​

7. Thou Shalt Stay Hydrated- Drink plenty of water and limit sugary or artificially sweetened beverages.

​

8. Thou Shalt Read Nutrition Labels- Be aware of what you're consuming — check for added sugars, sodium, and preservatives.

 

9. Thou Shalt Plan and Prepare Meals- Home-cooked meals are healthier and give you control over ingredients and portions.

 

10. Thou Shalt Practice Balance, Not Perfection- Allow room for treats or indulgences in moderation — sustainability is key.
