Diet is by far the most important way to get going with a healthy body and mind. My dermatology professor back in our training days took a four day class,not on dermatology,but on diet!
He started his class by saying the most important thing in your lifestyle is your diet. What you eat is what you are. He went on to tell us how he lost 20 kilos (44 pounds) of weight just by changing his diet. He highlighted the importance of eating fibers instead of drinking fruit juices. He emphasized not eating processed foods,also encouraged eating fresh vegetables and fruits.

Insulin resistance is by far the biggest enemy when it comes to maintaining a healthier lifestyle.A bad diet will have high amount of fructose,sucrose or other sugars in it. We refer to glucose as the main source of energy. However, it can become a significant risk factor for insulin resistance if not managed properly. Lack of exercise and lack of a healthy lifestyle can compound into this.
The ideal diet should include a moderate amount of carbs, moderate amount of proteins and low amounts of fat. Ketogenic diet is a unique alternative compared to a carbs-filled diet.
A healthy diet should be supplemented with good amount of exercise as well like strength training.Hitting the gym or lifting weights plays a huge role in preventing insulin resistance.Increased weight resistance exercises increases muscle growth and leads to healthier bone density and muscle mass.
