  5. THE MAJOR BASIC COMPONENTS OF A BALANCED DIET ARE: CARBOHYDRATES: the daily carbs consumption should be 45-55 percent in our diet. These carbohydrates are essential to provide energy to the body to vigorously work the whole day. They keep the body fresh and active the whole day. We can find carbohydrates in grains (such as maize, wheat, corn, millet, oats, rice, etc.), flour, potatoes, sweet potatoes, yam, sugar, fruits (in the form of sugar). WWW.EDUMINATTI.COM

  6. PROTEIN The intake of proteins should be within 10-35 percentages. The extended intake can be harmful in the future as consuming a large amount can cause an increment in the level of certain acids (as uric acid). It helps hi the development of the body tissues, body growth, and the maintenance of the body. Fish and pulses are the best sources of protein. It can also be found in meat, egg, soyabeans, nuts, etc. WWW.EDUMINATTI.COM

  7. FATS Fats are known to be the energy suppliers of the body. Also body stores energy for the future in the form of oils and fats. The intake percentages of the fats are 20-35% and not more than that. CBSE Schools of Dehradun teaches that The accumulation of extra body fat is harmful to the body in the long term as it can cause obesity and other dysfunction in the internal organs of the body. They are also helpful in hormone production within the body. The sources of fats are vegetable oils, animal oils, nuts, seeds, dairy products, etc. WWW.EDUMINATTI.COM

They are responsible for the regulation of the body’s metabolism, cell growth, healing (aiding cells), and multiple other biochemical functions of the body. There are different vitamins (vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin C, vitamin D, and vitamin K), and deficiency of one vitamin can cause several diseases. Minerals such as zinc, iron, calcium, etc., help in building the damages and forming new cells. A range of fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, meat, etc., are sources to it. WWW.EDUMINATTI.COM

  9. WATER AND FIBERS A human body is 80% water, and only 20% of the water intake is from food. Thus we need to drink as much water as possible. It keeps the body hydrated and increases the metabolism of the body; it helps in the functioning of the body and also releases excessive fat. The urinary gland throws out the body wastes using urine which is in liquid form that is water-based, so it helps in keeping the body clean. Talking about fibers, they help to maintain blood sugar levels, easy excretion, and other body functions. Fibers are found in fibrous fruits and vegetables, whole grains, oats, etc. WWW.EDUMINATTI.COM
