Please tell me about a healthy diet plan. I don't want to lose or gain weight. Just need a healthy normal diet plan. Thanks.
I wouldn't recommend sticking to a particular diet plan, that can make things too complicated for you. Just a few recommendations: -olive and canola oil for cooking/baking -whole wheat products -oily fish at least once a week: salmon/mackerel/herring/sardine. I wouldn't eat salmon because the environmental impact is much, much higher than eating sardines -limit junk food as much as possible -vegetables and small amount of fruit (fruit isn't as important, pears have almost zero nutritional value for example) -legumes if your digestive tract is ok with them -small amount of nuts and seeds every day This can be done without any negative financial impact. And remember to take it easy, there's no point in becoming an absolute health nut.
I would say about the same. Just less canola oil & less wheat (and grains in general), more butter and meat/fish/eggs Experiment, and see what you find best for you.

we need to stay healthy, it’s important to eat a variety of foods to make a balanced diet. like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free or low-fat milk and milk products, nuts etc.
The "healthiness" of a diet will ultimately come down to caloric value. Use a bmi chart to see what a normal weight range is for someone your height, and then use the Harris-Benedict equation (or google "tdee calculator") to see how much energy per day will take you to/maintain you at a give weight. The wind blows in every direction when it comes to pop nutritional "science", so just be mindful of not becoming overweight and that'll mean your diet's fine.
I advocate the paleo diet which is basically real food with no grains, dairy or legumes. I try to make the bulk of my diet vegetables, which can be good if you know how to cook and flavor them. In addition I sometimes eat rice and corn. If I do anything else I am consciously breaking the rules and try to keep that to a minimum without being 'orthorexic' about it. Social occasions and suchlike are times I am less careful as it is maybe more important to just enjoy the occasion and not worry.
A healthy and normal diet plan gives your body the supplements (nutrients) it needs per day. A healthy diet plan additionally will lower the risk of heart diseases and other health issues. A good and healthy diet plan: Fruits vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products Add lean meats, fish, poultry, beans, eggs and nuts Avoid saturated fats, sodium and added sugars
My personal formula for being healthy is very simple, i.e eat less and stay healthy for long. I start my day with ginger green the which burn calories, body fat. and rest of my eating stuff are home made. I regularly do blood donation in every 90 days, (Donating blood not only helps others but also to our health. the chances of sugar, blood pressure, diabetes get reduces.) and 1 km daily walk or cycling. and 3/week swimming or outdoor activity like playing football or Zumba dance. all this activity make me fit and healthy. there is no such special diet to follow if we do little workout and eat good and healthy food.
Fresh meals and regular exercise keep the body healthy and fit. Less oily, fatty food is good for health.
I would like to eat healthier too. Recently, I began to notice digestive problems and it seems to me that it's time to change something in my diet. I recently bought /best-juicer-for-greens/ . What do you think is useful to drink only juices a couple of days?
