Many people think that having a healthy diet is to
stop eating, even what is really needed for our food often we leave a snack
lunch but much to compensate so no lunch or vice versa in reality it is not a
balanced diet.
The health and well happen, largely by following a
healthy and balanced diet. We must promote the consumption of fish, fruit,
vegetables, dairy products and olive oil. On the contrary, you should minimize
the intake of sweets and saturated fats.
The food pyramid or food guide pyramid is a graph
designed to simply indicate which foods are needed in the diet are, and how
much to consume, to achieve a healthy, balanced diet. This pyramid includes all
food groups, without trying to restrict anyone, simply indicates just how much
to eat from each of these groups to maintain good health.
Although the first food pyramids were created in the
early 1970s, possibly the best known is the one introduced by the United States
Department of Agriculture in 1992, revised and updated in 2005, as MyPyramid,
importance of exercise version, and which was, in turn, later replaced by My
Plate (My Plate) in 2011
In conclusion, the man needs food to live. The
nutrients in food will provide the energy needed to cope with daily activities
and operate your system.
To be healthy and maintain optimum performance every
day is necessary to follow a healthy and balanced diet. This is achieved by
combining food effectively to ingest the necessary nutrients according to age,
