Introduction to Healthy Eating
Healthy eating means consuming balanced meals with essential nutrients like proteins, vitamins, and minerals.

Benefits of Whole Foods
- Whole foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains are rich in fiber, aiding digestion and satiety.
- Unprocessed foods retain more nutrients compared to refined or packaged alternatives.
- Studies show whole-food diets lower inflammation and improve long-term health outcomes.

Portion Control & Mindful Eating
- Eating slowly and savoring meals helps prevent overeating and improves digestion.
- Using smaller plates can trick the brain into feeling satisfied with less food.
- Mindful eating reduces stress-related cravings and promotes healthier food choices.

Hydration & Healthy Beverages
- Drinking enough water (about 2 liters daily) supports metabolism and detoxification.
- Sugary drinks contribute to weight gain; opt for water, herbal teas, or infused water instead.
- Alcohol should be consumed in moderation (1 drink/day for women, 2 for men) to avoid health risks.
