5 Top Tips to Improve Your Nutrition

1️⃣ Keep Hydrated

Water is a forgotten food group and yet essential. Even mild dehydration can cause low energy, fatigue, poor concentration, headaches, dizziness, and muscle cramps. Adults should aim for 2–3 litres of water per day, and remember that water is also found in salad, vegetables, and fruit.

2️⃣ Include Protein Sources Daily

Protein is essential for growth, repair, immune support, and mental wellbeing. Include a variety of sources in your diet, including eggs, beans, lentils, fish (including oily), lean meats, dairy, wholegrains, nuts, and seeds. Plant-based proteins are just as valuable.

3️⃣ Choose the Right Type of Carbohydrates

Less refined carbohydrates digest more slowly and provide sustained energy. Whole grains are a great choice, offering complex carbs and fiber for better digestion and long-lasting energy.

4️⃣ Eat a Wide Range of Vegetables, Salads, and Fruit

Aim for at least 5 portions per day (1 portion = 80g). Eating a variety of vegetables and fruit ensures you get a broad range of vitamins and minerals, supporting overall health.

5️⃣ Limit Sugar, Salt, and Unhealthy Fats

You can reduce these by lowering your intake of processed foods. Always check ingredient panels and nutrition information on packaging to make healthier choices.
