,Healthy diet
The NHS Eatwell guide shows how much of each food group we should
eat for a balanced diet. This includes a healthy balance of fruit
and vegetables, protein (eg fish, meat, beans), carbohydrate (eg
rice, pasta, bread), dairy or dairy alternatives, healthy fats (eg
olive oil) and fluids (eg water)
(Green)Most of us still are not eating enough fruit and vegetables.
They should make up over a third of the food we eat each day. Aim to
eat at least 5 portions of a variety of fruit and veg each day.
(Yellow ) Choose higher fibre wholegrain varieties, such as
wholewheat pasta and brown rice, or simply leave skins on
potatoes.There are also higher fibre versions of white bread and
pasta.
( Bue) Milk, cheese, yoghurt and fromage frais are good sources of
protein and some vitamins, and they're also an important source of
calcium, which helps keep our bones healthy.
Try to go for lower-fat and lower-sugar products where possible,
like 1% fat milk, reduced-fat cheese or plain low-fat yoghurt.
, Foods are good sources of protein, vitamins and
minerals.
Beans, peas and lentils are good alternatives to
meat because they're lower in fat and higher in
fibre and protein, too.
What Causes Poor Nutrition?
Poor eating habits include over-eating, not having
enough of the healthy foods we need each day, or
consuming too many types of food and drink, which are
low in fibre or high in fat, salt and/or sugar.
These unhealthy eating habits can affect our nutrient
intake, including energy (or kilojoules) protein,
carbohydrates, essential fatty acids, vitamins and
minerals as well as fibre and fluid.
How Does Poor Nutrition Affect Us?
Poor nutrition can impair our daily health and
wellbeing and reduce our ability to lead an enjoyable
and active life.
In the short term, poor nutrition can contribute to
stress, tiredness and our capacity to work, and over
time, it can contribute to the risk of developing some
illnesses and other health problems such as:
● being overweight or obese
● tooth decay
● high blood pressure
● high cholesterol
● heart disease and stroke
● type-2 diabetes
● osteoporosis
● some cancers
