Healthy eating
Most people in the UK eat and drink too many calories, too much fat, sugar and salt, and not enough fruit, vegetables, oily fish or fibre
Choosing healthier foods and eating them in the right amounts will help to:
- Reach and maintain a healthy weight
- Reduce your risk of serious health problems
- Maintain strong bones and muscles
- Improve resistance to infection
- Keep up energy levels and improve mood
