Is a healthy lifestyle just for the rich? Some people claim that they just don't have the money to spend on healthy foods. But the notion that healthy foods are more expensive than their unhealthy counterparts is a common myth. A grocery cart filled with fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads and cereals, legumes, and lean meat like chicken and fish is not as expensive as one filled with frozen dinners, cookies and chips. If you buy enough food items to make more meals at home, you will save even more. If you dine out occasionally, choosing a high fat meal won't affect your overall health. But if you frequent restaurants regularly or visit the company cafeteria daily, what you choose from the menu can have a considerable impact on your well being.
