    A habit is a behaviour that becomes second nature over time, usually by repeating it frequently. Like skills, therefore, habits can be formed at any time in life although they tend to be easiest to take on when young because the brain is more open to generating the neural pathways necessary to make behavioural patterns stick. Of course, habits can be good and bad. As such, healthy habits are all about making new patterns of behaviour that are good for both our mental well-being as well as our physical health. Scientists reckon that the average daily repetition it takes to form a habit – healthy or otherwise – is 66 days although some people will achieve this much sooner and, others, much later. Deciding to commit to a healthy habit in the first place is the key to being able to get into them.
    To put it simply, healthy eating is the practice of consuming only foods and drinks which have a noted health benefit and avoiding those with low nutritional value. A big part of a healthy eating regime is not to over-consume either. Even when it comes to healthy foods, overeating can lead to obesity which has long-term health implications. Many people undergo a healthier eating regime when they want to lose weight or to detoxify their body for a period. That said, for others, it is a lifestyle arrangement that they will stick to for many years. Although healthy eating programmes differ according to individual needs, they tend to mean drinking less or no alcohol, cutting down on sugar intake and the consumption of less fat, especially trans fats.
