Being willing to adopt a new lifestyle, from eating cornflakes from a box or defrosting food in the microwave to cooking healthy meals, is quite a challenge.

Those who are willing to make a change have the opportunity to once again eat the delicious meals they love, prepared in creative, fast and convenient ways.

Adapting to a healthy lifestyle does not happen overnight and requires some skills, unless you are a chef yourself or have studied home economics.

Of course, it is impossible to adapt completely immediately.

The author himself gradually adapted to this lifestyle by reducing his sugar intake and increasing his natural fat intake through eggs, nuts, cream, cheese and other commonly eaten foods.

Thanks to the more butter and homemade sauce, the vegetables tasted more palatable and I ate more of them.

Try to avoid using frozen ingredients and use more fresh ingredients.

Frequent trips to farmers markets for fresh ingredients and sometimes the grocery store on the day fresh vegetables arrive.

For the author, the biggest difficulty is controlling the intake of sweets.

Ever since he was two years old, he has loved sweets and secretly added a lot of sugar to cereal bowls when adults weren't looking.

After a long battle with cravings, reduce your sugar intake.

Gradually reducing your sugar intake is more feasible and less uncomfortable than cutting out sweets all at once.

And, it feels better and better.

The author noticed a significant reduction in pain and inflammation in his knees on the first day he completely stopped eating sugar.

Many people have gone through the same process as the author in order to improve their diet.

They start putting butter on their bread, or simply increase their intake of natural fats they eat while reducing their intake of sweets such as sodas and juices.

It is a very effective way to increase the intake of natural fats such as butter and cream while eating less sweets.

Natural fats can make us less interested in sugar, and reducing sugar intake can make us prefer healthy foods, which is great for improving our energy and concentration.

Such obvious results can create a virtuous cycle like a snowball, giving us the energy to try more things and reinforcing the new healthy eating habits we have accumulated over time.

For those who don’t need to fight sweets, reducing their intake of artificial pro-inflammatory fats and avoiding excessive carbohydrates will be more beneficial to their health.

When the author was in Napa, she met a patient. She was an out-and-out gourmet, but she had been suffering from skin diseases for more than 30 years, and it had seriously affected her daily life.

At the author's suggestion, she stopped eating corn flakes for breakfast and switched to sourdough bread with liver puree; she stopped eating sandwiches for lunch and drank a bowl of homemade bone broth; she also used to make salad dressings.

The vegetable oil was replaced with olive oil and vinegar.

Later, she noticed a significant improvement in her stubborn chronic skin disease symptoms, which gave her the confidence to stick to her new eating habits.

As she persisted longer and longer, her symptoms improved more and more significantly.
