Diet On A Dime
Parents World|Issue 69

You dont have to blow your budget trying to eat healthy with these practical pro-tips on cheap, clean eating.

Diet On A Dime

let’s get back to the basics. What exactly does healthy eating mean anymore? It used to be represented with a clear-cut pyramid, including two servings of fruits and vegetables each at every meal. Those guidelines are no longer easy to follow in an era where everything from eggs to bread get demonised while superfoods reign supreme. According to HealthHub, a healthy diet is one that is high in dietary fibre and low in fat, cholesterol, sugar, and salt. It also says that to eat healthy, you’ll need to eat a wide variety of foods in the right proportions without overconsuming any type of food. In short, it means having balanced meals.

We’re sure the term “balanced diet” sounds familiar, but many of us tend to forget that this directive doesn’t mention organic food, superfoods or trendy salad bars – all of which can send your daily expenses skyrocketing. So if the cost of healthy eating is why you sweep it under the rug, be assured that you don’t need deep pockets to enjoy the luxury of a healthy diet.

Bang For Your Buck

Meal planning and grocery shopping on a budget has its challenges. A dedication to eating healthier makes it even trickier. An inexpensive way to pick up healthy eating is to add more whole grains to your diet. Whole grains are a great source of fibre and can lower your risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. The best part is that they are inexpensive and have a long shelf life.
