Trends or Fiziological balance?

Like fashion or technology, nutrition adapts to the changes of modern society; This change comes with benefits among us, as people have begun to look for information on how to eat properly, what categories of foods, how they should be combined, and so on.
But as in any field, the information is divided according to “trends” or versatile diets that sometimes go on balance, but most often on the principle of total elimination of certain food groups (low carb, vegan, etc).
In the initial phase, these diets come with good results, if we aim to lose weight, but in the long run any dietary imbalance can bring with it irreparable negative health consequences.
A healthy diet, regardless of the purpose or somatic type of each individual, should be based on the following principles:

1. Balance:
Between the ratio of macronutrients, 20% protein, 30% fat, 50% carbohydrates – they can be modified by 5-15% depending on the objective and the level of activity of each one.

2. Moderation.
Maybe not everyone has the opportunity or interest to count calories and macronutrients, but we all have the notion of eating in moderation to get the energy we need and also to avoid overeating or postmeal lethargy.

3. Food quality:
Depending on everyone’s income, we can choose healthy foods from a good source: fresh vegetables and fruits, lean meat, whole grains, oilseeds, dairy products, cheeses, etc.

4. Pleasure in food.
It is important to create a plate to your taste so that each meal is a pleasant experience and serves the needs of the body.

F17 offers a wide range of dietary supplements such as protein powders Iso HydroWhey , Total Protein bars and vitamins that you can slip into your routine, GN MultiVitamin or Vitamin C.

Choose carefully the sources of information in this very important topic, listen to the body’s signals, create healthy habits and avoid excesses of any kind.
