While going through this new unit of "food" one major thing that tends to pop is this so called healthy foods. "what is healthy foods, that's my question?" People in this entire world eat several things; some organic, fried, baked, grilled, just cooking or eating things differently. But whats healthy foods, is being on a diet, eating salads. When I searched this question, I came across this website that talked about "Make healthy Food choices". The thing that i found interesting about this site was it gave more choices kind of like allowing you to choose whats best for you to eat. I was assuming that it would just have things like what you should eat, in a way of forcing you to change your complete eating habits. This website gave suggestions of whats best for you to eat and tips on how to cut down things that are "bad" or unhealthy foods. This website focused more on a general healthy heart than someone looking for a diet to have a bathing suit body. Some suggestions were:
Know and limit your fats.
Choose lean meats and poultry without skin and prepare them without added saturated and trans fat.
Eat at least two servings of fish each week.
Select fat-free, 1 percent fat and low-fat dairy products.
Cut back on foods containing partially hydrogenated vegetable oils to reduce trans fat in your diet.
Cut back on foods high in dietary cholesterol.
Cut back on beverages and foods with added sugars.
Choose and prepare foods with little or no salt.
Cholesterol, fiber and oat bran.
Read labels for a healthy heart.
