Our mission, plain and simple,
The Healthy Diet Zone is committed to helping you improve your overall health,
lose weight, and remain fit and live longer.
MMM, sounds interesting doesn't it? Sounds good… and good for you.
Now how are we going to do that?
Step 1:
Step one is the most important step. So, we are going to concentrate on it. We won't worry about other steps just yet.
We're going to teach you how your food choices should fit with your body's energy needs, nutrient needs and personal
needs (meaning your enjoyment!).
This site isn't about eating a bland diet. In fact, erase the word "diet" from your vocabulary.
You'll learn how to enjoy food in a new way. You'll also start realizing how family, friends and your personal beliefs, even cultural and
environmental considerations, all play a major role in the foods you select and in your health and well being.
What Makes a Person Healthy?
Many factors… genetic, environmental, behavioral and cultural.. can affect your health.
It is important you realize these individual factors can influence your health and well being. Some important considerations include:
- Your family history, including your history of disease or risk factors.
- Your body weight, fat distribution, blood pressure all influence your energy needs and your well being.
- Your blood cholesterol, which affects the types of foods you should be eating.
By knowing all of this information, you can make more informed decisions about your health. You can start learning to
make good food choices. Making good choices about what foods to eat is one of the most effective ways to improve
your health and well being.
The Advantages Of Living In The Healthy Diet Zone
There are many advantages of living in the healthy diet zone. These advantages are for children and adults alike. They include:
- Healthy diets help children grow, develop and perform well in school.
- Living in the diet zone helps adults work productively, eliminate fatigue and feel their best day after day.
- The healthy diet zone encourages smart food choices, which can help reduce your risk of developing chronic
diseases including heart disease (the leading killer) certain cancers, diabetes, stroke, osteoporosis and more.
- A proper diet can help reduce major risk factors for chronic disease states including obesity, high blood
pressure and high blood cholesterol.
The Energy Nutrient Connection
Every person requires energy and essential nutrients to live well. These nutrients are essential because the body
cannot make these nutrients itself and must obtain them from food.
Essential nutrients include vitamins, minerals, certain amino acids and certain fatty acids. Foods also contain fiber
and other components that are important for health too. Each of these food components has a specific function
in the body and they are all required for overall health. For example, people need calcium for strong bones, but
many other nutrients also take part in building and maintaining bones.
