DEVELOPING HEALTHY HABITS The first tip is to develop healthy habits. This is believed to be the most difficult step. However, it is a wrong assumption . Healthy habits may not be very difficult to follow if they are developed slowly. The knowledge of the importance of essential nutrients needed by the body also helps in developing such habits. Regular, small, and slow changes in one’s diet help in developing healthy habits easily. Breakfast should never be skipped.

MODERATE QUANTITIES The quantity of food nutrients is very

important in order to balance a diet. While following a healthy diet, people often go wrong with the nutrient quantity. Some people take in huge quantities of some nutrients and totally avoid others. The impor- tant thing to remember is that the quantity should be moderate. All nutrients are important for our body and should be included in moderate amounts to make the diet healthy.
