Who is setting goals to get healthy in the upcoming year? Weight loss and eating better are two of the most popular New Year’s resolutions, most likely because people eat all sorts of sweets and treats during the holiday season. They want to hit the reset button on their health and get healthy. What does “getting healthy” actually mean, though? 

We believe that getting healthy applies to everything related to physical, mental, and emotional health. Improving your health can mean eating more balanced meals, getting therapy, establishing a better sleep schedule, etc. Having the right tools ahead of time can help better prepare you to take on the challenge when the New Year arrives. That’s where the tips in this article come in. If your resolution applies to any of the following ones, we hope the information is helpful to you. 

If Your Resolution Is To Start Moving

As busy as people are during the holidays, it’s very common to slow down during this time in regards to fitness. Since a lot of people have the resolution to start moving in the new year, they decide to let their workout regimen slide. You don’t have to be a pro athlete to benefit from exercise, though. Physical activity is beneficial for everyone, even 10 to 15 minutes of movement per day. You can start with a short walk on your lunch break, or a 20-minute yoga session when you get up in the morning. Cultivating patience and consistency will set you up for long-lasting success. 

If Your Resolution Is To Improve Mental Health

Committing to improve your mental health is a noble goal, one that can take a lot of work and determination. How you go about improving your mental health depends on your situation and if you currently deal with a mental health disorder. Mental health coaching may benefit one person, while therapy is the right path for someone else. A good therapist, however, can help you learn how to deal with stress, heal after the loss of a loved one, or manage symptoms of depression or anxiety. There are so many avenues to seek therapy, so don’t be afraid to explore them all, including the apps!

If Your Resolution Is To Prioritize Relationships

Looking to make more time for your partner in 2025? It could be as simple as talking to them more often. According to several studies, couples who spend more time talking to each other have a higher rate of relationship satisfaction. You can engage in a “listening night,” during which you each take about 10 to 15 minutes to talk while the other person listens. It can sometimes be difficult to find time to talk and listen, especially if you have kids. Sometimes, you need a little outside support in the form of a couples therapy section. There are many options, so don’t be afraid to explore what’s out there. 

If Your Resolution Is To Cook More

A lot of people cannot justify going to the grocery store, spending money on food, and then taking the time to cook. Given that there are so many meal service kits and food delivery apps, it’s common for people to order food a couple times per day. Cooking at home has been associated with better diet quality, though. The first step to cooking more is to delete your food delivery app(s). Additionally, do not accompany your desire to cook more at home with a highly restrictive diet. Your plan should be to build sustainable, long-lasting habits by emphasizing what you enjoy. Make it a point to include colorful fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, legumes, and whole grains in your diet to help nourish your body. Not only does this approach foster balance, but also consistency and satisfaction.

If Your Resolution Is To Grow Fresh Food

Gardening can have powerful effects on your mental health and overall mood. It can also provide a sense of purpose and is a relaxing hobby. Research shows that growing your own food can lead to an increase of nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables in your diet. The increased availability and emotional attachment to the plants, plus a sense of pride and accomplishment are just a few of the reasons for this. If the weather permits, we encourage you to garden outdoors, as being in the sun and can increase vitamin D absorption and improve overall well-being. Digging and raking can also restore dexterity and strength, while also providing aerobic benefits. Essentially, growing your own food is one of the coolest things you can do as a resolution. The success comes in the form of deliciousness!

If you are familiar with the content we post, then you know we laugh at the idea of a salad being a simple side dish. We direct the spotlight on the salad, allowing it to take center stage as the main course. You just need to pack it with plenty of cruciferous and colorful vegetables, heart-healthy nuts, savory beans, avocados, berries, and, most importantly, an incredible dressing. 

Make It Colorful

In order to make the perfect salad, you want to include as many nutrient-dense, filling ingredients as possible. If you can make it as colorful as possible, that is a bonus. The reason you want to include colorful foods, such as blueberries, purple cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, or bell peppers, is to diversify your antioxidant intake. This relates back to the concept of “eating the rainbow.” Eating this way not only ensures that you eat a wide range of fruits and vegetables, but also that you eat as many vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients as possible. Continue reading to learn about other tips to make a great post-holiday detox salad. 

