For any diet to work, what do you think is necessary? Dedication? Or Healthy foods? Or management? Well, all these are external factors that are required but there are some things in the diet that are crucial for its effectiveness. We can call it internal factors of diet affecting its efficiency. Let's see which are they

1. Quality: quality of the food you are consuming should always score over quantity. Now quality means, the way it was produced or made and mainly the nutrients present in it. While buying food one should check its quality from both angles. The effect of quality food, even if consumed in small quantity is going to be always greater on your health.

2. Suitability: It's a common picture to find people who include foods in their diet because they read it's healthy or a doctor told someone they knew to have it in their diet or a friend of theirs found it effective. Okay, let's say after all this, that the said food is healthy but is it suitable to your body is still unknown. People blindly include foods in their diet without consulting an expert. When someone says, that this food is healthy, it is a generalised statement considering the nutrients present in it but whether that food will suit you or prove effective for you is based on your body, and to know that you need a thorough assessment by a nutrition expert.
 

3. Timing: A most neglected and vital part of any diet is the timing of the foods. Again it has to be personalized. The same food, eaten at different times of the day has a different effect on your body. So randomly having any food, at any time is not going to give you the full benefit of it. A diet planned by a nutrition expert not only includes healthy foods but also times it well to give your body full benefit of foods, and providing it at a time when your body needs it and thus absorbs it well.
 

4. Availability: Now you read in a what's app message that some exotic vegetable is super effective for B.P so you start the great search for it in the market but alas you manage to get just a piece of it for bomb of a price. Now after all this, do you think it will keep your B.P normal? Hence before deciding to include any foods in your diet first check if they are easily available, what's its season and whether are they really worth the effort. Better, you go and get a plan from Nutritionists who know the foods well , also their availability and alternatives.
 
5. Quantity: This is the last thing, yet in the top 5 things you should take care of. Now just because, you know that this food is healthy , overeating it is not good. There is a limit to everything. E.g. Vegetables are good. That doesn't mean you should have bowls of salads in each meal. Then it crosses the healthy limit and acts as a toxin. This applies to all the foods. So find the balance in everything.
