A way that many of us cook in the summer is to grill our food. Grilling is an excellent choice to prepare meats as it gives everything a nice natural flavor, assuming you don’t burn it. Grilling your food is a great substitute for the ever-popular frying method. With frying you get tons of non-essential added fats from oils whereas with grilling the only need for oil is to lightly coat your grill so that the food doesn't stick to the grill surface.
Another easy way to eat lighter and healthier in the summer months is by eating fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are very easy to gain access to in many areas during the warmer season, and they are relatively cheap. Many people opt for fruits and vegetables during the summer season as they usually require little to no preparation since many can be enjoyed in their raw form.

Water is a key component for a healthy lifestyle all year round and summer is no exception. Drinking water during the warmer months is essential to keep from getting dehydrated. Water is necessary for our body’s survival, and it's cool and refreshing so go ahead and indulge!
Along with good foods to eat as well as better ways to prepare our foods during summer, other things contribute to a healthy summer eating style. A few major food items to avoid during summer and any time of the year would be foods with added sugar, and foods loaded with salt. All that sugar in soda and candy may give you energy at the time of ingestion but in a short matter of time, it has reverse effects. Sugar will make your body feel sluggish leading to a “sugar crash.” Overly salty foods such as potato chips should be avoided or eaten in moderation since the salt will cause your body to retain water which can make you feel bloated.

This summer, try to choose fresh foods and lean meats cooked in ways that don’t load on extra calories and fats. Avoid excess sugar and high salt content foods. Take advantage of fresh and local produce and stay hydrated for a healthy summer eating protocol.
