Like it is said, worry is a total waste of time. It doesn't change anything, all it does is steal our joy and keep us busy doing nothing. Please this month make sure no worries.

There is the general notion that healthy eating is expensive.
I tend to disagree.
First you need to consume small quantities of healthy fruit with a good mix of fruits , vegetables and nuts

For a busy person in the office a smart healthy diet is banana.
With 20 to 30 Bob you can buy 3 to 4 bananas.
Is that expensive? .

Banana is a complete meal because it contains

Vitamin B6 0.5mg
Potassium 450mg
Vitamin C 9mg
Dietary fiber 3g
Protein. 1g
Magnesium 34mg
Carbohydrates 4gm
Folate 25.0 MCG

High concentration of Potassium in banana is a safe guard against high blood pressure .

The good news is that banana is available all year round.

What about the high sugar content? is it a risk for example for those trying to avoid foods high in sugar due to various reasons eg cholestrol

BANANA AND CHOLESTEROL.

I think you got it wrong.

Banana and other plant based foods contains ZERO cholesterol.
Cholesterol is contained in animal based products and fried foods.
