Healthy Food

By Dr. Dale Heil

Healthy food to eat is available for most people. Unfortunately, too many folks choose to ignore good healthy food and consume the worst foods to eat at every meal and snack.

Healthy Diets For Teens

Good health foods that meet the daily nutritional needs of teenagers also meet children nutritional needs as well as those of adults. In other words, everyone needs raw vegetables, fresh fruit, and whole grains.

These essential foods must be included in any healthy diet plan you formulate or adopt.

Any healthy diet plan must include at least five servings of raw vegetables and fresh fruit per day. Realistically, you should eat much more of these healthy foods per day but that is the minimum.

Sources of protein such as beef, chicken, fish, or eggs should be consumed in small amounts. Envision a piece about the size of a deck of playing cards and that is approximately the correct amount you need per day of these foods.

Inexpensive Healthy Recipes

Many tasty recipes can be made from good cheap food. Healthful food choices do not have to be expensive.

When preparing a healthy diet menu you should include mostly unprocessed foods. This keeps the costs low while offering the greatest variety of nutrients as nature intended.

As you can see, healthy food to eat is all around us. Raw vegetables, fresh fruit, and whole grains are readily available in most developed countries. It is up to you to choose the best foods to eat to keep yourself and your family healthy.
