Food provides the energy and nutrients you need to be healthy. Nutrients include proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water.
Healthy eating is not hard. The key is to:
- Eat a variety of foods, including vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain products
- Eat lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, and low-fat dairy products
- Drink lots of water
- Limit salt, sugar, alcohol, saturated fat, and trans fat in your diet
The end.. sure if you are wanting to compete in body building or you are training for a triathlon you would need to skew these things. But 90% of us just want to be healthy and fit. Food is the most powerful drug on the planet.
Use it.
