As shown by my results from the supertracker website, I am overall pretty healthy, but I lack some foods. Fruits are important for my body to attain vitamins. While I lack fruits, I also have an excess of carbohydrates and grains and which can lead to energy left unused. I need to balance out my diet more by trying to hit the daily amounts of each category. I can do this by altering my meals, and decreasing my grain and protein intake. Also as another way to balance what I am eating I could be exercising more to burn off the calories that I consume.
If I had the opportunity to teach someone about eating healthy and proper nutrition, I would first make meal plans with them to outline what their current diet looks like, and how we can work together and tweek it to hit all the food groups. Afterwards, the next step would be to see what foods we can remove and or replace with better options. The third step after eating healthy would be to get them to actively participate in a form of physical exercise.
