What is a Balanced Diet?

Eating a balanced diet simply means eating a combination of foods which provide your body with the right amount of nutrition. An unbalanced diet means that your food intake is either deficient or excessive in one or more areas.

The reason a balanced diet is important is that it keeps you healthy, energetic and at a weight appropriate to your frame.

These are the basic guidelines when planning meals for your family:

1. The major part of your diet should be wholegrain and multigrain breads and cereals
2. You should eat a lot of vegetables and fruit
3. Eat some dairy products and some meat, chicken, fish, eggs or legumes
4. Eat only a very small amount of fat, oils, sugar and sweets.

The amount of calories in daily food should only be as much as your body needs. Exercising burns calories, which allows you to eat more food.
