The Secret Of Good Eating Habits
Do you have good eating habits? The classic food pyramid says that you should get about six servings of grains, about three servings of fruit, three servings of vegetables, two servings of meat, and two servings from the dairy group. There is also a designated ‘other’ group that consists of junk food and beverages, like soda, that have little positive nutritional value. The food pyramid indicates that foods from this ‘other’ group should be used sparingly, and perhaps should not be part of your good diet plan. However, your intake of food from the ‘other’ group will depend largely on your metabolism and your health goals.
Good eating habits can be difficult to develop, especially if you have been eating whatever you wanted for a long time or if you do not enjoy cooking at home since many meals at restaurants are not the most healthy or balanced. Good eating habits do not mean that you can’t eat anything good, or that you can’t ever eat anything that isn’t technically good for you; it just means eating so that everything balances out in a healthy way.
