So we asked the experts to give us some advices for a correct diet, without losing the pleasure of eating.
The password is “balance”; with exception to specific cases that need medical advice, a correct diet should be balanced and with a good proportion of macro nutrients: carbohydrates or sugars or glucides (pasta, bread, fruit and sweets), proteins or protids (meat, fish, eggs, and legumes) and fats or lipids (oils and fats contained in food).

The Food Pyramid shows us right balance of the macro nutrients that we need daily.
As you can see it is important to eat cereals, legumes and fruits which are the basic components of the Mediterranean diet, with less meat and fats.

For those who do not really like the percentages, we propose a food selection table based on the concept of “portion”.

Here follows an example of a normocaloric diet of 2.200 kcal a day for an adult whose weight is about 70 kilos and includes some physical exercise in his daily activities (a person who has a sedentary job but makes one hour a day of physical exercise or of walking).
