In an ideal world, we would be surrounded by healthy food and our environment would encourage us to eat well but unfortunately, the reality is far from that. Wherever we turn we see calorie-dense, nutrient-poor and unethically and harmfully produced food. This makes it incredibly difficult to diet or change your lifestyle for the better. It raises the question on how to deal with the constant temptation of cheap and tasty but junk food, if we want to eat healthy, ethically produced food. We can decide just to trust our self-control but we also have the choice to avoid the things we don’t want to eat.

Rainbow diet to eat enough vitamins
3 billion people have micro nutrient deficiency on the earth, although people in western society have every chance to get the vitamins they need from their diet. Micronutrients have a role in immunity, energy production, blood clotting, growth and development, bone health and disease prevention. Only by eating diverse and colourful foods you can built a healthier diet with all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals you need.
Problems of modern diet
Eating is a part of everyone’s life and although it has a great effect on a lot of things, many people don’t seem to think about it too much. Only if we think of it on a personal scale what we eat determines how much energy we will have during the day and not only the quantity but the quality of this energy. I think this carelessness happens for a very simple reason, that in 21st-century food is so easily available (especially for people living in the western society) that you can find something to eat wherever you are and whatever you do.
