If you want healthy and balanced food, pay attention to the kind of products you choose, the proportions between the different parts and the size of your meals. These tips will help you on your way.
TIP 1
Use the Nutritional Pyramid to discover which products help your body stay healthy. Prepare a varied diet based on:
moisture
fruits and vegetables
starch products such as bread, potatoes and pasta
dairy, meats, meats, egg and meat substitutes
fats such as , (liquid) margarine and oil
For example, for a varied breakfast, take 2 peoples' sandwiches spread, a glass of orange juice or a piece of fruit, a small dish of low-fat yogurt and a cup of tea.
Take the time to enjoy your meal.
TIP 2
A good habit: fill ¾ of your plate with vegetables, fruit and starchy products or potatoes. For a small piece of lean meat, a piece of fish, a vegetarian meat substitute or an egg, a maximum of ¼ of your plate will remain. To make your meal complete, add a product with calcium, such as some cheese in your meal, a glass of milk or a small dish of low-fat yogurt for dessert.
TIP 3
Ever skipped your breakfast and lunch so that you could enjoy a lot of extras afterwards? Although you may feel that you are saving calories in the morning, it can lead to overeating. So take the time to enjoy a healthy breakfast in the morning and a nutritious lunch a few hours later. In between you eat one or two healthy snacks and in the evening prepare a small hot meal, similar to the size of your lunch. So you have enough energy all day long and you have less need for sweets and snacking in between.
