Researchers have found that it is beneficial to eat at least some protein three times per day. So, although you may be trying to stay fit or lose weight, doctors are now saying to put some peanut butter on that apple and some cheese on that cracker to stay healthy. Eat Healthy Fats, say researchers ’’Eating healthy fats such as a spoonful of peanut butter, chips and guacamole or toasted pita bread dipped in olive oil can keep you fit and healthy. Two servings per day is recommended.
Many people believe that it’s more healthy to drink skim milk than whole milk but new research shows that this is not necessarily the case. A recent study found that three servings of whole-fat dairy participants had lower risk of heart disease than those who had just one serving of lower dairy product.
Try to eat eight to ten small servings per day of colorful fruits and vegetables in order to stay healthy, say researchers. They provide fiber, vitamins and thousands of micro-nutrients called phytochemicals. As we age, our ability to extract nutrients decreases, which is why inflammation increases as we age.

A recent study of 2,735 people found that women who ate the least amount of fiber were 2.9x as likely to die from inflammatory heart disease as high fiber eaters. For every additional 10 grams of fiber that you eat per day, your risk of stroke increases by 12% noted the research.
A paper published in Nature Magazine showed that tiny spurts of exercise throughout the day are associated with significant reductions in disease risk. The researchers used data from fitness trackers collected by the UK company Biobank. They looked at the records of 25K people who did not regularly exercise, with an average age of 60 years old. They followed them over the course of almost seven years. Those who engaged in one or two-minute burst of exercise three times a day like speed-walking or rapidly climbing stairs showed a nearly 50% reduction in cardiovascular mortality risk and about a 40% reduction in the risk of dying from cancer as well as all causes of mortality. This shows that it’s not necessary to do vigorous workouts—every little bit of exercise helps.
