We live in a world of plenty, with more than enough food to choose from.
Wander down any grocery store aisle and marvel at the options in every
category. But what influences which foods we decide to buy and eat?
We eat because we are hungry. We eat for energy. You might know some of
the reasons we crave certain foods, but most of our food decisions come
from hidden forces.
Food is and should be a pleasure. One of the scientific food principles
that intrigued me most was the idea that we shouldn’t restrict our
eating.
Types of Diners
Occidental Diners love to munch. They are often unconscious of their
eating habits and do not discriminate between foods on the basis of
nutritional quality, freshness, or calorie content.
Irregular Diners typically pay little attention to their nutritional
needs. Eating is considered a mere necessity. Food is consumed like fuel
in order to keep functioning.
Habitual Diners prefer all things in keeping with a certain routine.
Many of their habits are acquired during adolescence or young adulthood,
such as smoking, drinking or enjoying certain foods.
Types of Food
Food variety means eating a wide variety of foods from each of the five
food groups, in the amounts recommended. Eating many different foods
helps maintain a healthy and interesting diet which provides a range of
different nutrients to the body. Eating a variety of foods promotes good
health and can help reduce the risk of disease.
Foods are grouped together because they provide similar amounts of key
nutrients. For example, key nutrients of the milk, yoghurt, cheese and
alternatives group include calcium and protein, while the fruit group is
a good source of vitamins, especially vitamin C.
