It is very easy to take our diet for granted. We know we need to eat to survive, but as we have a habit consisting of the typical routine of three meals a day, we do not pay much attention. We are aware that some foods are better for us than others and we understand that eating junk food can cause health problems, but because of casual approach we provide to the way we handle food, we do not really go down and think deeply about it. Unfortunately, it's a big mistake. If we take some time to really think about why we should or should not eat a particular food, we will appreciate the consequences, both good and bad, of the act. There is more to eat than just survival. Your daily diet goes beyond just helping you survive. When you eat the right foods, you will also feel better. You get more energy to cope with many of the difficult tasks during the day and you will feel less tired afterwards. Eating the right foods also improves the way you feel psychologically. Your food choices each day affect your health — today, tomorrow, and in future.
Good nutrition is an important part of leading a healthy lifestyle. Combined with physical activity, your diet can help you reach and maintain a healthy weight, reduce your risk of chronic diseases (like diabetes, heart disease and cancer), and promote your overall health
