I try to get 7-8 hours of sleep, eat well and exercise regularly. Exercise + Nutrition = Health. Every morning, I walk with my dog for 15-20 minutes before work. I attend yoga classes 5 times a week and teach Fit-Twist Yoga classes. For breakfast, I have a quick recipe:
Mix a bit of Lifeway Strawberry Kefir with Trader Joe's plain low-fat yogurt, put some Quaker Low-Fat Natural Granola and a few slices of strawberries on top to make a healthy breakfast. That way, I get whole grain (good carbs), calcium, probiotic, protein, fiber and feel satisfied. I bring a Kashi bar for a snack and homemade salad for lunch. After I get home, I walk with my dog for another 15 minutes before dinner (around 6 pm). Then I enjoy a traditional Chinese diet of rice and dishes made with mostly vegetables. If I still feel like a snack an hour after dinner, I'll have some fruits. Occasionally, I treat myself to some organic dark chocolate or a small serving of Ciao Bella Gelato/ Sorbet.
Maintenance + Prevention = Health
These are the supplements that I take daily:
