<span>It is important to eat
a balanced diet so that homeostasis in the body will be constant. Food is a
major factor that contributes to a person’s overall health. When food is
ingested and broken down into smaller particles inside the body, they provide
the nourishment for the different chemical processes of the organ systems. A balanced diet consists of a serving of
carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins and minerals. People that need to
regulate their diet due to certain conditions, seek the help of nutritionists
to determine what is safe and appropriate for their body. </span>
