It's best to eat a mix of nutrient-dense foods every day.
Nutrient-dense foods are foods that are high in nutrients and low
in calories. Choose foods that contain vitamins, minerals,
complex carbohydrates, lean protein, and healthy fats. At the same
time, try to avoid "empty calories" -- foods and drinks that are
high in calories but provide few or no nutrients. (Answer
