 A healthy start
Eat plenty of fruit and vegies — at least two servings of fruit and five of veggies each day for adults.
Eat plenty of wholegrain cereals.
Eat LEAN meat, fish, poultry and/or alternatives such as legumes and nuts. They’re good sources of protein.
Limit saturated and trans fats. They definitely increase your risk of heart disease.
Include fat-reduced dairy foods and/or alternatives in your diet. As well as being a good source of protein, dairy foods are the richest source of calcium in the Australian diet.
Choose foods low in salt.
Don’t eat too much sugary food.
Drink plenty of water. |
