Healthy recipes using your favourite Camseng ingredients
How are those new year’s resolutions working for you?
Lockdowns and world events are bound to throw in a wrench in the best-laid plans (and get you to tear open yet another box of chocolates), but it’s never too late to get back on the bandwagon!
Healthy living resolutions are often on the top of people’s lists and here at Camseng we want you to enjoy healthier, happier you this new year.
Leading a healthier lifestyle doesn’t have to mean disowning sugar and loading your trolley with sticks of celery – start by making small changes!
Add exercise to your daily routine.
Whether it be a walk or some vigorous housework, get the blood pumping daily! Why not have a lovely lunchtime walk away from the (home) office – it will do wonders for your mental health as well as your heart health!
Give yourself a break.
Make sure you leave time for relaxation and a good night’s sleep too. Read a book, meditate, or cuddle up on the sofa for a movie.
A healthy eating plan.
Start by viewing food as nourishment and think about whether what you are putting in your body is nutritious or not. Keep an eye on those snacks too – could you swap it for some fruit or veggies? Adding more vegetables to your plate is a great way to cut the calories and gain vital nutrients while still ensuring you are full after a meal.
A healthy eating plan need not be tasteless either. Traditional Asian food is healthy, fulfilling and fights illnesses. Try these tasty and healthy recipes to a healthier you!
