All the diets must consist of six tastes as macronutrients like protein, carbohydrates and a little fat. Each food contains a unique taste in itself that effects differently on metabolism, digestion and tissue formation.
A balanced diet consists of all the three most essential nutrients as carbohydrates, proteins and a little fat. A healthy diet consumed by a normal human being consists of 55-60 percent carbohydrates, 20-25 percent protein and 15-20 percent fat. Our body is capable in absorbing 21000 calories at a time. The remaining amount of calories will be converted into fat, which in turn diverted into energy.
