What is a healthy diet?
It gives the body sufficient nutrients, such as protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats, especially without excess or deficiency. We do not mean depriving oneself of food and following a harsh diet. Still, rather it depends on eating nutritious food rich in the required nutrients and reducing consumption of unhealthy, harmful food.
Some benefits of following a healthy diet:
