Listen to the interview with dr. Mihaela Bilic about the Healthy plate and express your opinion. How is this different/similar to what you / young people do/your family does?
As far as I'm concerned, I proceed approximately as recommended by the nutritionist. Compared to the habits of my group of friends, they consume carbohydrates in large quantities and sweets are present daily eaten as a snack .
To have a healthy life from a nutritional point of view ,we must fallow certain principles recommended by nutritionists. For exemple, meals must be balanced , not to much at too little ,and include both vegetables ,proteine and carbohydrates.
I agree with what Mrs. Bilic says. I think we should always keep half a plate of vegetables. A quarter with protein and the other quarter with carbohydrates. I personally prefer half a plate of vegetables and the other half with protein.
I think the plate is balanced. Personally, this is how I usually eat, but I have noticed both in myself and in the people around me that they often eat more potatoes than green vegetables and cheese/meat for protein. The meat is mostly fried, and the carbohydrates are usually simple.
In her interview, Dr. Mihaela Bilic highlights the importance of a balanced diet using the concept of the “Healthy Plate”. This concept recommends dividing your plate into appropriate portions: half should be vegetables, one quarter protein, and one quarter carbohydrates. It’s a simple but effective way to make sure meals are nutritious and help maintain a healthy weight.
My opinion: I believe Dr. Bilic’s approach is both practical and valuable, especially in today’s fast-paced lifestyle. In my own family, we try to follow similar principles—each meal usually includes a source of lean protein (like chicken or fish), complex carbs (such as brown rice or quinoa), and lots of vegetables. However, I admit we don’t always manage to eat like this, especially during busy periods or when we’re stressed.
Differences and similarities: Compared to Dr. Bilic’s model, I think many young people today are more aware of what healthy eating looks like, but it’s often hard to be consistent. A lot of my friends, for example, know the benefits of balanced meals, but still rely on fast food or processed snacks when they’re in a rush or too tired to cook.
Another point Dr. Bilic makes is about snacking out of boredom or stress, which is very common. I’ve noticed this in myself and others too—many people eat not because they’re hungry, but because it’s comforting or a way to take a break.
Overall, I find her advice realistic and useful. Even if we can’t always stick to the “perfect plate,” being more mindful of what we eat is a great step toward better health.
