✅👍🏿A healthy diet is essential for good health and nutrition.
It protects you against many chronic noncommunicable diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Eating a variety of foods and consuming less salt, sugars and saturated and industrially-produced trans-fats, are essential for healthy diet.
A healthy diet comprises a combination of different foods. These include:
* Staples like cereals (wheat, barley, rye, maize or rice) or starchy tubers or roots (potato, yam, taro or cassava).
* Legumes (lentils and beans).
* Fruit and vegetables.
* Foods from animal sources (meat, fish, eggs and milk)
NOTE:
* Eat plenty of vegetables and fruit:
* They are important sources of vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre, plant protein and antioxidants.
* People with diets rich in vegetables and fruit have a significantly lower risk of obesity, heart disease, stroke, diabetes and certain types of cancer.
*
* Eat less fat:
* Fats and oils and concentrated sources of energy. Eating too much, particularly the wrong kinds of fat, like saturated and industrially-produced trans-fat, can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
* Using unsaturated vegetable oils (olive, soy, sunflower or corn oil) rather than animal fats or oils high in saturated fats (butter, ghee, lard, coconut and palm oil) will help consume healthier fats.
* To avoid unhealthy weight gain, consumption of total fat should not exceed 30% of a person's overall energy intake.
