    A balanced diet is one that gives your body the nutrition it needs to function properly. In order to get truly balanced nutrition, you should obtain the majority of your daily calories from fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. A balanced diet is important because your body’s organs and tissues need proper nutrition to work effectively. Without good nutrition, your body is more prone to disease, infection, fatigue, and poor performance. Children with a poor diet run the risk of growth and developmental problems. Bad eating habits can continue for the rest of their lives.

    The human body requires various types of nutrients in order to keep the body healthy and fit. These nutrients should be taken appropriately in our diet. The diet that we follow should be balanced. Balanced diet is a diet, which provides all the nutrients needed by the body in correct proportions.

    This means that it should contain all the types of nutrients in the required quantities. Each meal should contain sources of carbohydrates (such as cereals), proteins (such as pulses), fats (such as cooking oil), vitamins and minerals (such as variety of vegetables). Some of the common foods and their composition are given below:

    In addition, the body also needs fibrous content called the roughage (for digestion) and water. A diet that contains all the above is called a balanced diet. ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS Our body need different compounds for the functioning of the different parts of our body. These compounds are called as nutrients. Different protein, vitamins and minerals should be included in our diet. Plant Proteins vs. Animal Proteins: Proteins are obtained from grains, pulses, fishes, egg, meat, etc. Plant proteins are incomplete food as they lack in one or more amino acids whereas animal protein have all the amino acids and are called as the complete food. A complete diet of various cereals, millets and pulses is required by vegetarians. Egg also contains a large amount of protein.

    Vitamin: Vitamin deficiency leads to different types of diseases. They can be obtained from plant and animal foods. Different types of vitamins available from different sources help our body in performing different functions. But the overdose of vitamins can cause illness. Minerals: A large amount of calcium is required for healthy bones. Milk and green leafy vegetables are a very good source of calcium. Iron is another important mineral required for making haemoglobin in the blood. There are other 17 different types of minerals necessary for the healthy functioning of our body.
