Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) ❓
Can I substitute salmon if I don't eat fish?
Yes: Try baked marinated tofu, tempeh, or legumes combined with chia or flax seeds to add ω-3 vegetables.
Does oatmeal make you fat?
Oatmeal alone isn't fattening; like everything else, it depends on the portion and the side dishes. Its fiber helps regulate appetite.
How much red fruit is right?
A reasonable portion is 100–150 g, alone or with yogurt. If you use smoothies, avoid adding sugar.
Does avocado have too much fat?
It has healthy fats; focus on the quantity. Half a serving a day is usually enough for most people.
How to cook broccoli without losing texture?
Brief steaming or cooking bleach more quick stir-fry. Al dente retains better color and crunch.
Common mistakes and how to avoid them 🚧
- Thinking that eating healthy is expensive: Organize your shopping, use quality frozen foods, and cook in batches.
- Abusing caloric dressings: Measure oil and sauces; one tablespoon is enough.
- Long cooking times that ruin vegetables: short times preserve nutrients and flavor.
- Low-protein breakfasts: add yogurt, egg or nuts for satiety.
- Forget the water: Hydration improves energy, digestion and skin.
