What is the Australian guide to healthy eating?<\/h2>\n
The\u00a0Australian guide to healthy eating<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is a food selection guide which visually represents the proportion of the five food groups recommended for consumption each day.<\/p>\n
Why do we need dietary guidelines?<\/h2>\n
A healthy diet improves quality of life and wellbeing, and protects against chronic diseases. For infants and children, good nutrition is essential for normal growth.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, diet-related chronic diseases are currently a major cause of death and disability among Australians.<\/p>\n
To ensure that Australians can make healthy food choices, we need dietary advice that is based on the best scientific evidence on food and health. The\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines\u00a0<\/em>and the\u00a0Australian guide to healthy eating<\/em>\u00a0have been developed using the latest evidence and expert opinion. These guidelines will therefore help in the prevention of diet-related chronic diseases, and will improve the health and wellbeing of the Australian community.<\/p>\n
How do I make healthy food choices?<\/h2>\n
There are many things that affect food choices, for example, personal preferences, cultural backgrounds or philosophical choices such as vegetarian dietary patterns. NHMRC has taken this into consideration in developing practical and realistic advice. Keeping the\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em>\u00a0in mind will help your choice of healthy foods.<\/p>\n
There are many ways for you to have a diet that promotes health and the\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em>\u00a0provide many options in their recommendations. The advice focuses on dietary patterns that promote health and wellbeing rather than recommending that you eat \u2013 or completely avoid \u2013 specific foods.<\/p>\n
Many of the health problems due to poor diet in Australia stem from excessive intake of foods that are high in energy, saturated fat, added sugars and\/or added salt but relatively low in nutrients. These include fried and fatty take-away foods, baked products like pastries, cakes and biscuits, savoury snacks like chips, and sugar-sweetened drinks. If these foods are consumed regularly they can increase the risk of excessive weight gain and other diet-related conditions and diseases.<\/p>\n
Many diet-related health problems in Australia are also associated with inadequate intake of nutrient-dense foods, including vegetables, legumes\/beans, fruit and wholegrain cereals. A wide variety of these nutritious foods should be consumed every day to promote health and wellbeing and help protect against chronic disease.<\/p>\n
Do the Australian dietary guidelines recommend that I only eat certain foods?<\/h2>\n
No. The\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em>,\u00a0Australian guide to healthy eating<\/em>\u00a0and consumer resources assist by helping you to choose foods for a healthy diet. They also provide advice on how many serves of these food groups you need to consume everyday depending upon your age, gender, body size and physical activity levels.<\/p>\n
Evidence suggests Australians need to eat more:<\/strong><\/h6>\n
- \n
- vegetables and legumes\/beans<\/li>\n
- fruits<\/li>\n
- wholegrain cereals<\/li>\n
- reduced fat milk, yoghurt, cheese<\/li>\n
- fish, seafood, poultry, eggs, legumes\/beans (including soy), and nuts and seeds.<\/li>\n
- red meat (young females only)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Evidence suggests Australians need to eat less:<\/strong><\/h6>\n
- \n
- starchy vegetables (i.e. there is a need to include a wider variety of different types and colours of vegetables)<\/li>\n
- refined cereals<\/li>\n
- high and medium fat dairy foods<\/li>\n
- red meats (adult males only)<\/li>\n
- food and drinks high in saturated fat, added sugar, added salt, or alcohol (e.g. fried foods, most take-away foods from quick service restaurants, cakes and biscuits, chocolate and confectionery, sweetened drinks).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
How have the Australian dietary guidelines changed since the last edition?<\/h2>\n
Key messages in the guidelines are similar to the 2003 version, but the revised\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em>\u00a0have been updated with recent scientific evidence about health outcomes. To make the information easier to understand and use, the revised guidelines are based on foods and food groups, rather than nutrients as in the 2003 edition.<\/p>\n
The evidence base has strengthened for:<\/p>\n
- \n
- The association between the consumption of sugar sweetened drinks and the risk of excessive weight gain in both children and adults<\/li>\n
- The health benefits of breastfeeding<\/li>\n
- The association between the consumption of milk and decreased risk of heart disease and some cancers<\/li>\n
- The association between the consumption of fruit and decreased risk of heart disease<\/li>\n
- The association between the consumption of non-starchy vegetables and decreased risk of some cancers<\/li>\n
