Diet is the total amount of food consumed by a person. Nutritious food contains all the essential proteins, fats , carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins and minerals. A balanced diet should contain all these in the correct proportions and sufficient quantity. The word 'diet' implies a particular intake of food for health or weight- management reasons. Every person or culture has some preferences or taboos about food due to morality, personal taste or religion. Nutrition is the provision of materials (in the form of food) to an organism to support it's life. Food is a thing which, when eaten and digested, can be used by the body to provide energy, or substances that help in body building and repair or in the preservation of health. Food includes many things we eat and drink. It does not include alcohol, cigarettes and drugs. Food may be grouped into types according to whether they are (a)(solid or liquid) (b) (local or imported)(c) cereals, vegetables or fruits, and (d) eaten raw or cooked. Solid foods are yam, rice, bread and beans . Examples of liquid food are milk, cocoa drinks and fruit juices . Local foods can be gotten domestically eg sweet potato, guinea corn, yam and beans. Imported foods are stockfish milk , pasta and cheese. Foods that can be eaten raw are lettuce, pawpaw, cucumber and carrot . Those that can be cooked are yam , rice, meat , fish and potato. Foods can also be grouped into classes based on the chemical composition of the food and nutrients present in the food. Accordingly, foods are grouped into six classes, namely carbohydrates, proteins, fats and oils (or lipids), vitamins, minerals salt and water. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in carbohydrates is 2:1. Carbohydrates are energy-giving foods. Examples are garri yam , rice and maize. Proteins comprise carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen atoms. They may also contains sulphur and phosphorus. Proteins are used in body building and growth and repair of worn out cells . Examples are meat , fish, milk, yoghurt and beans . Fats and oils are composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Fats are solid at room temperature while oils are liquid at room temperature but their chemical compositions are similar. They are energy giving foods. Examples are animal fats, palm oil , vegetable oil , olive oil and margarine. Vitamins are required by the body in small amounts. Examples are vitamins A,B,C,D,E and K. When present , the body is healthy. When each vitamin is absent , the body suffers from a specific disease, unique to the absence of that disease. The diseases that arise when vitamins are absent are called vitamin- deficiency disease. A poor diet may have a serious impact on a person's health , causing diseases such as scurvy, kwashiorkor, obesity, diabetes, and heart conditions. It's best to eat a wide variety of foods, especially fresh, unprocessed foods.
