<\/p>\nDo we really know what a ‘healthy diet’ means? A healthy diet is one that provides each person with the essential nutrients their body needs in a balanced way to meet their nutritional requirements.<\/p>\n
Humans require five essential nutrients, classified into 2 groups:<\/span><\/p>\n Macronutrients<\/span><\/p>\n (rice, pasta, cereals, potatoes, etc.)<\/span><\/p>\n (chicken, fish, meats, eggs, etc.)<\/span><\/p>\n (nuts like walnut, hazelnut, pecan, etc.)<\/span><\/p>\n Micronutrients<\/span><\/p>\n (broccoli, oranges, tuna, etc.)<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0(seeds, legumes, dairy products, etc.)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n For the preparation of a healthy diet, it is recommended to consult a nutritionist because a healthy diet must be adaptable to different stages of life, as nutritional needs vary depending on age, gender, level of physical activity, and lifestyle, among other factors.<\/span><\/p>\n However, if you do not have the budget to see one, here’s a quick guide on how to distribute your meals and an example of a healthy plate based on your weight in kilograms:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Example calculation:<\/span> If you weigh 75 kg and are moderately active, you may need between 90 and 165 grams of protein per day (75 kg * 1.2 g = 90 grams) or (75 kg * 2.2 g = 165 grams).<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Example calculation:<\/span> If you consume 2000 calories per day and aim for 50% carbohydrates, you should consume around 1000 calories from carbohydrates. Since carbohydrates provide approximately 4 calories per gram, that would be about 250 grams of carbohydrates (1000 kcal \/ 4 kcal per gram).<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Example Calculation:<\/span> Following the previous example of 200<\/span>0 daily calories, if 30% comes from fats, that would be approximately 67 grams of fat per day (2000 kcal * 0.30 \/ 9 kcal per gram).<\/p>\n Example of a Healthy Plate:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/li>\n <\/span><\/li>\n <\/span><\/li>\n Approximate Nutritional Value: Proteins: 37.5 g (from chicken) Carbohydrates: 45 g (from white rice) Fats: Approximately 15 g (from pecan nuts and olive oil in the salad)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Note that this is just one meal. For<\/span>\u00a0a balanced diet, nutritional needs should be distributed across multiple meals, ideally 3 to 4 meals, to ensure variety in foods and meet nutritional goals. Maintaining a healthy diet plays a crucial role in disease prevention, serving as one of our most powerful tools for this purpose. It helps reduce the risk of developing various short-term, medium-term, and long-term diseases associated with inadequate nutrition, such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and even certain types of cancer. Committing to a balanced diet represents the best investment in health that we can make for ourselves.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Do we really know what a ‘healthy diet’ means?
