Less is more or
more is less?
In today’s fast-paced life, when access to a variety of foods is easier than ever before, it is worth paying attention to the quality, not just the quantity, of the foods consumed. This principle is crucial for maintaining a healthy diet and good physical condition.
It is better to eat smaller quantities but more valuable products than to reach for large quantities of food with low nutritional value. Choosing foods rich in nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, proteins, healthy fats and fiber, is key to maintaining nutritional balance and providing the body with the necessary substances to function properly.
Eating products with high nutritional value has a number of health benefits. Such products provide the body with essential ingredients, support the immune system, help maintain healthy skin, hair and nails, and support brain and cardiovascular functions.
Therefore, it is worth following the principle that what we eat affects not only our body weight, but also the overall condition of the body. Choosing fresh fruits, vegetables, whole-grain cereal products, lean meat, fish, nuts and seeds is an investment in health and well-being.
