what is a healthy diet?

Healthy diet provides the body with essential nutrition. A good diet must include several food groups because one single group cannot provide everything a human needs for good health.

The crucial part of healthy eating is a balanced diet. A balanced diet - or a good diet - means consuming from all the different good groups in the right quantities. Nutritionists say there are five main food groups - whole grains, fruit and vegetables, protein, diary, and fat & sugar

Healthy diet


Healthy balanced diet is:

Eating the right amount of food for how active you are and eating a range of foods – this is what balanced means

The range of foods in your diet should include:

1. Plenty of fruit and vegetables
2. Plenty of bread, rice, potatoes, pasta and other starchy foods (choosing wholegrain varieties when possible)

3. Some milk and dairy foods (choosing lower-fat varieties when possible)
4. Some meat, fish, eggs, beans and other non-dairy sources of protein
5. Just a small amount of foods high in fat and sugar
6. The different types of food you need to eat
