What Is Diet and Nutrition

Nutrition is the science or practice of consuming food in relation to a body’s dietary needs, while diet essentially means habitually taken food and drink.

The word diet is also used to describe the act of restricting oneself to small amount of food or special kind of food either for some medical reason or to lose weight.

Good nutrition is essential for a person’s physical and mental well being, and to achieve good nutrition it is important to have a balanced diet.

But getting a balanced diet is more difficult than it seems, owing to lack of awareness of what is balanced diet and the preference for junk food over healthy diet.

However, this unhealthy diet takes a toll on our body and leads to many lifestyle related diseases like high blood pressure, heart problems, diabetes and obesity to name a few.

To get a better understanding of healthy diet and good nutrition it is necessary to get a nutrition consultation and diet consultation to embark upon a healthy lifestyle.

One can avail the services of a nutritionist in a hospital or select one of the many online nutritionists.

Portea offers the services of well trained and established nutritionists and has in fact introduced a comprehensive health management plan ‘Portea Activ’ that is designed to better assist you in leading a healthy life.

What Is Portea Activ?

All of us desire to lead an active, healthy and happy life without any health issue. And the key ingredient to such a life is a balanced diet and a bit of exercise.

To help you in leading a full life, Portea has designed a comprehensive health management plan called ‘PORTEA ACTIV’ to make everyday living a healthy and joyful experience.

When it comes to health, most of us don’t even realize that we need to pay attention to our behavior patterns and eating habits, till we find ourselves trapped in a lifestyle related disease.

But we don’t understand is that the online information is generalised and every one of us have different nutrition needs more so if you are an athlete or someone who engages in lot of physical activity.

A healthy diet plan varies from person to person and is also depended upon your sex, your environment and your age and hence it is advisable to seek a dietician to help you chalk out a healthy diet plan.

The benefit of online diet consultation is that you can take advantage of online dietician services from the comfort of your home.

  • The first and foremost thing, you need to do is be honest, don’t lie about your food and lifestyle habits. There is absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about; the dietician and nutritionists are there, only to guide you towards a better and healthy lifestyle.
