Is It Bad To Eat The Same Foods Everyday?
Is it bad to eat the same foods everyday? Read on to know about the healthy and the unhealthy sides of it....
Some people prefer to eat the same meal almost every day. Though it is boring, they prefer the same breakfast, the same lunch and same dinner day after day. Is it healthy?
Well, when it comes to food, variety is important. Some people stick to the same recipes, may be due to convenience factor too.
For example: Idli for breakfast, dal rice and sabji for the lunch and curd rice with sambar for dinner. They repeat this for the whole week. How healthy is that? Let us discuss...
Fact #1
If you fill your plate with a variety of fruits or vegetables and keep the other recipes same, it is okay. That is because you will get a variety of nutrients and antioxidants from the fruits and veggies.
So, if you don't have the patience to cook or try new recipes, keep getting a variety of fruits and vegetables to your plate keeping your cooked foods same.
Fact #2

Fact #5

But if your diet lacks probiotics or prebiotics, your health may soon suffer! So, if you keep changing the variety of fruits or vegetables you are eating, you will be able to get more variety of nutrients.
Fact #6
The reason why we need variety is: no single food has every necessary nutrient in it. Some are protein rich, some are rich in carbohydrates, some are rich in vitamins and minerals.
You need all nutrients in the right proportions to live a healthy life. So, maintain variety.
