Food and life

A: What shall we have for dinner?

B: what about having fish? I know a dish Green fish curry.

A: Great, but it sounds a little difficult to prepare..

C: yes, are you sure you can cook it yourself?

B: hehe, let me show you! Now we need some ingredients: Step 1 Spray a non-stick pan with oil and place over medium heat. Add curry paste and fry for 1 minute, until fragrant. Step 2 Add evaporated milk and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. When liquid has reduced, add beans, broccoli and fish. Stir to combine. Step 3 Add fish sauce and sugar, taste and adjust to suit. Add peas and lime zest. Cook until fish is cooked through, then remove from heat. Step 4 Add lime juice to taste. Serve immediately with rice.

C: It smells wonderful!

A: Yes, besides, it is also a health food

C: I have an idea, since we have a staple food, I will prepare a soup Mexican spiced tomato soup to match the green fish curry. You know I am really good at it.

A: great, I’ll help you.

--------------------------------Dishes already

A: We have very nice dinner tonight!

C: Yeah, a dinner with exotic flavor!

B：More than that, it is a healthy dinner with low fat low kilojoule and high calcium!

A: Yes, as to the healthy, I'm afraid that may tot enough! A lot of details in daily life should be taken into consideration. For example 1 Do some Exercise, and at the very least, just walk. You need to move to burn those calories, to keep your body “oiled” and revving, and your metabolism will be fine. You also don’t need to pay up to get moving. Even a brisk walk is considered quite healthy so if you can manage a regular exercise regimen comprised of sustained activity for 30 minutes a day, you’re in good shape. 2 Sleep earlier. your body heals and repairs itself and does its regulatory job while you’re snoozing. So give it the rest it deserves to keep you chugging along well the next day. A lifetime of bad sleeping habits will no doubt take a toll on you and this is one easy way to avoid getting sick. 3 Consider vitamin supplementation. vitamins and minerals — especially the important ones — are a necessity to help replenish your body’s stores. Certain vitamins and minerals are important to prevent certain diseases from occurring and if you’re not getting them from your diet, consider taking a boost from other nutritional sources. What about your opinions?

B：：Never skip breakfast.I used to be one of those breakfast skippers who would pile it on heavily in the evening. This is because I wasn’t hungry in the morning but terribly so at night. I thought it was just the way some of us were, that it was a natural cycle for some people. But in reality, these are bad habits that your body has become accustomed to doing and that needs to be broken. I look upon one of my friend as an example: he doesn’t have breakfast but eats non-stop till bedtime. Let’s just say this whacks out a body’s rhythm and does a number on glucose levels. Needless to say, the guy isn’t exactly in tip top shape nor healthy looking. But, I was surprised to learn how actually easy it is to retrain yourself into breaking those bad eating habits and found that my eating cycles are now better regulated resulting in less food consumed each day and overall improved health.

don’t let yourself go hungry.It’s weird but I also learned that if you can be proactive and anticipate

when you’ll be hungry, and actually eat something before you do, you’ll eat less, and better. If you eat right after you find yourself starving, you’ll end up devouring more than you need to. By the same token, if you eat slowly and chew your food well, you’ll be able to control your food consumption better.

C：And don’t forget to keep a good mood. Psychological health is as important as physical health. Along with the development of modern society, more and more people are plagued by mental diseases, such as depression, which have seriously influenced their work and study. Our mental health has a huge impact on every aspect of our lives, such as self-image, education, relationships, sleep, eating, physical health and so on. It strengthens and supports our ability to have healthy relationships, make good life choices, maintain physical health and well-being, handle the natural ups and downs of life and discover and grow toward our potential. When we are free of depression, anxiety, excessive stress and worry, addictions, and other psychological problems, we are more able to live our lives to the fullest

A: haha, I'm satiated with food and drink, what about going out for a walk?

B&C：OK
