A balanced diet is a healthy diet
To be able to function properly, our body needs all the nutrients that come from foods, that is proteins, carbohydrates (sugar) and fats, plus vitamins and minerals. To help maintain a healthy weight and have the best chance to stay in good health, balance is key.
The WHO (the World Health Organization) has given recommendations in 5 points that summarize the basis of nutrition:
Eat roughly the same amount of calories that your body uses. Healthy body weight = “calories in”- “calories out”.
Eat a lot of plant foods: vegetables, legumes, whole grains, fruits and nuts.
Limit your intake of fats, preferring the healthier unsaturated fats to saturated fats and trans fats.
Limit your intake of granulated sugar, ideally less than 10g/day.
Limit salt / sodium consumption from all sources
