How to establish a healthy and nutritious diet plan?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and understand your concern.

When we talk about a balanced diet or a healthy diet it means there should be a perfect blend of macro and micronutrients in a diet sourced from healthy foods. Yes, nutrition present in food helps the body get energy for body functions and maintain metabolism. All possible food has a combination of carbohydrates, fat, and proteins along with micronutrients like minerals and vitamins.

1. The body uses carbohydrates as a source of energy.

2. The body uses protein for cell recovery and muscle building.

3. Fat is used as storage to give energy in negative metabolism along with storage for fat-soluble vitamins.

Yes, as per your age weight height metabolic disorders, and dietary recommendations changes you need expert help for the same. It is a very vast topic to add in one answer but you can make healthy choices by following the below instructions:

1. Feast on colorful foods. Fill your plate with vibrant fruits and veggies- red, orange, yellow, and deep green.

2. Get plenty of grains and legumes. Whole grains like oatmeal, brown rice, whole-wheat pasta, chickpea pasta, and cereals are great high-fiber options. Black, red, and kidney beans are high in fiber and antioxidants.

3. Choose proteins and fats wisely. It would be best if you had a balance of lean protein (like skinless chicken), fatty fish like salmon (with omega-3 fats), and vegetable protein like two percent milk or fat-free milk or low-fat paneer or cheddar cheese.

4. Avoid trans and saturated fats, like fats found in butter, margarine, salad dressing, fried foods, snack foods, and sweets. Vegetable oils (like olive oil and peanut oil) are good fats.

5. If you using ready-to-cook or eat products, check the labels and add serving.

I hope you find this helpful. Thank you.