- The association between the consumption of wholegrain cereals and decreased risk of heart disease and excessive weight gain.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Brochures, posters and more…<\/h2>\n
The\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em>\u00a0(the guidelines) provide up-to-date advice about the amount and kinds of foods that we need to eat for health and wellbeing. The recommendations are based on scientific evidence, developed after looking at good quality research.<\/p>\n
By following the dietary patterns recommended in the guidelines, we will get enough of the nutrients essential for good health and also help reduce our risk of chronic health problems such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, some cancers and obesity.<\/p>\n

Food essentials<\/h2>\n
The key to eating well is to enjoy a variety of nutritious foods from each of the five food groups. Foods in the five food groups are grouped by their type and their contribution of nutrients to Australian diets. Within each group, healthy choices are those that are lowest in saturated fats, added sugars and added salt.<\/p>\n
Choosing a variety of nutritious foods, both from the five different groups and within each group, over the week and seasonally increases the likelihood of obtaining sufficient intake of all nutrients. Eating a variety of nutritious foods can protect our bodies from chronic disease and may also increase quality of life and longevity.<\/p>\n
The five food groups<\/h2>\n
Guideline 2 recommends we enjoy a wide variety of nutritious foods from the five groups every day<\/h2>\n
\n\nThe key to eating well is to enjoy a variety of nutritious foods from each of the five food groups.<\/p>\n
These five food groups make up the Australian guide to healthy eating (see right).<\/p>\n
Foods are grouped together because they provide similar amounts of the key nutrients of that food group.\u00a0 For example, the key nutrients of the milk, yogurt, cheese and alternatives food group include calcium and protein, while the fruit group is a good source of vitamins, especially vitamin C.<\/p>\n
To meet the nutrient requirements essential for good health, you need to eat a variety from each of the five food groups daily, in the recommended amounts.\u00a0 It is not necessary to eat from each food group at every meal. In fact, in some instances, you only need to eat some of the foods in each food group a couple of times a week.\u00a0 Take a look at\u00a0Guideline 2<\/a>\u00a0and discover the wide variety of choices within the five groups.<\/p>\n
It is also important to enjoy a variety of foods within each of the five food groups because different foods vary in the amount of the key nutrients that they provide.\u00a0 For example, in the vegetables and legumes food group, orange vegetables such as carrots and pumpkins contain significantly more vitamin A than other vegetables such as white potatoes.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s take a look at the five food groups and discover the incredible variety and the abundance of choice there is when eating from these groups.<\/p>\n
More information on the five food groups:<\/h2>\n
- \n
- Vegetables and legumes\/beans<\/a><\/li>\n
- Fruit\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n
- Grain (cereal) foods, mostly wholegrain and\/or high cereal fibre varieties\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n
- Lean meats and poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, nuts and seeds and legumes\/beans\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n
- Milk, yoghurt cheese and\/or alternatives, mostly reduced fat\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
How much do we need each day?<\/h2>\n
\n\nThe\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em>\u00a0inform people of different ages, life stages and gender, the\u00a0minimum number of serves<\/a>\u00a0from each food group they need to eat each day, to make sure they get the full amount of nutrients their body needs.<\/p>\n
Most people who want to lose weight should stick to the minimum number of serves. However, people in their healthy weight range, who are taller than average or more physically active, may find they need extra serves from the five food groups.<\/p>\n
Ideally, most of the extra serves should be chosen from the vegetables, fruit and grain (cereals) food groups but some extra choices can be made from milk, yoghurt, cheese and\/or\u00a0 alternatives, the lean meat and poultry, fish, eggs and\/or alternative group, and including less often, unsaturated fats\/oils\/spreads.\u00a0Discretionary choices<\/a>\u00a0are often an enjoyable part of the Australian diet, and can be included occasionally if your energy needs allow this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nOften people find that to get enough serves from all the food groups they need to:<\/p>\n
- \n
- swap discretionary choices for foods from the five food groups<\/li>\n
- make breads or grains part of at least two meals most days<\/li>\n
