DIETS CONSISTENT WITH GOOD HEALTH

• Diversity – a wide variety of foods eaten.


• Balance achieved between energy intake and energy needs.
• Based around: minimally processed whole grains; legumes; fruits and vegetables – particularly those that are field grown, “robust” (less
prone to spoilage) and less requiring of rapid and more energy- intensive transport modes.
• Meat, if eaten, in moderate quantities – and all animal parts consumed.
• Dairy products or alternatives (e.g. fortified milk substitutes and other foods rich in calcium and micronutrients) eaten in moderation.
• Unsalted seeds and nuts.
• Small quantities of fish and aquatic products sourced from good sources.
• Very limited consumption of foods high in fat, sugar or salt and low in micronutrients e.g. crisps, confectionery (हलवाई की दुकान), sugary
drinks.
• Oils and fats with a beneficial Omega 3:6 ratio such as olive oil.
• Tap water in preference to other beverages – particularly soft drinks.
