In natura x ultra-processed foods

Fresh or minimally processed foods, such as fruits and vegetables, are those found in nature. Ultra-processed foods, on the other hand, have many changes made to their original compositions, which can increase the risk of diseases.

Ultra-processed foods are rich in salt, sugar, fats, preservatives, flavorings and flavor enhancers. However, they are not so beneficial and healthy.

The presence of ultra-processed foods in a diet routine corroborates with a bad eating pattern.

The right food combination

For a balanced diet, it is essential to make the right combination of foods. This means that both an excess and a lack of nutrients must be avoided.

Furthermore, it is important to remember that a healthy diet should not consist only of fruits and vegetables, but should also respect the nutritional needs of the body.

Another important aspect of a healthy diet is proper hydration, respecting the amount of liquid needed for each age group.

To improve the Brazilian dietary pattern, it is necessary to invest in fresh or minimally processed foods, reducing the consumption of ultra-processed foods.

It is important to remember that a healthy diet does not have to be expensive, but affordable and bring benefits to the body, in addition to being pleasant and delicious.

In addition, it is essential to properly hydrate and make the right combination of foods.

It is important to remember that a healthy diet must respect the nutritional needs of the body and be of good quality. With these simple measures, it is possible to improve the health and quality of life of the Brazilian population.
