Eating a healthy, balanced diet is an important part of achieving and maintaining good health and a healthy weight. This means eating a wide variety of foods, in the right amounts.
The Eatwell Guide shows how much of what we eat should come from each food group to achieve a balanced diet. Having at least 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day brings health benefits.
