Priorities of a good diet
Table of Contents
1. Caloricity energy balance
The food we eat delivers energy, which we express in kilocalories (kcal). The basic unit of work, or energy and heat, in the SI system, is the jule (J). The amount of energy delivered is absolutely the most important factor affecting the change in body weight. It comes from physics itself, and specifically from the first principle of thermodynamics of James Joule. This principle is one of the basic laws of therodynamics. However, the amount of power delivered to the body has to be equal to the energy expended.2. The distribution of macromolecules
The second most important thing is the total breakdown of macronutrients in the diet. It's possible to have a calorie-deficient diet that causes weight loss. Of course, it's protein, carbohydrates and fats (BWT). That's second because each of the three has a different effect on how the body works. The proper proportion of BWT is very important in the context of changes in the composition of our bodies.3. Vitamins and minerals
The reduction diet (or any other) should pay attention not only to the appropriate amount of food but also to its quality. Therefore, it is worth taking care to cover the daily requirement for micro- and macro-elements that are necessary for the proper functioning of the body. Most of them we are able to provide with food, but it is important to pay attention to them during reduction due to the reduction in the quantity of food consumed during this period. Of course, these priorities apply to people who want to change their appearance.4. Time and distribution of meals during the day
After determining calories, choosing macronutrients and healthy foods, it's worth considering when you should eat meals. It's only now that you should consider whether carbohydrates should be eaten in the morning, or perhaps in the evening, and at what time after exercise. Should you eat three or five meals? These are, in a sense, secondary issues, because making sure that you get the right amount of protein at the right time is missing the goal if you don't eat the right amounts of protein during the day.5. Supplementation
Supplementation is the least important of all of these factors, but it still affects the results. Some people even say that supplements add only about 5 percent to the effort. There are even those who say that it's 1 percent. These numbers are low, but many people say that they feel a significant increase in strength after creatine alone.
