Many people all across the world struggle to eat healthily. Here is a picture of how much of what you should be having.
A healthy and balanced diet includes 5 portions of fruit/vegetables a day; 2 portions of fish per week; meat the size of your hand; some dairy products and some carbohydrates.
You should also have 2000 calories a day = girl or 2500 calories = boy, here is how much salt you should have a day:
- 1 to 3 years – 2g salt a day (0.8g sodium)
- 4 to 6 years – 3g salt a day (1.2g sodium)
- 7 to 10 years – 5g salt a day (2g sodium)
- 11 years and over – 6g salt a day (2.4g sodium)
Here is how much sugar you should have a day:.
Men shouldn’t have more than 9 teaspoons daily, while women shouldn’t have more than 6 teaspoons. This amounts to a max of 37.5 grams of sugar or 150 calories from sugar for men, and 25 grams of sugar or 100 calories from sugar for women.
