Nutrition isn’t just about eating the right foods; it’s about fuelling your body to function at its best, aiding in recovery, and supporting overall well-being.

Diet & Nutrition: The Basics. 

Hydration

Staying hydrated is a crucial aspect of good nutrition. Water supports every bodily function, from digestion and nutrient transport to temperature regulation and joint lubrication. Aim to drink plenty of water throughout the day, and adjust your intake based on your activity level and environmental conditions.

Healthy Eating Habits

• Balanced Diet: Incorporate a variety of foods from all food groups to ensure you get a wide range of nutrients.

• Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes to avoid overeating, which can lead to weight gain and other health issues.

• Regular Meals: Eat regular, balanced meals and snacks to maintain energy levels and prevent excessive hunger.

• Limit Processed Foods: Reduce the intake of processed foods high in sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats. Focus on whole, minimally processed foods instead.
