Good nutrition plays an important role in your health and body development.

 

A healthy diet is one that helps maintain or improve overall health.

A healthy diet provides the body with essential nutrition: fluid, macronutrients, micronutrients, and adequate calories. Wikipedia

According to World Health Organisations, better nutrition is related to improve health at all ages and thus lowers the risk of disease and enhances longevity.

There’re many confusions when it comes to health and nutrition.

This article is intended to offer tips to our readers about how they can improve thier health and have a healthy diet.

 

Healthy Diets

Eat three times in a day (breakfast, lunch, and dinner);  Remember that your dinner isn’t going to be largest meal.

The key to a healthy diet is to eat the right quantity of calories for how active you so balance the energy you consume with the energy you use.

If you eat or drink more than your body needs you’ll put on weight because the energy you do not use is stored as fat.

If you eat and drink too little, you’ll lose weight.

You should also eat a wide range of foods to make sure you’re getting a balanced diet and your body is receiving all the nutrients it needs.

It’s recommended that men have around 2,500 calories a day (10,500 kilojoules). Women should have around 2,000 calories each day (8,400 kilojoules).

It’s also recommended that you eat at least 5 portions of a variety of fruit and veg every day.

They can be fresh, frozen, canned, dried or juiced.

Regularly consuming foods and drinks high in sugar increases your risk of obesity and tooth decay.

Sugary foods and drinks are often high in energy and if consumed too often can contribute to weight gain. They can also cause tooth decay especially if eaten between meals.

Free sugars are any sugars added to foods or drinks or found naturally in honey, syrups and unsweetened fruit juices and smoothies.

Eating too much salt can raise your blood pressure. People with high blood pressure are more likely to develop heart disease or have a stroke.

Even if you do not add salt to your food, you may still be eating too much.

About three-quarters of the salt you eat is already in the food when you buy it, such as breakfast cereals, soups, bread and sauces.

If your goal is to keep away problems like heart disease and strokes, you should follow below tips.
