Good nutrition involves several components which come together to foster proper growth and development
To a very large extent, your health is defined by what you eat; there’s no doubt about that. But eating well has different meanings to different people. For many of us, whenever we are told to eat well or to eat healthy, we find ourselves in a quandary because we’ve often heard eating well is eating less of fats and sugar while other times, we’ve heard eating well to be eating more of certain foods. Really, you shouldn’t be uncertain about what good nutrition is. As described by the World Health Organization, good nutrition is a composite of eating adequate, well-balanced diet and regular exercise (link to exercise article). But then what is an adequate, well-balanced diet? Let’s take a look at what this is all about.
For every food you eat, there may be some amount of carbohydrates, protein, fats, vitamins and minerals in that food. Your body requires a certain amount of each of these nutrients for proper function of your body’s systems and processes. Should you eat foods that supply less than what your body needs, you will be in deficiency of that nutrient. It is of great importance to eat foods that provide your body with adequate amounts of nutrients. This is quite a difficult thing to do sometimes as a lot of factors, such as sex, age, body weight, height and physical activity level, determine how much of a particular nutrient your body needs. Sex has an influence on how your nutrient needs because generally, men and women have different physiologies; their bodies work differently so men tend to have more muscle mass than women. So the amount of nutrients that would be adequate for a woman may not be adequate for a man. Studies have shown that as you grow older, your energy requirements decrease while your protein requirements may remain the same or in many cases may increase because more protein especially in old age contributes to better bone health.
