Cities have grown everywhere. We find crowd everywhere leading to the traffic. IT Hubs are increasing. Technology comes to aid everywhere and thereby man also runs for its aid. Making money has become more important. But for what does one earn money? Food, shelter and clothes are the most indispensable needs for our living. Is it not ones grave responsibility to maintain ones health to earn wealth in life. Thus it is important to follow a balanced diet routine to avoid all mishaps and health hazards in life.
What do you mean by balanced diet? Is a very frequent question that we would have noticed even in our science question papers? Balanced diet is a diet that provides all nutrition to the body in all means. Proteins, vitamins, carbohydrates, fat are some common nutrition that we need to obtain out of our food. It is always a common practice for people to have an extremely large amount of the above essentials in their food which is an absolute contradiction to balanced diet.
The true elixir of life is water. Water plays an important role in ones life and diet. It has to be taken in large amounts everyday. It helps in cleaning our stomach and intestines. It also helps to enhance ones complexion to a great extent.
Protein rich food like roti and dhal should be taken with a little rice to supplement for carbohydrates in our diet. Too much of protein also leads to unwanted problems such as dysentery. Green leafy vegetables like cabbage, ladies finger, spinach, helps us giving iron and minerals for the day. Boiled vegetables should be taken more than fried ones. Fried foods can only be taken occasionally. Deep frying can be avoided. Too much of ghee intake can also help in reducing HDL Cholesterol. Oily foods can be taken only occasionally. Fat rich foods containing cholesterol should completely be avoided from your diet to keep fit and to live healthily.
The above said diet can easily be followed in a day provided it is prepared with care. So we will have to take breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, dinner like a pauper to lead a healthy life.
