The Bottom Line of Good Nutrition

Posted by Lynda on September 7th, 2012 (Nutrition, Weight Loss)

The bottom line of good nutrition in ten simple steps from Sydney dietitian, Lynda Hamilton.

I am a firm believer that everyone is individual with different needs, but if pushed for my 10 bottom lines, here, in a nutshell is what you should be eating as part of a healthy, balanced diet packed with good nutrition.

The Bottom Line of Good Nutrition

1. Maintain a healthy body weight

2. Exercise regularly

3. Vegetable intake minimum 5 per day

4. Legumes (such as beans, lentiils and peas) at least twice per week

5. Oily fish 2-3 times per week (150g per serve) and/or daily fish oil supplement

6. Two vegetarian days per week – but eggs, dairy and even fish ok

7. Only eat meat twice a week

8. Nuts and seeds ( 30-50g) up to 5 times per week

9. Choose from a range of grains eg quinoa, buckwheat etc

10. Limit processed and refined foods including ham, bacon, salami, processed sausages; white bread, pasta and rice; pastries full of trans fats; ready meals and sauces.
