5 Healthy Principles Your Diet NEEDS To Have 🍽
No matter what your culture, diet preference (vegetarian, vegan, etc), what restrictions you might have (lactose intolerant, no red meat), or bs fad diet you follow. Regardless if you are in it to improve your physique, athletic performance in competition or for optimal health. All HEALTHY diets will follow these 5 principles:
1) Adequacy ➡️ your diet needs to have ENOUGH energy, nutrients, vitamins/mineral, fiber etc to support your activity and health.
2) Moderation ➡️ needs to have an appropriate amount of food for maintaining proper weight and optimizing functions of the body
3) Balanced ➡️ the right combination of foods to provide proper balance of nutrients. In other words, one macronutrient shouldn't be overconsumed at the expense of another.
4) Variety ➡️ many different types of foods and variety of colors each day/week/month etc.
5) Nutrient Dense ➡️ more nutrients per calorie consumed. (ex. whole wheat vs refined bread)
