Healthy Meal Ideas

Making healthy eating choices is not easy. Often, we eat the wrong food, in the wrong quantity, at the wrong time. One of the main issues food can cause is mucus and pus forming in the body. All meat and dairy products cause the body to produce mucus, and should be avoided.

Potatoes, breads, and rice also increase mucus production, but there are ways to enjoy these foods without the negative effects. Boil potatoes until soft, then put them into the oven for 30 minutes—this will dextrinize them and your body will be able to use them. Toast bread before eating. Use only whole-grain rice, rinsing it with cold water after cooking, and then hot water to warm it up again. Even with these helpful tips, it is still wise to always use moderation.
Here are some nutritious meal ideas to help you get on track to healthy eating.
