A great way to start the day would be with a breakfast that incorporates fruit such as kiwi, which contains vitamin C and is a great source of fibre and can be accompanied by wholegrain carbohydrates.

Breakfast contains 25% of total energy.

At snack time you could have a juice made by yourself with pieces of fruit and it would be better to avoid adding sugar.

The snack contains 10 to 15% of the total energy.

At lunchtime we can incorporate a plate of salad to go with rice, pasta, pulses or a protein food such as fish.

The lunchtime provides 30 to 40% of total energy.

At dinner you should eat foods that don't contain a lot of fat, for example you could eat a cooked vegetable with a grilled protein food.

The evening meal contains 20 to 30% of total energy.
