  • Little to no red meat
  • Low or reduced fat dairy products
  • No saturated fats
  • Plenty of fruit and vegetables
  • Adequate amounts of lean protein
  • Limited alcohol (no more than 14 units per week, spread throughout the week, with at least 2 consecutive alcohol free days)

Other healthy lifestyle habits to boost health:

  • Manage stress effectively
  • Quit smoking
  • Make exercise a priority
  • Have regular medical check-ups
  • Maintain a healthy weight
