Being healthy and taking care of my body is my top priority, and I'm sure you can relate. I exercise regularly, wear my helmet when biking, say no to drugs, drink moderately, and always wear sunscreen. I'm also quite the health nut when it comes to my diet. Are you? Here are 10 signs you are unmistakably a bona fide health nut.

  2. You have three different types of flax products in your kitchen.
  3. When someone asks you to bring chips and dip to a party, you show up with kale chips and homemade hummus.
  4. You think serving a sandwich on white bread should be a punishable crime.
  5. Of course you've heard of quinoa, tempeh, and adzukis — who hasn't?
