A balanced diet consists of foods from five main food groups: carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals, and dairy and milk. Carbohydrates provide energy, proteins are found in meat, poultry, fish and help build the body, and fats give energy and make other nutrients work. Vitamins and minerals boost the immune system and help the body grow, found in fruits and vegetables. Dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cheese provide calcium and other nutrients essential for bone and tooth health. A balanced diet along with exercise and a positive attitude supports overall wellness.
