Why Diet?

🎯 It is possible to prevent up to 80% of premature heart disease and stroke diagnoses with lifestyle changes, such as increasing physical activity and healthful eating.

🎯 Limiting certain types of fats can also improve heart health. For instance, eliminating trans fats reduces the levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

🎯 Eating foods that contain antioxidants can reduce a person’s risk of developing cancer by protecting cells from damage.

🎯 Diets with a high glycaemic load may trigger increased symptoms of depression and fatigue. So lifestyle change and diet can help in better mood and good memory.

🎯 A diet rich in vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains provides a combination of prebiotics and probiotics that help good bacteria thrive in the colon.

🎯 Healthy diet also helps in weight loss and fat loss.

🎯 A healthful diet can help a person with diabetes in managing blood glucose levels.

🎯 A diet with adequate calcium and magnesium is important for strong bones and teeth. Keeping the bones healthy can minimize the risk of bone issues later in life, such as osteoporosis.

🎯 Children learn most health-related behaviours from the adults around them, and parents who model healthful eating and exercise habits tend to pass these on.
