Maximum benefits derived from eating a wide variety of foods. But fruits and vegetables are usually the most healthiest.

Go with a plant based approach. Chronic diseases follow the flesh eaters. See the movie, "Forks Over Knives", still the #1 documentay sold on Amazon, for almost 3 years now.

Natural food. Vegetables and fruits and also don't forget to use all the great herbs and spices. People use salt as a shortcut for flavor instead of using the myriad of great herbs and spices for flavor and health benefits.

Grass fed beef and free range chicken are both great sources of lean protein.

I think there is no healthy or sick food and is all about moderation, balanced meals is the secret as well as the variety of ingredients

there's really no such thing as healthy food, it's about eating whatever foods fit your daily macro requirements (ie protein, carbs & fat).

I know some competitive bodybuilders who need to take in 600g+ of carbs per day just to maintain their weight. You think they get all that from brown rice, potatoes & oats? No, they include things like honey & low fat ice cream to hit those numbers.
