Many health and nutrition magazine always encourage its readers to practice healthy habits such as proper diet, exercise work outs, good sleep and avoiding vices such as smoking and drinking. Seems pretty easy to be able to do those things, but it is much harder to implement it. For one, work schedule interferes with keeping up with the weight loss and fitness plan.

Most people do not have the time nor the energy to engage in the physically stressful, if not psychological draining cardiovascular exercise and strength training routines. Another factor is the family dinner. Imagine cooking for a family of four. Its a multitasking nightmare - getting home from work, setting the table, preparing the dishes, preparing the food ingredients, babysitting the kids, looking after the cooking, watching the news. It does not end there. You also have to deal with a wrestling match with your kids if you want them to eat their vegetables. Some dont eat at all and you are left to eat food leftovers.

To create a healthy lifestyle, one conservative approach so as not to totally alter your work and home routine. It is all about taking baby steps. To paraphrase an adage, one small footstep is just the beginning towards a thousand-mile journey. One baby step to recommend is dealing your cooking oil. Now everybody knows how our everyday cooking oil contains a lot of fats, which is bad for our heart and our cholesterol levels. One way to reduce oil is to remove the skin off the meat, such as pork and chicken. Skin is delicious, but it also contains a lot of oil so when it is fried or steamed, a lot of it melts into the broth or sauce. Similarly, try to steer clear of fatty meat, such as pork chops. Another way to reduce cooking is to use good brands of cookware, especially the ones which does not require putting cooking oil in order to fry foods.

Using cooking oil also entails disposing it properly. Instead of pouring that bottle load of used oil down the drain, collect the used oil into gallon of container that is tightly sealed. Later when it is full, the oil can be deposited at the local solid waste management office. Cooking oil that is collected in Dutch oven cooking can also be saved and collected this way. Maybe a Dutch oven guide has also included ways on how to reduce and recycle cooking oil.About the Author:
