Healthy Diet
Humans need a wide range of nutrients to lead a healthy and active life. For providing these nutrients, good nutrition or proper intake of food in relation to the body’s dietary needs is required. An adequate, well balanced diet combined with regular physical activity is a cornerstone of good health. Poor nutrition can lead to reduced immunity, increased susceptibility to disease, impaired physical and mental development, and reduced productivity.

Body building foods (Proteins)
Protective foods (Vitamins and minerals)
Being physically active and eating fewer calories will help you lose weight and keep weight off over time. Weight should be reduced gradually.
