HOW TO EAT FOR A HEALTHIER LIFE

There are so many diets and different super foods and fads out there now, and it becomes very confusing for everyone to know how and what to eat for a Healthier Life, and Wellness.

As a Fitness Instructor, and for our general healthy population, I recommend THE AUSTRALIAN DIETARY GUIDELINES and the AUSTRALIAN GUIDE TO HEALTHY EATING, which advices the amounts and types of foods that we need to eat, based on scientific evidence.  For people with medical conditions or require special diets or supplements I would refer to a Dietician for guidance.

AUSTRALIAN DIETARY GUIDELINES 1 – 5

Guideline 1   To achieve and maintain a healthy weight, be physically active and choose amounts of nutritious food and drinks to meet your energy needs

Guideline 2   Enjoy a wide variety of nutritious foods from these five groups every day

Guideline 3   Limit intake of foods containing saturated fat, added salt, added sugars and alcohol

Guideline 4 Encourage, support and promote breastfeeding

Guideline 5         Care for your food store prepare it safely