Start With The Greens

Greens will form the base of your salad, but you don’t have to be traditional with your choice of leaves. Some people enjoy crispy romaine, while others prefer the diversity of spring mixed greens. Kale makes for an excellent salad base, so long as you remove the thick stems and chop it finely. Arugula is a great choice if you water a peppery base, and shredded Brussels sprouts or cabbage work well as bases for slaws. The point is that green vegetables are some of the healthiest foods on the planet! Some people abide by the phrase, “The more you eat green, the more you get lean.”

Don’t Be Afraid Of Onions

Onions, garlic, and other members of the allium family, exhibit unique flavor profiles. They have a strong bite, but a lot of health benefits come with that intensity. For example, onions exhibit impressive anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties because of their sulfide compounds. The same compounds that make your eyes tear up benefit your health! If you need to tame the intensity of onions, soak them in a little sea salt and lemon/lime juice. You can also crush up fresh garlic to incorporate into your salad dressing. Fun fact: crushing the garlic actually releases the health properties!

Bring Legumes To The Party

Legumes are naturally rich in fiber and protein, two things that help fill you up. When you add them to salads, they add a starchy creaminess that is very hard to replicate. In fact, you keep aiming for black beans, kidney beans, or garbanzo beans bite after bite! Most beans are naturally rich in soluble and insoluble fiber, in addition to resistant starch. Plus, several studies found that they exhibit anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory properties. 

Dress For Success

Before you dig into your big bowl of greens, colorful vegetables and fruits, onions, and legumes, you need a proper dressing. You can go with a simple vinaigrette using olive oil, your favorite vinegar, and sea salt and pepper, or you can blend several ingredients into a dressing. If you prefer creamy dressings, consider blending avocado, cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, and salt and pepper. Once your dressing is ready to go, drizzle it over your salad, toss to coat all the ingredients, and serve. When ready to eat, you can top with some almonds, walnuts, cashews, or other nuts and seeds of your choice.

Dieting during the holidays…is it possible? You bet your life! People have this notion that the holiday season is reserved for overeating and drinking excessive amounts at functions, parties, and work events. Plus, letting loose is often a great way to relieve the inevitable holidays stress or pressure from family and friends. That does not mean that you have to succumb to the temptation of endless holiday treats. 

Most people hold emotional attachments to holiday-specific dishes or treats. It is very common to associate these foods with meaningful memories during the holidays. The holidays are well underway, and there is no time like the present to take action. It will be difficult, but we believe that you have the strength to conquer the holidays while adhering to your diet! The following tips may help you dodge the pressure to overindulge. 

Plan Ahead

This rule truly applies to many things in life, but preparation is essential if you want to avoid failure. If you feel that your surroundings influence you easily, make your surroundings more comfortable. In fact, studies suggest that planning ahead and creating a plan can double your chance of success. If you plan to attend a holiday party, bring a healthy appetizer or dish, in addition to a healthy dessert option. When you know you have healthy food options, you will be less likely to overindulge on unhealthy items. If you are going to travel, make sure to plan ahead by bringing healthy snacks. 

Fill Up On Vegetables

Holiday spreads tend to showcase an assortment of carbs, proteins, and high-calorie desserts. Try your best to load up your holiday plate with as many vegetables and fruits as you can. Not only are they naturally rich in various nutrients, but they are also much lower in calories than other dishes. That doesn’t always apply, especially if you eat green bean casserole and candied yams. When we say “veggies,” we mean fruit salads, leafy greens, carrot sticks, and other sautéed root vegetables. 

Prioritize Your Favorites

There are seasonal treats that everyone looks forward to during the holidays. Maybe your vice is a slice of pumpkin pie or grandma’s homemade cinnamon rolls. There is nothing wrong with a small indulgence, but the trick is choosing the things you truly want to enjoy. If you say “yes” to everything, you are not doing yourself, or your diet efforts, any favors. Use this time of year as an opportunity to prioritize what you love and be strategic about it. That is especially true if you line up at the holiday buffet!

