What Are The Key Elements Of A Healthy Eating Diet

by Antonio Khatemi

The best healthy eating diets are those that include a
variety of key elements - protein, carbohydrates, fat,
fiber, vitamins and minerals. Some of the most important
vitamins and minerals include: salt, potassium, magnesium,
calcium, iron, copper, zinc chromium and selenium.

To know how much of each of these elements, and especially
vitamins and minerals, that you need each day depends
heavily on your individual preferences, height and weight.
But the bottom line is that the healthiest eaters use a
variety of vitamins and minerals, limit their intake of
processed foods and white sugar, and see many fruits and
vegetables on their plates each week. This kind of intake on
a regular basis offers the body the nutrients it so
desperately needs to keep it running in tip-top shape.

When you think about the healthy things to include in your
diet, you should also consider what NOT to include. Don't
make a habit of eating processed foods, white sugar or
things high in saturated fat. Instead, choose whole foods
and lots of fruits and vegetables. Become conscious of the
nutrients the foods you eat may or may not provide. Bodies
benefit from diets that are high in essential nutrients.
Here are some other tips for what to include in your healthy
diet:

Here is the simple diet that I prescribe to - My day usually
begins at 5:45 a.m. I start with two scoops of High Protein
Whey Rapid Absorption by Proto Whey and sixteen ounces of
water. Then I have a whole grain raw almond sandwich with
bananas.Green tea is always ready to drink too.

And here are some of the things I often include in my
healthy diet each day: - Two scoops of High Protein Whey
Rapid Absorption by Proto Whey and sixteen ounces of water.
- Whole grain raw almond sandwiches with bananas. - Green
tea. - Omelets made with six egg whites and one egg yoke and
full of vegetables. - Whole grain chapatti. - An all-veggie
drink of dark green veggies, organic apples, whey protein
and beets. - Nordic Naturals Pro-Omega (1000 mg). - Fruit
capsules. - Half a banana with two scoops of whey protein.
- Salads. - Proteins of my choice. For example, egg whites
make me feel great! - At least eight glasses of water.
- Glucosamine supplements - ZMA supplements - Vegetable
capsules.

At end of the night I take a glucosamine supplement, ZMA
supplement and one more pro-omega. I also take two vegetable
capsules. I sleep well through the night. I wake up fresh
and ready to take on the world. I typically do a minimum of
thirty minutes each day of cardio. Some days I replace this
with yoga, a four mile walk, or stretching exercises. The
point of all of this is to keep my body away from doctors
and to minimize deterioration. I want to encourage my body
to stay in good shape internally.