- include vegetables at least twice a day, particularly important if you would like to lose weight<\/li>\n
- make vegetables take up at least one third of meals and half the meal if you are trying to lose weight. So it\u2019s important to serve vegetables or salad as a side dish even when eating meals like pasta, lasagne or risotto. By eating more vegetables in your meals, serves of other foods will be smaller and the overall meal will have fewer kilojoules.<\/li>\n
- include lean meat or meat alternative as part of at least one meal a day<\/li>\n
- add fruit to at least two meals or use as snacks or desserts<\/li>\n
- include a serve of low fat milk, yoghurt or cheese as a significant part of at least two meals or snacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
It\u2019s also good for your health to include:<\/p>\n
- \n
- fish meals every week<\/li>\n
- meals with legumes every week<\/li>\n
- a wide variety of different coloured vegetables every day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Fat, salt, sugar, alcohol<\/h2>\n
ealthier. It can help us manage our weight better and reduce our risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, stroke, Type 2 diabetes, some cancers and chronic kidney disease.<\/p>\n
This is why foods that are high in saturated fats, added salt, added sugars or alcohol are called\u00a0discretionary choices<\/a>. They also tend to be low in fibre and important nutrients like vitamins and minerals.<\/p>\n
These foods are important for celebrating and social occasions, but should be limited to small amounts and only eaten sometimes.<\/p>\n
How do I work out what foods to eat?<\/h3>\n
The\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0Australian guide to healthy eating<\/a>\u00a0have been reviewed to make sure they are based on most current scientific evidence. This means they can be used to assess popular claims about food and health and to work out what is true.<\/p>\n
It can be tricky when different people are giving conflicting advice about healthy eating. It can be hard to know what to believe.<\/p>\n
The following tips provide a few simple facts that can make it easier to pick the information that is most helpful.<\/p>\n

Discretionary food and drink choices<\/h2>\n
What are discretionary food choices?<\/h2>\n
\n![\"Discretionary](\"https:\/\/www.eatforhealth.gov.au\/sites\/default\/files\/2022-03\/discretionary_agthe_web.jpg\")
<\/div>\n<\/div>\nSome foods and drinks do not fit into the five food groups because they are not necessary for a healthy diet and are too high in saturated fat and\/or added sugars, added salt or alcohol and low in fibre. These foods and drinks can also be too high in kilojoules (energy). Many tend to have low levels of essential nutrients so are often referred to as \u2018energy-dense\u2019 but \u2018nutrient-poor\u2019 foods. The problem is that they can take the place of other more nutritious foods. Also, the higher levels of kilojoules, saturated fat, added sugars, added salt and\/or alcohol that they contain are associated with increased risk of obesity and chronic disease such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some forms of cancer.<\/p>\n
It is easy to have too much and too many of these foods and drinks, and many people do. If you are trying to lose weight, you are unlikely to be able to fit these foods into your lower kilojoule target. However, for people in their normal weight range, these foods and drinks in occasional, small amounts, can add variety and enjoyment to eating. These \u2018optional\u2019 foods and drinks are referred to as \u2018discretionary choices\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u2018Discretionary\u2019 foods and drinks include sweet biscuits, cakes, desserts and pastries; processed meats and fattier\/salty sausages; sweetened condensed milk; ice cream and other ice confections; confectionary and chocolate; savoury pastries and pies; commercial burgers with a high fat and\/or salt content; commercially fried foods; potato chips, crisps and other fatty and\/or salty snack foods including some savoury biscuits; cream, butter and spreads which are high in saturated fats; sugar-sweetened soft drinks and cordials, sports and energy drinks and alcoholic drinks.<\/p>\n
Eating well<\/h2>\n
Australians have access to a wide range of foods, but most of us need to choose foods and drinks more wisely to help protect our health.<\/p>\n
It can be hard to choose nutritious foods and drinks, especially when foods and drinks high in saturated fat, added sugars, added salt and alcohol are readily available and affordable, and the environment in which we live promotes over-consumption.<\/p>\n
Aim for a healthy lifestyle \u2013 make positive choices and take control of your health. Look at all your areas of wellbeing and don\u2019t just focus on your weight. Feel good about yourself for making small changes \u2013 these can lead to big improvements.<\/p>\n
Tips for eating well<\/h2>\n
\n\nThe recommendations in the\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Australian guide to healthy eating\u00a0<\/a>help us choose foods for good health and to reduce our risk of chronic health problems.<\/p>\n