Track Your Calories And Macros

This sounds like an unpleasant chore, but you should keep track of your food intake because treats and alcohol are aplenty this time of year. It is very easy to go overboard with food, but paying attention to how much you consume is the best way to hold yourself accountable. When you input the information into your calorie counter, the results may surprise you. Small indulgences, such as a peppermint mocha latte, can affect your weekly average. Track your daily intake and use weekly averages to help determine whether you are sticking to your diet or not. Don’t punish yourself if you go a little overboard; rather, do your best to get back on the horse and meet your daily goals starting the following day. 

Remember Your “Why”

Weight loss motivation is more powerful than you realize. Remembering why you started your diet in the first place may be all it takes to keep holiday eating in check. If you have a support system, lean on them because they may help you remember why you started your weight loss journey. Remembering your “why” doesn’t mean that you have to eat perfectly. It will, however, remind you to either exercise or balance your indulgence with some healthier options. Change is very difficult, especially in regards to eating habits, and you have to work constantly to maintain your diet. Don’t give up on yourself just because you encounter some obstacles. You are strong and can make the necessary changes to maintain your diet this holiday season.

Who is ready to do away with the classic holiday side dishes? Before we offend anyone, you do not have to get rid of grandma’s recipes or anything like that. Instead, maybe you can include different sides at your holiday meals or parties this year. Too often do vegetables take a back seat at the holiday spread. If you see veggies on the table, they are most likely stripped of nutrients and prepared in an unhealthy way. This recipe departs from a dish of boring steamed carrots and pivots to change peoples’ minds about carrots. They will be an instant classic at your table!

It is very easy to roast vegetables that have a lot of flavor. The tricky part of roasting vegetables is cooking them evenly. The easiest way to get an even cook is to cut them uniformly. Thicker pieces will obviously take a lot longer to cook than thinner pieces. For this carrot recipe, you cook the carrots whole after peeling them. If the carrots you purchase are thick, feel free to cut them in even sticks to ensure an even roast. By the time the carrots are done, you want them to be fork-tender and caramelized, but not mushy. That is why the roasting time depends on the size of the carrots.

Now, tarragon is an underutilized herb in most households, but a lot of people don’t know how to use it. You only see fresh tarragon in teh spring and summer, but you can purchase dried tarragon any time of year. Tarragon has a subtle taste and is popular for flavoring, its medicinal properties, and for its fragrance. It pairs well with asparagus and carrots and goes great in soups and stocks. It is also rich in manganese, which is an essential nutrient that reduces oxidative stress in the body and plays several roles relating to metabolism, growth, and brain health.

Do you care about the food you put into your body? We hope you do! If you truly care about the effect food has on your physique and physical performance, then you most likely have your macros figured out. By macros, we are referring to the macronutrients: protein, carbohydrates, and fats. What about your micros (micronutrients), though? Vitamins and minerals are necessary for overall health and quality of life. They also work to optimize your energy levels and enhance exercise performance. 

Consuming micronutrient-rich fruits and vegetables can benefit the body in more ways than you think. The great thing about fall is that you can enjoy a variety of fruits and vegetables that contain a wide variety of micronutrients. In fact, diversifying your intake of micronutrients can help boost exercise performance. Start incorporating the following three fall produce items into your diet and feel the difference. 

Winter Squash

Yes, it is still fall and not winter yet. Don’t let the name fool you because winter squash come into season during early fall. These squash varieties are rich in potassium, fiber, magnesium, vitamin A, and vitamin C. The most interesting micronutrient, in terms of winter squash, is pectin. Pectin is a form of soluble fiber, which helps to regulate blood glucose levels, which are already in a healthy range. By regulating these levels, pectin may help you sustain energy for a lot longer. You’ll be able to squash any mid-workout fatigue if you include a little butternut in your diet. 

