      A healthy diet is one where you each lots of fresh fruit, vegetables and meat and reduce your intact of fatty foods, sweets and chocolate!

      I can only really echo what Melissa said, in general it seems that there’s a lot of the fun things that you should have less of. So not too much sugar, fat, alcohol (not yet perhaps!) and probably not too much meat either. Nutrition is a really tricky area because it’s hard to control what people eat to study it, and also we choose things mostly because they taste good.

      A healthy diet is varied and contains much fruit, vegetables, whole grains, pulses (beans, lentils etc)
