How much fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, eggs & healthy foods do you eat daily?

• A balanced diet generally consists of an adequate ratio of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins along with the recommended daily allowance of vitamins, minerals, and health-promoting substances.

• Nutrition is essential for the proper functioning of your body and is provided by a balanced diet.

• If your body is not well nourished, then you are more likely to suffer from diseases, infections, fatigue, and poor performance.

• It is important to eat a balanced diet to maintain good health.

• There should be a balance between fruits, vegetables, dairy, grains, and proteins in a balanced diet.

• It is important to eat foods from multiple food groups to obtain all the essential nutrients in the right amounts.

• Maintaining a healthy diet throughout life prevents malnutrition in all its forms, as well as a range of non-communicable diseases.

• Many people eat food high in fats, sugars, salts, and sodium, and they don't eat enough fruit, vegetables, and other dietary fibre such as whole grains.

• Diversity in food enhances not only health, but also nutrition.

• The consumption of an adequate diet should be based on the consumption of a variety of foods.

Fruits & Vegetables:

• Fruit and vegetables contain essential vitamins and minerals that help prevent disease as well as fibre that reduces cholesterol, keeps the bowels healthy, and aids digestion.
• They bulk up meals without adding too many calories. Because they are low in fat, they're a great way to bulk out meals and feel full without adding too many calories.
• Drink no more than 150 ml of fruit juice or smoothie every day because they contain too much sugar.

Fish:

• A fish is an aquatic vertebrate with gills, fins, scales along its body, and it is considered a cold-blooded animal.
• Fish is one of the best sources of protein, vitamins, and minerals.
• Fish is an excellent source of nutrients essential for health, such as protein, selenium, iodine, and zinc and it has more vitamin B12 and D necessary for brain health and bone health, respectively than any other food you can eat.
• Every week, consume at least two servings of fish, one of which should be oil fish like salmon.

Meat:

• Meat is a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals in your diet.
• The amino acids found in meat are essential to the human body and are regarded as a complete protein food.
• Eating too much meat can increase the risk of cancer, so limit it to three portions (350-500gm) cooked weight per a week.

Milk:

• Milk consumption is recommended by many nutritional guidelines for meeting daily requirements for calcium, animal proteins and vitamin B12 intake. 
• In the United-States, the national dietary guidelines recommend that adults should drink three cups or 732 mL/d of milk. [Reference By National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)].

Egg:

• Eggs are a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals.
• They’re a good choice as part of a healthy balanced diet and there’s no recommended limit on the number of eggs you can eat in a week.
• Eggs are great for making healthy, quick dishes.
• Try to avoid adding too much fat to eggs when cooking – poaching, scrambling, or boiling is best. 
• If you do fry eggs, don’t add too much oil to the pan and choose healthier unsaturated oils like vegetable, rapeseed, or olive oil. [Reference By Food Standards Scotland].
