A healthy diet for men includes:
  • For vitamins, minerals and fiber, eat at least 2 cups of fruits and 2½ cups of vegetables each day.
  • Whole grains. Eat at least half of all grains as whole grains each day. Replace refined grains with whole-grain bread, cereal, pasta, brown rice or oats.
  • At least two to three servings of fish per week.
  • At least 38 grams of fiber a day for younger men; 30 grams of fiber a day for men older than 50.
  • Unsaturated fats such as oils, nuts and oil-based
    salad dressings in place of saturated fats including full-fat dairy foods, butter and high-fat sweets.
  • 4,700 milligrams a day of potassium from fruits, vegetables, fish and milk.
