I have been doing a lot of research on the food or food habits which can help us keeping healthy without making lot many changes in our food habits.
Milk
I was forced to drink milk in childhood. As I grew, it was free to choose, if I wanted to drink milk or not. Offcouse I choose NOT to drink milk. But let me tell you Milk is one of the best drink available (after dirty martini) which has everything which body needs. It is a perfect food. So one habit that should be adopted, is to drink Milk at end of the day before go to sleep.
Honey
Do you know Honey is more sweet then sugar? It is one of the best oxidant agent easily available. If you replace Sugar with Honey you can cut down lot of bad calories (fructose mainly). Honey has no fat, only high energy source of good sugar (glucose). Milk with honey can help you burn fat at night (being oxidant) also help you get some good sleep.
Stomach Holiday
Like other things stomach should also need an holiday once in a while so that we can also go and have some fun time :-). Kidding, well it might not go anywhere but still it needs rest once in while. Skipping dinner once in while gives time to stomach to recover itself. Trust me, you feel good next morning.
Eat Min 2 hours before Sleep
It takes body some time to digest the food and covert into energy. It is a good idea to give body sometime to digest the food before we go to sleep. So make sure to eat your dinner min 2 hours before you go to bad.
High Protean
Most of the time it is the carbohydrates which burns and produce energy, body is also capable of converting protean also into energy. Also protean is required to do all the repair works required in body. So it is always a good idea to eat lot of high protean contents foods like Eggs (Boiled), Soya, meat, fish
Grapes
Not sure about the name of the chemical but black grapes has this chemical which has anti-aging property. Consumption of black grapes are advisable time to time.
Wine / Brandi / Alcohol
Would advise people not to drink all the time, I am sure you are not going to listen. Drinking is good once in while. It kills around 75% of bad bacteria of body. But it should be taken as limited quantity and drinking is a bad habit.
Ghee / Butter
I used to think that butter is better then Ghee, then I did a google on this matter and result was quit otherwise. As per lot of comments Ghee is better then butter. The reason for that is butter has more unsaturated fat which are hard to digest where in Ghee has more of saturated fats which are relatively easy for body to digest. Also if you can go for Cow Ghee then Buffalo Ghee.
