hello mylot friends,i think people have become more health conscious now a days.they eat healthy,excercise and even try hard to remain happy and avoid stress.people are craving for fitness.but i think the main requirement above all these is eating a perfect balanced diet.I have normal diet every day and i am happy with it.
but sometimes i worry that whatever i am eating is healthy or not and does it contain all nutrients.for this should i give some more stress on my food and diet so that i don't get diseased easily and stay fit? If yes what should a balanced diet be?

i agree.discipline is required in each and every matter.and then how can we avoid that in matters of health.discipline will lead to focus better on diet as well as excercise.thats a nice point friend.

It is hard to know what a good diet is. I know sugar, preservatives, and frozen dishes are to be eliminated for optimal health. I also heard that wheat and dairy products, although good for you, not in huge amounts. But as long as you keep stress at bay, exercise, and drink lots of water, that will will make up for any little things lacking in your diet!

it depends upon your age and what illnesses you have.if none,what are the usual illnesses in your family line?you can try searching for that particular illness and search for recommended diet

you are right dbhattji.it is because we prepare fresh foods and don't go for processes or canned foods that are very low in nutrition.and people here don't include non-veg foods most ofte in their diet.i think this makes us healthy.

A balanced diet should provide you with the esential nutrients that your system needs; protein, carbohydrates, fat, minerals, vitamins and water. They should be ingested

Balance diet should consist of foods rich in protein, carbohydrates, and all kinds of vitamins. No junk food and avoid synthetic vitamins. Becuase it pauses deseases. Go fof fresh foods as much as possible.
