«Breaking News» Do you get enough fibre and protein? Or too much sugar and salt? Foodoku is here to help

A balanced diet is essentially about eating more of the good and less of the bad. But that’s easier said than done.

Many of us don’t eat enough wholegrains or fruit and veg, so get far too little fibre, for instance, which is crucial for digestive health and the gut bacteria that influence everything from the immune system to mental health.

On average, we get just 18g of the recommended daily 30g of fibre. It’s a similar problem with protein — while most of us get enough, a recent survey suggested a million 19 to 64- year-olds consume only 60 per cent of the 50g minimum we need daily (protein is vital for strong, healthy muscle, which in turn helps maintain your metabolism).

Those of us who do eat enough often won’t spread it evenly over the day — and a study in 2014 in the Journal of Nutrition found that people who ate protein evenly throughout the day had 25 per cent greater muscle repair and renewal than those who ate the bulk of it at dinner. Meanwhile, the things we shouldn’t be eating so much of, such as salt and sugar, are often what we consume in excess, not least because they’re added for flavour to processed foods, and intake can easily add up.

Indeed, while our daily maximum of salt is 6g, the average intake is up to 8g.

We’re also meant to have no more than 30g added sugars (the type in table sugar, honey and fruit juice) a day; the average adult has double that.

To help show you how much you should be eating, and avoid the pitfalls, our sudoku-inspired grids offer eight ways of combining different foods to provide roughly the right amounts of these four nutrients every day.

Like a classic Sudoku, look at each row, column and diagonal for your daily limit...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
