Tips for Healthy Eating

Include foods that give you the biggest nutritional bang for your caloric buck. EB eggs are an example of a food that offers more for your calories. Compared to an ordinary egg, each Eggland's Best egg contains four times more vitamin D, double the omega-3 fatty acids, 10 times more Vitamin E and 25% less saturated fat - all for only 60 calories.

Eat foods in their most natural forms. The more you process a food, the more added sodium, solid fats, and sugar it tends to have. Processing also decreases the levels of potassium and other important nutrients.

Obey your hunger. Practice mindful eating. Enjoy meals and snacks with a minimum distraction. Turn off the TV, the computer, and your phone and concentrate on eating.

Snack smart. Snacks should be mini-meal, not meal-wreckers. Snack on perfectly-portioned nutrient-rich foods, such as a small carton of fat-free Greek yogurt or a hard-cooked Eggland's Best egg and fruit.

Get moving! Work in at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on most days of the week.
