\"Set<\/p>\n

\n

Almost half of the population makes New Year’s Resolutions<\/h2>\n

The 4 top resolutions \u2013 according to Statistica \u2013 are:<\/p>\n

Save money (53%)
\nGet in shape (45%)
\nEat healthier (31%)
\nHave more sex (25%)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But less than 30% of people stick to their resolution for more than 30 days. And just 8% accomplish them!<\/p>\n

So here is a better way \u2013 a tried and tested method which will achieve at least 3 of those top 4<\/strong> resolutions.\u00a0 (It may even help you save money, too.)<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Set an explicit<\/u> and realistic<\/u> goal<\/strong>, not a resolution. Resolutions are mostly vague, goals are \u2013 or should be \u2013 specific and actionable.<\/li>\n
  2. Break the goal down into steps.<\/li>\n
  3. Check back weekly on your progress and adjust if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Set this one specific goal \u2013 for measurably better health in 2019<\/h3>\n

    The goal below is to follow a plan which combines advice from the best five sources I know of \u2013 sources that are based on solid, peer-reviewed, science.<\/p>\n

    They are:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Harvard Health Newsletter<\/li>\n
    2. University Health News<\/li>\n
    3. Medical News Today<\/li>\n
    4. Berkeley Wellness Newsletter<\/li>\n
    5. and of course, my own collaborator, Dr Paul Clayton \u2013 who is the former Chair of the Forum on Food and Health at the Royal Society of Medicine<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      I believe it\u2019s the best of the best health and nutrition advice.<\/p>\n

      Become a reducitarian, too<\/h4>\n

      The plan does even more. By following it, you automatically become a \u2018Reducitarian\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n

      A reducitarian is just a fancy title for someone who eats less meat and fish – and almost no<\/u> processed<\/em> meat. He or she eats more plant foods, like fruits, vegetables and pulses. It is the single most important change you can make for your health.<\/p>\n

      For health and environmental change<\/h4>\n

      It is also one of the more important contributions you can make, as an individual, to counteracting global warming\/heating.<\/p>\n

      Animal agriculture accounts for an average of 15% of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions, with beef releasing 4 times as much greenhouse gas as pork and 5 times as much as poultry.<\/p>\n

      Moreover, an astonishing 59% of ALL ice-free land worldwide is already used for animal farming. That\u2019s 26% for direct grazing and 33% for growing animal feed. Even medium term that use of land is unsustainable.<\/p>\n

      A simple eating plan to achieve your goal<\/h3>\n

      Achieving the goal\u00a0 means you eat more plant-based foods \u2013 without necessarily completely cutting out all meat. Although you obviously can. Therefore is doubly valuable for you and the environment. It is expressed as a one page simple eating plan<\/strong> \u2013 coupled with an effective 3-minute relaxation exercise. It\u2019s realistic and specific.<\/p>\n

      Stick the plan on your fridge door!<\/h3>\n

      Print out the plan \u2013 or call us on Freephone 0800 279 7740 \u2013 for a free copy. Here is the plan: https:\/\/nutrishield.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/CR-News-Food-table.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n

      Stick it on the fridge door so you can check if you hit the goal daily. New habits take on average 66 days to become ingrained \u2013 according to Psychology Today. So you need a daily reminder over a couple of months.<\/p>\n

      A disclosure about the recommended health supplement<\/h4>\n

      The food plan alone will put you firmly in the top 5% of quality, healthy diets \u2013 but it does include a suggestion that you boost your nutritional intake even further with a supplement called NutriShield \u2013 which we make.<\/p>\n

      That\u2019s because the level and range of nutrients you need to get the maximum protection from age-related illness and environmental hazard is higher than most people can realistically manage.<\/p>\n

      According to University College London and the American Cancer Society, the optimum healthy intake is 2-3 portions of oily fish a week and 10 portions of fruit and vegetables a day<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0 The Government\u2019s much more well-known 5-a-day<\/em> target is actually arbitrary \u2013 decided on when policy makers reasoned that a 10 a day target was so high that it risked people not even trying to up their fruit and veg intake at all.<\/p>\n

      NutriShield Premium <\/u><\/strong>contains 14 of the most effective plant nutrients as well as Omega 3, 24 essential vitamins and minerals and 3 more important nutrients \u2013 so it fills in the gap between the ideal and the realistic level of nutrition. [NutriShield Essentials contains 6 plant nutrients, Omega 3 and 24 essential vitamins and minerals.]<\/p>\n
