What is a balanced diet? Well put simply, it’s having as much variety on your plate as possible. This does not mean get different kinds of greasy foods on your plate. It means watch what, how and when you eat. We were all taught the healthy food pyramid in Junior school. According to this pyramid, you must eat a variety of foods – all food groups must be included. Secondly, eat less meat and protein and more fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy foods. This is because all foods were not created equal.
