Healthy Diet
Our bodies are nourished or damaged by what we eat. A healthy diet combined with an awareness of the quality of our food has the potential to hugely improve our health and well-being. In fact, studies show that up to 80% of premature heart disease and stroke can be prevented through life choices and habits, such as eating a healthy diet and being physically active.
Dieticians recommend that at any given meal, at least half of your food intake should consist of vegetables and fruit. They are packed with nutrients like antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and fibre, and they help you maintain a healthy weight by keeping you full longer.
