    4. How big should the portions of food be for a healthy diet?
    How big should the portions of food be for a healthy diet?

    I want to eat enough nutrients per day but I do not want to overeat and give myself the possibity of having a stroke or heart attack. If you don't eat enough nutrients you can get cancer.


    I need to find the right balance as my mum died of cancer and my dad died of a strokeand heart attack, so it is in my genes. This is really important for me. Thank you.

        Most experts say you should never feel fool, always leave room so that you feel like you could eat a little more.Not too much bread, cakes ,and biscuits though.
