I come to London in 15 days and I want to buy this kind of products because we don't find them in Paris. So, do you have some good address to let me, please ? Thanks a lot !

Why not just cook a meal yourself ffs?

For a healthy diet, you need to be eating small to medium meals regularly. 4 or even 5 times a day. Each meal (apart from breakfast which should preferably be fibre rich), should contain a balanced ammount of carbohydrates for energy, (from potatoes, rice and pasta, etc) protien (from fish, chicken, occassional red meat is fine, soya is good too) and plenty of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants (simple fresh fruit and veg). Eat like this and make sure you are well hydrated (fruit juice is as good as water, any fluid counts, but some fluids have negative effects too, such as alcohol or caffiene rich drinks.)

Now for the science bit: Protien is essential for repairing muscle and keeping the muscle you do have healthy (this includes your heart, lungs, brain etc). You naturally lose the ammount of protien you have throughout the day (through urine etc) so this needs to be replenished regularly on a daily basis.

Carbohydrates are essential for energy. You won't be able to function without it. It also regulates body fat and glucose etc.

Vitamins and minerals are obviously essential for a variety of reasons. For normal growth and development, for the healthy maintenance of the cells, tissues, and organs that make up our bodies, and also to let us efficiently use chemical energy provided by food.

You can have a wide range of healthy meals with this, from Thai, Chinese, Italian, British, Indian, etc. Just make sure each meal contains balanced ammounts of these three. On the bright side too, fresh veg and rice and pasta is a lot cheaper than crappy junk food!

This doesn't mean you cant have chocolate or pizza/takeaway/etc, just save them as very occassional treats.

My teacher told us to look into it because we will be doing an activity related to this next week. Thank you!

Each of them 3 diets are different. Each one of them have different effects on different people.. it dont matter how many calories u eat in a day, its as long as u dont get alot of carbs and too much of the bad fats that cause weight gain. for you height, weight, age and activity level there are different amounts of carbs, protein, fat and calories you should eat.. so really each of those diets depends on who the person is.

Low Fat , High Protean Low Cab , Calorie counting or what.

IMO, the best diet is no diet. Just eat right.

Get out all the food that you don’t want to eat out of your house. Also make up your mind how you are going to eat & stay with that way of eating when you are home, when you go out to eat, when you are at work, at friends houses, or whenever.

Eat a balanced diet of whole grains, veggies, fruit, meat, fish, & occasional desserts. Exercise 5-7 times a week. You don’t have to exercise hard but you need to exercise. Drink plenty of water every day.

If you follow these guidelines, you will get your body into the shape that you want it to be.

Good Luck!

I’m trying to eat more low-carb, low fat foods but there’s nothing in my kitchen like that I’m dieting, I don’t have time too cook big meals and I’m 17. I have burgers, rice, waffles, brown bread, chips, ready meals, ham, eggs. I’ll go shopping tomorrow, what should I get?

Definitely go shopping. Some ideas are lean meats such as turkey slices, fish, chicken, Also, fruits and veggies of course. Low fat dairy would be good. You have to get some fats and carbs though, make sure its the healthy kind. Nuts have great fats, so does peanut butter. Fiber foods and anything whole grain are great carbs. So some whole wheat pasta, nuts (I like pistachios), bran cereal would all be good.
