Healthy eating

A healthy diet – along with keeping yourself active – is the best way to shape up and stay in shape.
 
Food groups

Eating healthily – like a lot of things in life – is all about balance.

Which is good.
It means there are no good or bad foods and you don’t have to suddenly stop eating a lot of the things you like.

You can still enjoy most foods as long as you balance them with other things too.

There is energy and nutrients in all food – it’s just about making sure you get the right amount of those nutrients to stay fit and healthy.

There are five main food groups:

Fruits
Vegetables
Cereals and pulses
Dairy
Poultry, fish and meat products

A healthy balanced diet of these five groups will make sure you get enough essential vitamins, minerals and fibre to keep you healthy.

Also, the variety of food will make your diet far more interesting!
