The importance of a balanced diet for a healthy lifestyle

In addition to a balanced diet, regular physical activity is also important, with which we can manage many health problems and improve mental health by reducing stress, depression and pain. Regular exercise can help prevent metabolic syndrome, stroke, high blood pressure, arthritis and anxiety.

What is a balanced diet?

A balanced diet includes some special groups of healthy foods:

• Vegetables such as leafy greens, starchy vegetables, legumes such as beans and peas, red and orange vegetables and others such as eggplant.
• Fruits, which includes whole fruit, fresh or frozen, but not canned fruit dipped in syrup.
• Cereals, such as whole grains and refined grains. For example, quinoa, oats, brown rice, barley and buckwheat.
• Proteins, such as lean beef and pork, chicken, fish, beans, peas and legumes.
• Dairy Products, such as low-fat milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, and soy milk.

A balanced diet usually contains 50 to 60 percent carbohydrates, 12 to 20 percent protein, and 30 percent fat. All organs and tissues need proper nutrition to function effectively by consuming the right amount of nutrients and calories to maintain an ideal weight. The general health and well-being of a person thus depends on a good diet, physical exercise and a healthy body weight.
