A high-fat lunch could be followed by a low-fat dinner.
For good health, we need more than 40 different nutrients, and no single food can supply them all. It is not about a single meal, it is about a balanced food choice over time that will make a difference!
About half the calories in our diet should come from foods rich in carbohydrates, such as cereals, rice, pasta, potatoes, and bread. It is a good idea to include at least one of these at every meal.
Fats are important for good health and proper functioning of the body. However, too much of it can negatively affect our weight and cardiovascular health.
Fruits and vegetables are among the most important foods for giving us enough vitamins, minerals and fibre. We should try to eat at least 5 servings a day.
A high salt intake can result in high blood pressure, and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. When shopping, we could choose products with lower sodium content.
