Of course, there are many other nutritious foods other than those that we have included on our list that we feel are wonderful, health-promoting foods; if there are other whole foods - such as fruits, vegetables, nuts/seeds, whole grains, etc - that you like, by all means enjoy them.
Whole foods: fresh lean meats, fresh fish/shellfish, eggs. Processed foods to avoid: bacon, sausage, chicken fingers, fish sticks, hot dogs, deli meats, potted meats and spam. Dairy. Whole foods: low-fat milk (skim or 1%), plain yogurt, low-fat cheese and cottage cheese.Processed foods to avoid: ice cream bars, processed cheese such as Velveeta, sweetened yogurt/parfaits. Shop around the perimeter of the grocery store â thatâs where all the whole foods are! Avoid the aisles as that is where the processed foods are located. Make a grocery list that takes you around the outside of the store â fruits and vegetables, low-fat meat and low-fat dairy â and includes just 1-2 aisles per trip.
