Nutrition article

What is nutrition? Nutrition is the process of getting the right kind of food that is needed by the organism for a proper growth and development. While poverty is the cause for malnutrition in the developing countries, stress of work has led to neglecting the basic requirement for health in the developed countries.

Our daily hectic life does not allow us to take time and think of what we should eat. We live in a world dominated by schedules and every aspect of our existence is subordinated to that. This has serious impact on our health. In order to lead a healthy life you need to correct your eating habits.

Proper nutrition and health affects and defines the health of all people. It helps us grow, develop, work, play, and resist infections. Malnutrition makes people more vulnerable to disease and premature death.

A balance diet with a mixture of nutrients is essential for our bodies. Nutrients are the substance found in foods that provide nourishment for the body. Proper nutrition gives our body the necessary energy to carry out our daily activities without taxing our bodies mentally or physically. A balanced diet enables us to have a shapely body with the appropriate amount of body fat and muscle. Nutritional disorders occur when we don't ingest the correct amount of nutrients.
There are two groups of nutrients:

macro nutrients
micronutrients

Macronutrients include proteins, fats, some minerals, water and carbohydrates. These are needed on a daily basis in large quantities. Micronutrients are vitamins and some minerals. They are also required daily but in smaller doses. The FDA provides guidelines for a healthy diet and nutritional requirements. It is important to know that nutritional requirements vary based on age, weight, sex, height and physical activities.

One of the first steps to eating healthy is to choose foods that contain a low percentage of saturated fat. This will help the body to decrease the level of blood cholesterol. It is difficult to eliminate the intake of saturated fat at once, but it can be done gradually. Another action is to incorporate fruits and vegetables to your diet because they have a high fiber level.

Remove most breads, cereal, rice and pasta and replace them with fruits and vegetables. You should add cheese, milk, yogurt, meat, poultry, beans, eggs and nuts in small quantities. Fats, oils and sweets should be kept to a minimum. If you follow a healthy balanced diet, you can live a more productive and healthy life.
