Proper nutrition is one of the prerequisites of health and thus prevents many diseases. It is known that eating enough fruits and vegetables is preferable, that you should reduce the use of fats and eat white meat (chicken, fish, turkey) mostly, steam cook and avoid frying.

Ill-mixed food is digested for about 8 hours and more, rots in the stomach and then the body spends a large amount of energy. All this results in the creation of toxic substances that cause stomach discomfort, bloating, pain in the upper part of the abdomen, creating excessive amounts of gas and constipation. And those nourishing ingredients from the food disappear. All intakes are partly consumed by oxygen, while others can affect and change the acid base balance in the body. Food is divided into three groups: alkaline, acid and neutral.

Alkaline ingredients are: sea algae, sunflower and millet, mushrooms, soy, dried lentils, fruits and fruit juices, jam, honey, yellow sugar, candy, cocoa powder, coconut, almonds, yogurt, milk, fruit yogurt, sour cream, cream, sour milk, fresh cheese, freshly cooked and dry vegetables (apart from leek, dried onion and white beet).

Acid foods are: fat, mayonnaise, eggs, pork fat, cereals, flour, cookies with fruit, bread, biscuits, walnuts, plums, cooked juices from fruits and vegetables, fresh and dry yeast, vinegar, chocolate, red oily dishes, delicatessen products, offal, fat cans, poultry, game, saltwater and freshwater fish, bacon, shellfish.

Neutral foods are vegetable oils.

What the body needs most is water. You should drink it between but also during meals and at the same time bear in mind that the body needs at least two and a half liters of water a day. You should drink it several times a day. This is a good habit and once gained can help you ease some health problems.

You should be moderate with the use of salt, this goes for everyone. As for daily needs, the salt that is already found in some foods is enough for our body.

Chocolate can be the cause of headache. It is a headache that occurs as a kind of allergy to substances that chocolate contains. This is confirmed by certain allergy tests, and if they are positive, chocolate mustn’t be consumed.

Concerning the diet, it is necessary to reduce the use of saturated fats (of animal origin) in favor of unsaturated (of vegetable origin). Fish should be eaten at least once a week, which is one of the conditions of a healthy diet and is also good for heart and blood vessels. Not every fish is lean. There are fish that have no more than 3 percent fat, but there are half oily fish (from 3 to 8 percent fat) and oily (more than 8 percent). The first group includes hake, trout, sea bass, another carp, dentex, tuna, and the third – salmon, eel and herring.

Acid base balance in the body can be disrupted by the way the food is prepared. If you cook up the food more than once, bread, fry it in deep fat, roast in animal fat, the acidity in the body will increase. Properly prepared and combined food will be maximally decomposed, absorbed and used by the body. Foods of animal origin should be combined with foods of vegetable origin, so that acid base balance is not in disorder. You should combine foods that produce acid reaction with foods that give alkaline reaction.

The choice of food, amount and way of preparing it must be coordinated by the age, weight and physiological condition. Diet must be complete and diverse in order to provide the necessary ingredients to the body: minerals, vitamins, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vegetable fibers, water etc.

Combine foods, adding herbal spices, parsley and oregano to it. Eat potatoes and pasta with vegetables sauce. Split bread and potatoes into two meals. Foods rich in protein should be taken together in the same meal, so that the body can take a fuller advantage of them. Within that meal you should not combine carbohydrates and proteins. After a cooked meal do not eat raw fruits and other raw foods. Do not eat meat with rice, cheese or bread, but foods with a high percentage of water. Combine grilled meat with red or white onion and fresh salads. Pour some lemon juice and parsley leaves over the fish. Do not eat the soup with noodles, eggs and cake with milk and eggs in the same meal. Do not combine biscuits with the sour milk products. Do not eat meat, eggs and fish at the same time. Do not mix too much food in the same meal, because then you will overload the digestive organs. Seeds are eaten alone or with a vegetable salad (as a substitute for oil). Apples and bananas, which are not fermented immediately after a meal, combine with cereals. Fruit that is quickly fermented, such as peach, plum and strawberry, eat separately. Do not combine milk with ingredients made of flour.

Well combined food affects the proper development of the body, good mood and overall health. Eat wisely and enjoy a healthy life!
