Eating is like a Puzzle

A healthy eating style is like a puzzle with many parts.

Each part, or food, is different.
Some foods may have more fat, sugar or salt, while others may have more vitamins or fibre.

There is a place for all these foods.
What makes a diet good or bad is how foods fit together.
Balancing your choices is important.

Fit in a higher-fat food, like pepperoni pizza, at dinner by choosing lower-fat foods at other meals. And don't forget about moderation. If two pieces of pizza fill you up, don't eat a third.

Carbohydrates vs proteins

If you have been watching the new lately you will have seen that another fad has bit the dust, the High protein Diets has fallen into disrepute and the promoter is going bankrupt.
This Diet has done a lot of damage to a lot of people, health wise.
They had a great Marketing scheme going and a pile of people looking for the quick fix to weight problems got caught in the hype.

It seems that we have to go back to the old tried and true method.

Eat more grains, fruits, and vegetables.

These foods give you carbohydrates for energy, plus vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Besides, they taste good! Try breads such as whole-wheat, bagels, and PITA. Spaghetti and oatmeal are also in the grain group.

Join in physical activities at school or where ever you are.

Whether you take a physical education class or do other physical activities at school, such as intramural sports, structured activities are a sure way to feel good, look good and stay physically fit.
