"Protein, fibre, carbs, fat - we're told to eat all these things for a balanced, nutritious diet. But is there a definitive set of foods that could set us on the path to peak health?"
"Every January, we are bombarded with content encouraging us to follow a healthy diet."
"This can feel overwhelming, particularly when we receive conflicting information about what to eat and what to avoid. Following advice from trusted sources can help us make healthy choices and prevent confusion."
Protein, fibre, carbohydrates and fats form the core components of a balanced, nutritious diet. No single list of foods guarantees peak health; dietary needs vary by individual and context. Seasonal surges in diet advice, particularly in January, increase exposure to conflicting recommendations. Conflicting information about what to eat and avoid can create overwhelm and uncertainty. Relying on trusted, evidence-based sources and consistent principles — such as balance, variety and appropriate portion sizes — helps support healthier choices and reduces confusion. Practical, personalized guidance can translate general nutrition components into sustainable eating patterns.
