What does "healthy eating" actually mean?

Healthy nutrition plays an important role for more and more people and is also becoming more and more present as a topic in public. But what does it actually mean?

Basically, a healthy diet provides you with enough energy and all the nutrients your body needs. At the same time, it should be digestible and enjoyable, which means that individual intolerances or allergies as well as your likes and dislikes are taken into account. Due to the great variety of foods available to us, ethical or religious beliefs can also be taken into account without any deficiencies or loss of health.

A healthy diet contributes significantly to your well-being. It gives you energy that you can convert into zest for life, creativity and activity. Of course, a healthy diet has a positive effect on your health, protecting you from illness and injury or alleviating existing ailments. Components of our food that could be harmful (in high quantities) are avoided or consumed only in tolerable quantities.
