Introduction to The Busy Bee Health blog

I: Introduction

This is a blog for busy bees.

It is a program to get even the busiest bee's health under control. The initial phase of this blog will take about six weeks.

Do you have little time? Is your health suffering because of it? You know when this is the case. You haven't been on a walk in weeks. You're eating junk.

Don't worry.

We'll get you up to scratch.

We'll explain briefly why you need to watch your food and exercise. Ain't nobody got time to read all those 500-page health and diet books. We do this for you.

Throughout this program we'll post five blog posts a week about these topics:

Health.
Nutrition.
Food.
Busy-Bee Recipes.
Mental Health. (Anxiety and Depression)
Exercise.

To save your time a lot of posts might also include all of these topics or more than one in a single post!

Extra Information! At the end of the project these blog posts will be turned into a book. This book will be on Amazon (as an e-book) for your convenience.

And after that? This blog will host a health challenge!

Let's get started with the most important ingredients to maintain or gain good health.


II:  Disclaimer

Why should you listen to anything I say?

I don't know. Maybe you shouldn't. I don't have a PhD, I didn't study health in university, and I don't publish and imporant papers.

BUT.

I am a person. A busy person. I run two blogs, write books, do some sales on the side, and most of all LEARN. Learn, learn, learn, from all sources available (books, courses, speeches) so that I can use my understanding of the health topic to give you valuable short posts that will explain why taking care of your body is so important.

This whole blog's idea is that I find the most important parts, the best sources of nutrition and health, so that you don't have to. Busy Bees don't have time to read 500 pages books on exercise. I do. It's part of my work for you, and it's also the reason why all the blog posts on this blog will be brief. They're supposed to be comprehensible and efficient. They're supposed to tell you clearly and without much effort to you why you should follow the steps I recommend.

Believe me, I've been there, done that, and you get the best information I've learned from my self-experiments.

All you have to do is follow the smell of the honey.

    Busy Bee Meal Prep Monday (04.02.2019)

    Image
    It's Tuesday this time! I'm sorry I couldn't post on Monday. Because we made so much food last week, we actually had enough until Monday lunch, which means we only made a new batch on Monday after the last of the food had been eaten. Without much further ado, here's the shopping for this week: The ingredients: Vegetables : a lot of paprika (mostly red with some yellow), orange sweet potatoes, one and a half zucchini (half from last week still), celery (also from last week's batch), brussel sprouts, broccoli, tomatoes, green beans, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, tomato puree (red box to the right), and two cans of tomato blocks (top right of picture). Proteins : fish (codfish as always!), eggs (used three), minced meat (1kg - but we only used 500g, the rest is frozen), chickpeas (glass jar with the purple lid). Carbohydrates (non-vegetable) : brown rice, spaghetti, a little bit of white rice What is not shown : a package of vegetarian (tofu)

    Busy Bee Health Essentials 1: The Importance of Nutrition

    The Importance of Nutrition 1. What are nutrients? (The basics in short): nutrients are the building blocks your body needs to function well. There are five important nutrient categories: protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins, minerals. A sixth might be considered as well. This is water (however: water = minerals). Why is nutrition so important? I believe we all know it but don't have the time or consciously take the time to consider what it means to eat healthily or take care of your body's nutritional requirement. I'll try to make it short. 1. The correct nutrition is important to keep your body healthy. Hint! Healthy might sound a bit vague considering how much information is available on the internet. So let's clarify what healthy means. Healthy = your body is working to the best of its ability. It's working at 100%. It's working the best it can and efficiently to help you achieve your goals. You don't hurt anywhere. You don't forge

    Busy Bee Meal Prep Sunday (20. January 2019)

    Image
    It's Monday! Let's get started with a quick overview of what yesterday's meal prep looked like! An explanation first: I have more time in the weekend (and more help) then during the week. This means Sunday it's meal prep day at my house. We usually start about 16:00 and are done by 18:00 - 18:30. This means two hours of cooking and we'll have food for the rest of the week. How easy and simple can it get! I'm going to show you part of my haul of groceries (unfortunately the rest didn't fit this time but I promise to make it fit the next!): As you can see there's a bit of minced meat (both chick and mixed pork/beef) and some fish (the brownish thing in the top middle). These are almost all the animal proteins we used. I also added plant protein in the form of red lentils (not shown on this picture) to one dish. The rest are all the vegetables (minus one hiding cauliflower that I couldn't find at the time). All that's missing here are
