Balanced Diet A healthy diet is a balanced diet. It should contain foods from ALL the food groups. 2. Low in Saturated Fat and Low in Refined Sugar Although we need fat and carbohydrates, we don't need saturated fat or refined sugar. These are causing our diet and weight problems. 3. We Need Good Diet Nutrition GOOD CARBS Whether we are 10 pounds or 100 pounds overweight, we need a nutritious diet rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber. Good carbs, like vegetables, fruit, potatoes, whole wheat bread, pasta, rice, oats, beans, soy and whole grain cereals, provide good nutrition. Vegetables and fruit, in particular, contain a range of phytochemicals, enzymes and other micronutrients that are essential for efficient metabolism and a healthy diet. GOOD FATS (But in reduced amounts) These should come mainly from monounsaturated or polyunsaturated food sources, rather than animal fats. However, since fat contains more than twice the calories of other foods, it should be eaten in reduced quantities if you want to lose weight. When eating animal foods, choose lean lower fat foods.
