There are ways to eat smart and ways you should avoid eating. Obviously getting your daily dose of fruits and veggies is more productive than stuffing your face full of deep fried fast food "yum-yums." Eating right and exercise are not as complicated as you think. And, although the food pyramid seemingly keeps getting re-structured, the types of vitamins and minerals you should be getting does not change.
Vitamins can be either fat or water-soluble. The fat-soluble ones last in your system longer so you can get less of them daily, however, the water-soluble ones must be replenished often because they will not stay in your system. The nutrients we get from foods are based on the portions and the richness of the source. Some, obviously, are richer than others. The other thing is that we should eat the foods when they have the highest potential to provide nutrition.
Minerals Vitamins
Think about it this way, when you cook foods you are actually diminishing the amount of nutrients held in them. So, if you are to cook fruits or vegetables for any meal consider steaming, grilling, or baking. Ever have grilled banana with rice and fish? It's delicious and still fairly healthy. Speaking of, fish can also be steamed or poached. Chicken and other poultry, meat, and other protein heavy foods should be grilled rather than fried.
Lower the amount of tea and coffee you drink daily, the caffeine will actually decrease your vitamin and mineral absorption. That would be counter-productive to your system. However, one or two small cups a day is good for you because it will spike your metabolism and your energy to healthy levels for your heart.
There are other things to remember when choosing foods. Wholegrains and multigrains are better than white breads. Lean cuts of your favorite foods are better for sandwiches. Salads and other water-holding foods ease hunger and fill your stomach until the next mealtime. If you must snack, try nuts and seeds, granola, or fruit slices.
Your daily multivitamins and other supplements should help fill in the gaps. Buy supplements based on need. Target deficiencies you may have, such as low calcium or low iron, and work from there to create a balance. Too little or too much of one vitamin can actually throw your body off and then you'll have to change your eating habits just to make up for it.
If you keep this information in the back of your mind then you will be heading toward a healthy eating goal.
