It is important to keep the variety in your diet to include all the different vitamins, minerals, and nutrients the body needs. All foods can fit into a balanced nutrition plan, as long as moderation principles are used. For example, if you had two slices of bacon for breakfast, you might want to choose a leaner meat for lunch, such as fish . Choose natural, unprocessed foods whenever possible.
Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy .
FAT Fat is actually stored energy. Fat sources are used most often in lengthy workouts. Vegetable fats tend to be unsaturated and better for your heart. Protein is used as an energy source, only in the absence of carbohydrates. All information provided by Amy Janeski, Registered Dietitian with Sodexho Marriott Services.
