Living Well With Good Eating Habits

Early mornings, hectic workdays and late bedtimes. Do you know this routine affects your eating habits and can result in negative health issues? To avoid the effects, proper nutrition is the way to go. Why not try these tips?

•	Macronutrients for Balanced Nutrition

	Macronutrients come from carbohydrates (rice, bread), protein (meat, beans), fat and water. You should eat in amounts according to the type of lifestyle you lead, ensuring balance in your food input and energy output. ¹


•	Micronutrients for Complete Nutrition.

	These nutrients can be found in multi-vitamins and minerals ¹. The combination of balanced and complete nutrition gives us energy; promotes growth, maintains cells and protects against diseases.

•	3 simple ways for optimum nutrition:



	Try to include different foods from each level of the Food Pyramid. More colours (fruits, vegetables) and textures from all the food groups give you a better range of nutrients.¹




	It’s best to eat just the right amount of food from all levels of the Pyramid daily for the nutrients you need to maintain health and bodily functions. ¹



	Be careful not to eat too much of any single food. If you’re not sure of portions, the ‘plate method’ is a useful tool. Fill ½ the plate with vegetables (mix and match your favourites), ¼ with any meat or soy-based products, ¼ with rice, bread or noodle. Complete your meal with fruits and water. ¹
