Nutrition and exercise are essential to achieving your fitness or healthy eating goals. Make healthier choices based on your lifestyle, personal needs, and preferences.
Diversify your diet
A healthy, balanced diet should include protein, grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and oils, according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025. Over time, eat a variety of foods from each group. For example, dark green leafy vegetables like kale provide iron and folate, while orange vegetables like carrots provide vitamin A.

Make Physical Activity a Part of Your Daily Routine
Despite work, studies, and other responsibilities, fitting exercise breaks into your schedule can keep your body in good health. For example, stretch for 15 minutes after waking in the morning, or take a 10-minute walk during your lunch break. You can find examples and videos to try at home.