If we are carrying extra weight, the Australian dietary guidelines can also help us lose weight. They steer us towards foods that are high in nutrients but lower in\u00a0kilojoules<\/a>. These choices are nutrient dense but less energy dense and helpful for both achieving and maintaining a healthy weight.<\/p>\n
People wanting to\u00a0lose weight<\/a>\u00a0will also find this information useful for planning meals and snacks. Following the recommended number of serves from the five food groups and avoiding the\u00a0discretionary foods\u00a0<\/a>will result in a gradual but healthy weight loss for most people. However, some people, particularly younger men and people who are taller than average or more active, may need additional\u00a0serves<\/a>\u00a0of the five food groups.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n\n![\"Adult](\"https:\/\/www.eatforhealth.gov.au\/sites\/default\/files\/2022-03\/72582692_8_web_produce_adult_child.jpg\")
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nYou can also check by taking the \u2018Are you eating for health?\u2019 quiz in the\u00a0Dietary guidelines summary booklet<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Eating regularly<\/h2>\n
It\u2019s essential for weight control and especially weight loss, to recognise and act on the feedback your body gives you about when and\u00a0how much you need to eat<\/a>. However it\u2019s also important to aim for a regular eating pattern of meals, or meals and mid meals.<\/p>\n
A planned pattern of eating is more likely to include the recommended number of serves from the five food groups. A spontaneous, unstructured eating pattern is more likely to include too many\u00a0discretionary foods<\/a>\u00a0which means too much saturated fat, added sugars, added salt and kilojoules at the expense of fibre and important nutrients.<\/p>\n
Don’t skip breakfast?<\/h2>\n
Breakfast skippers are more likely to be tempted by unplanned discretionary choices during the morning and large serves at the next meal or snack. Just think of how yummy those large baked muffins look at morning tea if you\u2019ve missed breakfast!<\/p>\n
People who regularly eat a\u00a0breakfast<\/a>\u00a0based on wholegrain cereal or bread, low fat milk or yogurt and maybe some fruit or vegetables are much more likely to be eating well and lose weight than those who skip breakfast.<\/p>\n
\n\nEat with other people not TV<\/h2>\n
We also know that people who eat with others and eat at the dining table, are more likely to eat regularly and eat well than those who eat alone or in front of the TV. Meals with others tend to include more foods from the five food groups. For example, people often report that they can\u2019t be bothered cooking vegetables just for themselves.<\/p>\n
Television watching is associated with eating more discretionary choices like take-away or convenience foods and fewer foods from the five foods. It also makes it much more difficult to recognise and respond to our body\u2019s signals about\u00a0hunger and satiety.<\/a><\/p>\n
Good meal planning and making healthy choices can sometimes be tricky but a few useful tips can make it easier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Healthy eating throughout all of life<\/h2>\n
The\u00a0Australian dietary guidelines<\/em><\/a>\u00a0will help people of all ages make the best food and drink choices for good health and avoid health problems. However, there are also some special messages for people at different stages of life because their bodies are changing.<\/p>\n
Healthy eating for infants, children and teenagers<\/h2>\n
Infants, children and teenagers have special food needs because they are growing and developing. They also need extra energy for playing and being more active.<\/p>\n

Healthy eating when you\u2019re pregnant or breastfeeding<\/h2>\n
When you\u2019re pregnant or breastfeeding, you and your baby need extra nutrients, but not a lot of extra kilojoules. This means it\u2019s very important to choose foods that are nutrient dense but not energy dense.<\/p>\n

Healthy eating when you\u2019re older<\/h2>\n
As we get older we often need fewer kilojoules because we are less active than when we were younger. However, we still need a similar amount of nutrients, sometimes more.<\/p>\n
How to understand food labels<\/h2>\n
Food labels<\/a>\u00a0can be very confusing and tricky to understand. Often we don\u2019t have the time to spend trying to work out what they mean and how to use them.<\/p>\n
However, a few quick tips can make shopping for healthy food a whole lot easier and quicker and can help you lose weight. Knowing what nutrition information to look for, can help you make the best choice for your health and avoid unnecessary saturated fat, added salt, added sugars and kilojoules.<\/p>\n
Labels on most packaged food must meet strict requirements that include information for people with food allergies, food additive listings and food storage instructions. More information about food labelling requirements can be found at\u00a0Food labels – What do they mean? Food standards Australia and New Zealand<\/a>.<\/p>\n
