HOW BALANCED IS YOUR DIET



 We all eat as often as possible, but lots of people eat unhealthy meals, without bearing in mind that we are what we eat. 

Do you know that poor nutrition can cause lots of health challenges and also slow our ability to lead an active life, so we need to be selective if what we eat. 

For us to eat healthy meals, we should include all the nutrients the body needs from eating in order to maintain a healthy performance. These nutrients includes protein, fats, carbohydrates, sugar, vitamins and minerals.

When our meals are lacking the necessary nutrients, it slows our work capacity and increase our stress level and also cause some illnesses like 

Obesity

Tooth decay 

High blood pressure

Heart disease

Cancer 

Depression 

High Cholesterol e.t.c 

All these above can be avoided by eating right.
