The Eatwell Guide: Building a Balanced Diet in the UK
Healthy eating is a cornerstone of a balanced lifestyle, and in the UK, the NHS Eatwell Guide offers clear, evidence-based recommendations for the general population. This visual guide outlines the proportions of food groups we should aim to eat to maintain health and wellbeing. But with busy lifestyles, dietary gaps are common — that’s where Herbalife can support your journey to nutritional balance.
The Eatwell Guide divides the ideal daily diet into five main food groups: fruits and vegetables, starchy carbohydrates (preferably wholegrain), proteins, dairy or alternatives, and small amounts of unsaturated oils and spreads. While the principles are simple, daily implementation can be tricky. Many people miss out on essential nutrients, especially protein, fibre, and micronutrients like iron and vitamin D.
How Herbalife Can Help: Herbalife’s Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix is a convenient way to cover multiple food group needs in one serving. It contains soy protein, dietary fibre, and 23 essential vitamins and minerals. Paired with a balanced meal or used as a meal replacement, it can help meet the Eatwell Guide’s standards, especially when time is tight.
For those needing to up their fruit and vegetable intake, Herbalife’s Instant Herbal Beverage or Aloe Vera Concentrate provide natural ingredients that support hydration and digestion — perfect complements to a nutrient-rich diet.
Incorporating these products alongside Eatwell Guide principles can help ensure balanced nutrition, even during hectic UK weekdays. Remember, Herbalife supplements should be part of a varied and balanced diet, not a replacement.