Pro tip: Save the seeds when you clean your squash out before you prepare it. Much like pumpkin, you can roast squash seeds, so long as they are large and plump. You don’t want to burn them during cooking, either! Rinse and dry them before roasting them in an oven with some olive oil and sea salt for about 15 minutes at 300 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Beets

Although beets are not the most attractive produce item, they pack a serious nutritional punch. Beets are naturally rich in potassium, fiber, folate, vitamin C, and nitrites, which help to lower blood pressure. Potassium is also a key electrolyte that is essential for muscle contractions and nerve signaling. Beets have a natural ability to enhance the delivery of oxygen and other nutrients to working muscles. That’s why it beats out others in terms of boosting exercise performance. The dietary nitrites have a positive impact on oxygen demand while you are engaging in physical activity. 

One study found that consuming 16 ounces of beetroot juice per day significantly decreased oxygen demand during moderate-intensity activity. Additionally, researchers noted that the participants who consumed beetroot juice experienced an overall reduction in oxygen cost. Chugging 16 ounces of beetroot juice per day is not for everyone, though. Through other studies, researchers determined that eight ounces of beetroot juice per day can elicit exercise benefits. 

Pumpkin

There is no individual nutrient in a pumpkin that will magically boost your exercise performance. That said, this glorious orange gourd is beneficial for your gains. Don’t skip on the impressive amount of fiber, B-vitamins, vitamin A, and selenium. After you scoop out your pumpkin seeds to roast, you can use the pumpkin meet in myriad ways. You can make homemade pumpkin puree, which you can use in many recipes, or roast the pumpkin or even turn it into pumpkin hummus. Pie pumpkins tend to be on the sweeter (and smaller) side, just in case you don’t want to grab a huge pumpkin.

Who loves pesto but either has a nut allergy or cannot properly digest different nuts, such as cashews, pine nuts, or almonds? Almost all pesto recipes call for nuts, so we decided to create a unique raw vegan pesto recipe that uses sunflower seeds. They have a mild, nutty flavor and add a smooth and creamy texture to this pesto. We also added two tablespoons of hemp seeds for an added boost of healthy fats and proteins.

Although you can use a blender, it is better to use a food processor when making this pesto. It also works best to process all of the ingredients, except for the basil, until smooth and then add the basil at the very end. That will help keep basil from bruising as much. You can also drizzle in a little more olive oil while blending if the pesto is too thick for your liking. Just keep in mind that this pesto, unlike store bought pestos, will only stay fresh in the fridge for a few days. That means that you will want to eat it soon after making it. You can also freeze it, so consider making a double or triple batch so that you can enjoy some later.

For easy storage, put the pesto in silicone ice trays, freeze, and then pop out the pesto cubes to put in a freezer-safe plastic bag. You can defrost the ice cubes 24 hours before you want to enjoy it. The sunflower seed pesto works great as a dip for raw vegetables, or you can use it with raw zucchini noodles to make a filling raw entree.

The fall and winter months invite colder temperatures, but you cannot enjoy a bowl of hot soup while cleansing. That is where this cold soup enters the equation. This isn’t your average bowl of gazpacho, though. This creamy raw vegan curry soup may only take five to 10 minutes to make, but it has the flavor of a soup that has been simmering for hours. It is quite filling and aromatic, making for a nice change from a standard salad or smoothie.

Besides having an addictively creamy texture and robust flavor, this raw soup is not green for a change. Made with freshly made carrot juice, tahini, homemade almond milk, tomato, lemon juice, avocado, and zucchini, this soup can be a light meal or side dish. What makes this soup creamy is the avocado, tahini, and homemade almond milk. Click here to make the almond milk, but consider omitting the dates, maple syrup, or vanilla extract that the recipe calls for. You don’t want those maple and vanilla flavors mixing with the other spices and ingredients in this soup.

Maintaining a healthy brain can improve your ability to retain and recall information, problem solve, focus, and connect with others on an emotional level. As you age, your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or other cognitive disorders increases. To help reduce the risk of developing these conditions, we outline integral supplements to support brain health in this article. 

