From the 13th to the 17th of June this week, the British Nutrition Foundation is celebrating Healthy Eating Week! It takes place once a year and has a new theme for each day. This year, the focus is on eating well for you and the planet 🌍
Each day has a different focus to help you to build a nutritious & balanced diet.
📅 Monday: Focus on fibre – for meals and snacks
Have more wholegrain foods, fruit and vegetables, beans, peas, and lentils
📅 Tuesday: Get at least 5 A DAY – put plenty on your plate
Have at least 5 portions of a variety of fruit and vegetables every day
📅 Wednesday: Vary your protein – be more creative
Eat a wider variety of protein foods and choose plant protein sources more often
📅 Thursday: Stay hydrated – fill up from the tap
Have about 6-8 drinks a day and choose reusable or recyclable drinks containers
📅 Friday: Reduce food waste – know your portions
Aim for the right amount when you shop, cook, and eat to avoid throwing food away
We will be sharing our top tips to help you make simple swaps and smart choices to help you achieve a healthier, more sustainable diet for you and for the planet 😀
