Its a common saying “You are what you eat”. A healthy diet and nutrition throughout lifecourse helps to prevent malnutrition in all its forms as well as a range of noncommunicable diseases and conditions including such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer. However, increased production of processed foods, rapid urbanization and changing lifestyles have led to a shift in dietary patterns. People are now consuming more foods high in energy, fats, free sugars and salt/sodium causing an imbalance which is root cause of many ailments and many people do not eat enough fruit, vegetables and other dietary fibre such as whole grains.
The exact make-up of a diversified, balanced and healthy diet will vary depending on individual characteristics (e.g. age, gender, lifestyle and degree of physical activity), cultural context, locally available foods and dietary customs. However, the basic principles of what constitutes a healthy diet remain the same viz a diet that includes Fruit, vegetables, legumes (e.g. lentils and beans), nuts and whole grains (e.g. unprocessed maize, millet, oats, wheat and brown rice).