Although the supplements in this article may support a healthy brain, they alone will not fight off cognitive disorders. That said, taking supplements may help to fill in any nutritional gaps in your diet and boost overall cognition. And while certain nutrients may play a role in cognitive function, there isn’t evidence supporting their efficacy for improving brain health. Read on to learn about supplements and nutrients that support brain health.

Choline

Choline helps the Brian make acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved with memory, cell signaling, cognition, and mood. One study monitored choline intake via diet and supplements and the cognitive function in people over the age of 60. Study authors noted that choline intake of 188-399 milligrams (mg) per day reduced the risk of low cognitive function by about 50%. The recommended daily intake (RDI) of choline in adults 550 mg for males and lactating persons, 450 mg for pregnant persons, and 425 mg for females. You can find choline in potatoes, shiitake mushrooms, broccoli, egg yolks, Brussels sprouts, kidney beans, quinoa, peanuts, and cruciferous vegetables. 

Ginkgo Biloba

This is a popular supplement in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). According to smaller studies, ginkgo leaf extract may improve brain function and memory in people with age-related cognitive decline. More extensive studies are necessary in order to arrive at the same conclusion. Research in healthy adults found that ginkgo biloba may improve attentiveness, recognition, information processing, and memory. Most of the studies confirming these findings have been small, so more studies are necessary to determine the full effects of ginkgo biloba on brain health. 

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

In addition to reducing inflammation and supporting heart health, omega-3 fatty acids may encourage better cognitive function. Fatty acids work to build cells and exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Various studies indicate that including omega-3 fatty acids in your diet or supplement routine may help boost brain health. In fact, diets high in omega-3s have been associated with a lower risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Although you can take an omega-3 supplement, you can consume fatty fish, soybeans, nuts, seeds, and other foods to get your daily fill of omega-3s.

Caffeine

This stimulant wakes you up and helps promote energy. Researchers note that consuming caffeinated beverages, such as coffee or black/green tea, helps improve alertness and cognitive capacity. Caffeine doesn’t affect mental performance or accuracy, and there are no long-term benefits for brain health. Ideally, keep your caffeine doses between 50 to 260 mg per day. Generally speaking, one cup of black coffee contains 95 to 200 mg of caffeine. 

Ashwagandha 

This popular adaptogenic herb may be beneficial for certain brain-related conditions, such as anxiety, stress, insomnia, alertness, and aging. One study observed people between the ages of 65 and 80 who took 600 mg of ashwagandha per day for 12 weeks. Researchers observed that the participants who took ashwagandha improved sleep quality, mental alertness, and overall wellbeing. More research is still necessary to understand the full brain-boosting benefits of this nutrient. Before taking ashwagandha, consider how this product may interact with medications or the central nervous system. 

Magnesium

This essential mineral is found in many foods and supplements. Magnesium plays many important roles in the body, one of which is assisting with the transmission of signals through nerves and the brain. Some evidence suggests that low magnesium levels increase the risk of cognitive impairment and neurological diseases. More research is necessary to determine if higher magnesium intake in people over age 60 can improve cognitive function. As of now, there is conflicting evidence on this matter. You can increase magnesium intake by taking supplements or eating leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and some other fruits and vegetables.

Theanine

Theanine is a natural amino acid commonly found in tea. It may help improve mental performance, especially when combined with caffeine. Green tea, for example, contains both caffeine and theanine, the winning one-two punch. A small study found that a one-time 100-mg dose of theanine improved attention. That said, participants who received a 200-mg dose of theanine daily for four weeks saw no improvements in memory, motor speed, or decision skills. For this reason, more research is still necessary on how theanine may improve cognitive skills.

Acid reflux can flare up after a large meal, especially if it is rich or highly acidic. You may also experience symptoms if you lie down too soon after you finish eating. The stomach acid rises into the esophagus, which causes heartburn and other symptoms. You may be able to manage acid reflux if you only experience it occasionally, but chronic acid reflux, also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), may require treatment. 

What Is Acid Reflux?

