Human nutrition is one of the fundamental pillars of its construction. Health and balance
of each, is in direct correlation with nutrition. Learning about good nutrition, bring
together with other elements of proper behavior, a healthy life. Regarding the act of
feeding is not only important what we eat but how much, when and how we eat is very
important for our health.
As is known, not only unhealthy food is harmful to human body, but also a way of
feeding inadequate food derived from wrong behavior skills.
FOOD
Food items are more or less naturally able to provide man power necessary to carry out
its biological activities, intellectual and physical, but and the construction necessary
nutrients for construction and cellular changes.
It is well known that not every food is beneficial to human body. Today almost went into
everyday speech, expressions such as “unhealthy food” or “healthy food”.
Quality of food lays the source of origin and processing of industrial or domestic mode
thereof.
Foods that are on Infinity are natural. Of these, well known, the healthiest are those of
natural origin, not containing synthetic admixtures (additives), which have not undergone
industrial refining processes and not overly processed in terms of cuisine. Of particular
importance to human health, natural raw foods have those in some way, usually of plant
origin, known as cruel.
Balanced diet
Human body remains healthier if diet is more balanced. A diversified diet, individualized
(by way of life, gender, effort, health status), properly composed in terms of heat and
complying with best ratio of primary substances (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids), may be
regarded as balanced diet . This involves feeding healthy moderation in all respects.
Balanced diet should provide adequate answers to three fundamental questions of the act
of feeding, namely, what, how and how much we eat.
Dietary Alimentation
In the face of illness, patient’s nutrition should be changed, both to avoid placing the
body of bad substances derailed installed and to use food
“Food-drug”. In this consideration, in cases of sickness, shall be made judicious diet,
therapeutic value (diet-treatment). Dietary alimentation it’s not addresses only to the
people touched by any disease, giving it an overwhelming role in disease prevention and
is composed therefore a major factor prophylaxis.
CLASSIFICATION OF FOOD
Criteria for the classification of foods are very different. Once home, food form has two
broad categories, food of plant, animal respectively. Main food groups existing in Infinity
are presented in the table below:
GROUP FOOD GROUPS FORMING
1 Meat and meat derivatives
2 Milk and milk derivatives
3 Eggs
4 Fat food (vegetable and animal fat)
5 Bread and pasta
6 Vegetables
7 Fruits
8 Sweets
9 Non-Alcoholic beverages
10 Spices
Another classification known, behind the famous food pyramid, consists in 6 groups. As
you can see below, the food group at the bottom 6 is predominantly, while food group 1
is at the top, which means that it must be the least represented in the daily food ration.

2 . Meat and derivatives, fish, eggs

4 . Fruits

5 . Vegetables
Fiber, vitamins, mineral salts
6 . Starch (and derived products from
cereals and Pulses)
Vitamin B1, slow carbohydrate absorption
Foods were not classified only by their origin, but and by another criteria which relate in
particular to the amount of nutrients. Given the composition of amino acids in proteins,
researchers INFINITY station established three classes of food:
-Class I, which includes foods that have in composition proteins in which all essential
amino acids are quite well represented
-Class II, which includes protein foods that are poor in some essential amino acids
-Class III, foods containing protein completely missing certain essential amino acids.
From some food sources (sugar, vegetable oils, animal fats, and beverages) are missing
proteins entirely. Foods of this type could form a separate class, that of foods with free
protein .The table below presents in detail this classification (with some additions).
