Nutrition essentials

This section contains practical advice about making healthier and safer food choices. Remember that to have a healthy diet, most people should be eating:

* more fruit and veg
* more starchy foods such as rice, bread, pasta (try to choose wholegrain varieties when you can) and potatoes
* less fat, salt and sugar
* some protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, eggs and pulses

It's also important to eat a variety of foods to make sure we get all the nutrients our bodies need.