The contents of the stomach are only supposed to travel one way: down. Acid reflux is characterized by stomach acid traveling up back into the esophagus and throat. When acid creeps into places it does not belong, you will feel the results. Acid irritates the tissues and causes inflammation in the esophagus, which runs from the stomach up through your chest to the throat. 

Nearly everyone has experienced the occasional bout of acid reflux, which may feel like burning stomach pain or indigestion after eating. You may also experience a burning sensation in the sternum area, or heartburn. Occasional acid reflux is not a disease, but constant acid reflux can cause real damage.

Why Is Acid Reflux Worse At Night?

Many people experience acid reflux if they eat too late and do not wait before lying down to go to sleep. Gravity works against you, as lying flat makes it easier for the contents in the stomach to enter the esophagus. The size and contents of your meal also play a role in acid reflux development. Drinking alcohol, smoking, or other lifestyle factors, such as taking certain medications, can make heartburn worse. 

Chronic acid reflux can interfere with sleep quality, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine. Making small adjustments to your nighttime routine can help improve sleep and reduce heartburn or acid reflux symptoms at night. Continue reading to learn more.

Elevate Your Sleeping Position

If you have acid reflux, sleep experts recommend that you elevate your head four to six inches higher than your stomach. Extra pillows may not be sufficient, though, so you may require a special wedge support block or pillow. You can also use risers at the head of your bed to confirm that your head is elevated. 

Make Some Lifestyle Modifications

If you are overweight or obese, losing weight may help alleviate symptoms of acid reflux, such as heartburn. There are so many diets and weight loss programs available, so losing weight is very doable, so long as you can motivate yourself. You can also try our Full Body Cleanse to help improve your overall health. If you smoke, consider reducing your intake or quit entirely. Finally, choose pajamas or clothes that are not too tight when you go to bed, as putting extra pressure on the stomach may worsen acid reflux symptoms. 

Plan Dinnertime And Bedtime

Whatever you do, do not go to bed soon after finishing your dinner. Ideally, stay up for at least three to four hours after your last meal or snack. When you eat smaller meals throughout the day, you’ll be less inclined to eat a large meal for dinner. You can also make lunch your biggest meal of the day to reduce the size of your meal for dinner. 

Consider Medication

If you can avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, such as ibuprofen, naproxen, and aspirin, that would be ideal. Choose acetaminophen when you need an over-the-counter pain reliever. You can also experiment with antacids to provide quick acid reflux relief. If symptoms persist, talk with your healthcare professional to develop a plan of action. 

Check Your Diet

Last, but certainly not least, you have the easiest way to correct symptoms. Besides eating smaller portions more frequently, it is best to avoid foods that cause problems when eaten too close to bedtime. Limit drinks that contain caffeine and avoid alcohol, in addition to avoiding highly acidic fruits and vegetables. The more acidic your meal, the more likely you are to experience acid reflux symptoms.

Smoothies are truly the best. They are cooling, easy to make, and provide you with tons of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, protein, and more in one fell swoop. You have to change up your smoothie ingredients in order to diversify your nutrient intake. Incorporate colorful fruits and vegetables, as all of those vibrant colors offer unique antioxidants. This antioxidant-rich beet mango smoothie, for example, has many colors in the rainbow. If you’ve learned anything from us over the years, it’s that we support eating the rainbow, just not Skittles.

To make this smoothie, you begin with mango, which offers a sweet, creamy, tropical base. Add in frozen raspberries for a subtly tart flavor, more antioxidants, and fiber. Next, add chopped beet, but make sure to peel it because that will help reduce the earthy flavor. Beets provide unique antioxidants, which give them their signature dark red color. They also contain folate and nitrites, which the body converts to nitric oxide. In the body, nitric oxide helps to relax blood vessels, increase oxygen and nutrient delivery, and improve muscle efficiency.

The remaining ingredients are carrots and spinach, which we classify as the hidden vegetables in this smoothie. Carrots actually provide a pleasant sweetness and the spinach goes unnoticed, as it does not have a strong flavor. You’ll add fresh lime juice, ginger, and mint to really brighten up the flavor of the whole smoothie. Just blend it up until it reaches your desired consistency and then enjoy!
