Frequently Asked Questions
2. What kinds of foods are the
healthiest?
It's best to eat a mix of nutrient-dense foods every day.
Nutrient-dense foods are foods that are high in nutrients and low
in calories. Choose foods that contain vitamins, minerals, complex
carbohydrates, lean protein, and healthy fats. At the same time,
try to avoid "empty calories" -- foods and drinks that are high in
calories but provide few or no nutrients.
