Good eating habits are necessary for you to be at your best. Avoiding these habits will keep you in better shape.
Skipping Meals:
It is the worst thing you can ever do to your body.

Your body needs it, and if you don’t eat it, your metabolism will suffer” Dr.Singh adds.
Weekend Splurges:
If you think maintaining a balanced diet on week days is good enough reason to stuff yourself with high-cal foods on weekends, it’s time to think again. Says Dr.singh: “those extra calories can add a few pounds a year to your weight.”
Fast Foods:
Everyone gorges on fast food once in a while. Says Dr.Atul mathur, senior consultant Escorts Heart Institute & Research Centre: “Such foods contain lots of chemicals & artificial substances. Therefore, they cannot provide your body with necessary nutrients elements it needs to stay healthy.”
Drinking water during meals:
Says Dr.Mathur: “For a good digestion, it is recommended that you drink water only between meals or at least half an hour before or after meals. If you drink water during the meals, it dilutes the gastric juices, and results in poor digestion”.
Ignoring the Labels:
Everybody needs a daily calorie budget. To make sure you don’t exceed yours, you need to start reading labels. Says Dr.Singh: “I recommend that you read labels to find out about calories per serving. Next, look for the amount of Soya, sodium & fibre they contains. “Yes, comparing product labels will take up some additional time, but it’s a lot smarter than just grabbing a packet with a familiar & famous brand name.
