When it comes to diet, people often think only about weight loss. In reality, following a balanced diet means taking care of your well-being in a 360-degree way. A proper diet helps prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and some types of cancer.
Eating well also improves sleep quality, cognitive abilities, and mood. But what does "balanced diet" really mean?
It means varying foods, choosing fresh and seasonal products, and limiting simple sugars, saturated fats, and excess salt.
It's important to listen to your body, respect hunger and satiety signals, and abandon the concept of "restriction" as the only way to stay healthy. In my practice, I accompany each patient on a sustainable, personalized journey based on objective data.
There are no miraculous foods or shortcuts: health starts with daily choices. And good nutrition is the best choice we can make for ourselves.
