Alabama NewsCenter — Take charge of your health: Dr. Ann shares 5 quick and easy healthy resolutions

By: Dr. Ann Kulze

Ring in the New Year with a renewed commitment to take charge of your health. Here are my top five picks for healthy eating resolutions.

Go nuts. Include a small handful of nuts (about 1 ounce) in your diet each day. These delectable morsels of good health score a perfect 10 when it comes to protecting your health and your waistline. Those who include a prudent portion of nuts in their diet daily are leaner, get less heart disease, less Type 2 diabetes and live longer.

Eat a healthy breakfast each day. Folks who forgo this early-morning feeding get more heart disease, more Type 2 diabetes and weigh more (because they eat more calories over the course of the day.
