Summary Of A Healthy Diet

In summary, the aim of this healthy diet is to maximise the amount of vegetables and fruit eaten - especially raw, for most people; and moderate the amounts of protein and starches eaten. In almost every case this will produce a healthy change. A vegetarian diet - without meat - would be fine.

Most of us eat too much protein and starch; and insufficient vegetables and fruits - the foods which contain most nutrients.A healthy diet contains many more vegetables and fruit - as much as possible raw.

Keep manufactured foods to a minimum for a healthy diet. It is quick and convenient to cook ready meals or even "meat, spuds (potatoes) and 2 veg"; However, these meals are not the most healthy. Keep them for occasional use only in your diet.

If we want to live long and live healthily, we will do best to maximise our intake of nutrient rich non-starchy vegetables (ie all vegetables except potatoes) and fruit. Certainly have a little potato - but do keep it to a minimum, and "max out" on piles of those lovely multi-coloured vegetables!

Your body will love you if you give it this type of healthy diet which is rich in nutrients, fibre and life-giving energy. Eat this type of diet and you are helping your body to keep you healthy. Your body cannot nourish and repair your cells and body organs without the necessary raw materials. Eat the type of diet described here and the raw materials will abound, enabling your body to keep you healthy and vibrant.

Good luck with your healthy diet!
