Foods with too much sugar and salt should be avoided. Processed foods should also be avoided. Limit how much you eat. Soda is another thing that is not good for us. The sugar can make us gain weight and give us diabetes if we are not careful. They should be avoided as much as possible.

So when eating a healthy diet please remember that you are going to be healthier and happier. Eat foods that are good for your body and anything else eat in moderation. If you stick to these guidelines you should have a healthy diet in no time. You will find that your body will function better and you may even start thinking more clearly.
