Balanced Nutrition

Balanced nutrition concept

The concept of balanced nutrition generally depends on two important points:

* The food is all-encompassing for all the nutrients needed for the body.

* The food is sufficient in quantity to satisfy the body and its requirements.

Balanced nutrition depends on quantity and quality. Food is not enough if it does not contain all the useful ingredients, and if it is a small quantity, even if it is comprehensive.

Balanced nutrition also changes and is influenced by several factors, including:

* Age of the human: the needs of the body of the child is different from the needs of the body of the young, as well as the elderly

* Muscular effort: athletes' bodies need balanced nutrition that is completely different from that needed by staff and employees behind offices and in office facilities!

* Gender: The balanced nutrition needs of men differ from those needed by women, due to the different nature of each body.

* Place of residence and geography: where the people of the countryside differ from the people of the city, and the inhabitants of the mountains from the population of the plains, and the inhabitants of the frozen areas differ from the desert areas.

* Special health conditions: Here we talk about the special diseases of some, or the physiological conditions experienced by others in certain periods (such as pregnancy, breastfeeding and others)
