On the other hand, unsaturated fats, which are found in foods like nuts, seeds, and fish, are beneficial to the body as they can lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease, leading to an overall path to better health.

Don’t multitask while eating

One of the most common habits that many people have is multitasking while eating, such as watching TV, working on the computer, or scrolling through their phone. However, doing other activities while eating can have an adverse effect on our health and well-being. When we are distracted while eating, we tend to eat more than we need to, which can lead to overeating and weight gain. Additionally, multitasking while eating can cause digestive problems, such as indigestion, bloating, and acid reflux. Moreover, when we do not pay attention to the food we are eating, we miss out on the sensory experience of eating, such as the aroma, taste, and texture of the food.
