What Is a Balanced Diet?
A balanced diet is about variety, not perfection — eat colourful, nourishing foods and include flexibility.
A balanced diet includes a variety of foods that give your body the nutrients it needs to function well. It’s not about restriction — it’s about nourishment and flexibility.
Key elements of a balanced diet:
- Plenty of fruit and vegetables of different colours
- Whole grains like oats, brown rice, and wholemeal bread
- Lean proteins such as legumes, eggs, fish, or chicken
- Healthy fats from nuts, seeds, olive oil, and avocado
- Limited added sugar and highly processed foods
Healthy eating doesn’t have to be perfect. Allow room for treats and focus on long-term habits that support how you feel.
