Here's what nutritionists say about following a balanced diet

A balanced diet is not about restricting yourself from a variety of food products but it emphasises nutrient-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats.

It only limits processed foods and extra sugars, strengthens immunity, supports hydration, and promotes overall health.

Backed by science, this innovative approach assists in maintaining energy, managing weight and preventing chronic diseases such as cardiac disorders, diabetes, obesity, and more.
