Healthy Eating

MJJ24

Hello all, does anyone please have any tips on how to eat healthy and get the vitamins and minerals needed when you struggle eating stuff outside of safe foods (which for me are not the healthiest)? I have had a few deficiencies in the past and want to take steps to prevent them but its hard! Thanks in advance Slight smile

  • It sucks that all the best and most comfortable foods to eat are all bad for you. If possible try to include some new  foods into your diet but gradually do it, small amounts at a time. Allowing your body to get accustomed to them.

    It’s difficult to eat new things as the body isn’t used to new sensations. I have trouble eating some foods as I cannot stand the textures.

    Used to hate raspberries and grapes but like them now as I only had small amounts at a time. Mum would give me a few every lunchtime to have with a sandwich.

    Keep a journal / log of what you have eaten throughout the day. It’s easy for people to eat too much of the same thing as they don’t keep track of their food consumption.
