BaLaCeD DiEt

Yoga trainers recommend a balanced diet (sattwik). There should be an interval of 4 hours between meals.
The ratio for the composition of meals should be:
grains and cereals 30% of the calorific value
dairy products 20%
vegetables and roots 25%
fruits and honey 20%
nuts remaining 5%
Regarding the quantity of food, it should be moderate (mitahara), only that which satisfies one's appetite.
One should avoid overeating, fasting or eating once a day. Stale or non-nutritious food, you know, is harmful.
