Diet For Healthy Human Body.

    Possessing true health means having the ability to live with full use of our faculties, alert and happy to be alive ,even in old age, despite occasional bouts of illness

A healthy diet is essential for good health and nutrition. It protects you against many chronic noncommunicable diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Eating a variety of foods and consuming less salt, sugars and saturated and industrially-produced trans-fats are essential for a healthy diet.

It is about 100 trillion cells to build a human body. There are 200 different types of these microscopic living units, each of which is highly complex. Similar cells join together to make a tissue, two or more tissues form on an organ and linked organs create a system. Body systems interact to form a living human being.

The human body is made of the following systems. 

• The Locomotive system. 
• The Blood vascular system 
• The Digestive system 
• The Respiratory system 
• The Ductless glands
• The Urogenital system
• The Nervous system 
• The Special sense organs
• The Excretory system. 

These systems should function efficiently for wellbeing, both physically and mentally. A healthy lifestyle can be attained by maintaining a balanced diet and keeping into consideration to meet all the essential nutrients required by the body system.

When it comes to planning a healthy diet, it needs to provide the correct amount of nutrients and energy to sustain the activity you do during the day. This not only includes exercise, but all other activity including housework, cycling to work, or playing with your children

• Choose good carbs, not no carbs. Whole grains are your best bet
• Pay attention to the protein package. Fish, poultry, nuts, and beans are the best choices
• Choose foods with healthy fats, limit foods high in saturated fat, and avoid foods with trans      fat. Plant oils, nuts, and fish are the healthiest sources.
• Choose a fiber-filled diet, rich in whole grains, vegetables, and fruits.
• Eat more vegetables and fruits. Go for color and variety—dark green, yellow, orange, and red.
• Calcium is important. But milk isn’t the only, or even best, source.
• Water is best to quench your thirst. Skip the sugary drinks, and go easy on the milk and juice.
• Eating less salt is good for everyone’s health. Choose more fresh foods and fewer processed    foods.
• Moderate drinking can be healthy—but not for everyone. You must weigh the benefits and risks.
• A daily multivitamin is a great nutrition insurance policy. Some extra vitamin D may add an extra health boost.

What we eat doesn’t just affect our physical health, it can also affect our mental health and well being. Eating well, which means having a balanced diet full of vegetables and nutrients, can improve your sense of well being and your mood.

Holistic health.

Holistic health is defined as a state of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, nutritional and sociological well being. From the above its evident that mere bodily health is not considered as complete health.

Holistic health refers to a modern movement that regards health as a dynamic state of the total human being. Although the symptoms of a disease may be found in certain tissues or organs, health is not a mere removal of such symptoms by the treatment of the affected tissues or organs, but a state of multidimensional experience according to this perspective. The mind, body and environment are in a state of dynamic interaction in an optimum state of efficiency is what health means.

The mental stress was the root cause of several types of common illness such as hypertension, hyper acidity etc. The stresser (the original source of stress) excites the hypothalamus in the brain. This vital organ which controls the autonomic nervous system activates the pituitary to secrete the stress hormone which stimulates the secretion of several hormones and steroids. More sugar released into the blood and BP increased as a result of these changes. Stress is unavoidable in life. When it goes beyond a certain tolerance level the system breaks down resulting in illness.

"IF NEGATIVE EMOTION COULD CAUSE ILLNESS POSITIVE EMOTION CAN CAUSE WELLNESS.”

CONCLUSION

    TO REITERATE THAT HEALTHY DIET ALONE IS NOT SUFFICIENT, BUT STABLE MIND IS ALSO REQUIRED FOR HOLLISTIC WELL BEING.
