Food Plan for better Health
Planning a Nutrition Strategy For Health Fortunately it is not necessary to be a nutritionist to form a nutrition strategy that works for you. A nutrition plan will work only if it is personalized. several strategies should be helpful in personalizing your nutrition plan. Assess Your Nutrition You should take an honest look at your eating choices and analyze your nutrition profile to determine whether you are doing the following: * Eating a variety of foods every day from the food guide pyramid * Avoiding high fat foods (more than the equivalent of 3 grams of fat per 100 calories) including sufficient fiber in the form of whole grains, dried beans, and fresh fruits and vegetables * Consuming six to eight servings of water (8 ounces each) * Limiting high sugar desserts or sweets to no more than three or four each week * Restricting the intake of high salt foods, such as processed meats * Consuming no more than one or two alcoholic drinks a day or letting drinking interfere with your appetite Make Small Adjustments The principle of changing health behavior is that the smaller the change, the longer it lasts. For example, rather than vowing to abstain from eating ice cream, you can make one small change at a time. You can reduce the amount or number of servings at first and substitute a low fat brand. If your diet is heavy in salt, you can gradually substitute sodium free seasonings. If you have a sweet tooth, you can try low sugar snacks. If you eat for fullness, you can prepare less food or leave food on your plate. You should plan an approach that builds on the cumulative effect of many small successes. You should think of balancing your diet over a long period rather than in just a day or a meal. You should try to meet the dietary guidelines over several days or a week. For example, every meal does not need to contain less than 30% fat. Portions of favorite foods high in fat should be kept small, and other sources of fat should be limited. In addition, you should check labels to get an idea of what nutrients you are consuming, but you do not need to keep a calculator by your plate. If you eat foods from the food guide pyramid, you will get all the vitamins, minerals, and protein you need.
