What is your reason for wanting to get healthy? To lose weight? Be around longer for your family? Look better? Feel better?

Consider the following statistic from the Public Library of Science: by not smoking, getting some exercise, drinking alcohol in moderation, and eating 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day, you can add 14 years to your life!

Your health is one of life's greatest gifts, and if someone told you that by taking control of you health today you could have 14 extra years to spend with your loved ones, why wouldn't you want to learn about making healthy lifestyle changes?

You found this website for a reason. I developed The Healthy Eating Guide as a way to share everything I have learned about healthy eating, cooking light, healthy eating guidelines, and exercise. I decided to start getting serious about eating healthy and exercising a few years ago and have since transformed my body and mind and gained a wealth of knowledge and tips. I have done thousands of hours of research and read countless numbers of books, journals, and articles about all aspects of health and nutrition, tried all different types of diets and exercise, and now I want to help other people make a change for the better.

Did you know that over 1/3 of U.S. adults are now considered obese (over 72 million people)? 35% of adult women and 40% of adults aged 40-59 are obese! Childhood obesity and diabetes rates are also at an all-time high. Case in point: 30% of children aged 2-19 are considered overweight or obese and it has been estimated than 1 in 3 children born in the year 2000 will develop diabetes in their lifetime! These numbers are staggering ... and it's time to do something about it.
