Check if you eat healthy

We developed an inter-active query by lining up the daily nourishment quantities, necessary for a healthy and moderately active person of 12 years old or older.

The questionnaire gives feedback to four target groups:

1. those who eat meat;
2. vegetarians (who refrain from eating meat and fish, but do take dairy produce);
3. vegans (who do not make use of a sole animal product);
4. those who bring variation in their menu and take enough of the recommended nutrients.

The last group (that eats a varied menu) is to be seen as the subset of consumers who stick to the minimum recommendations.

By filling in this test you can instantly make sure whether or not with your food articles (f.e. legumes) you get down enough nutrients (f.e. carbohydrates) every day.

However, when your outcome differs we cannot determine through this test whether you sufficiently compensate a possible lack.

In that case you should consult a dietician.

Start of the questionnaire

We show you the recommended daily quantities of food. If, on an average, your daily consumption meets these quantities, then tick the boxes corresponding with your choices.

It goes for each of the four groups that when you score 100% under "varied menu", you get down sufficient nutrients.

As for lower scores, 100% certainty can not be given.

You can always ask your physician to have your blood examined on containing sufficient nutrients. Of course it is no calamity when you consider yourself to be a vegetarian, but due to not being a hundred percent consistent you do not score the full 100%: what matters is that you reach 100% for "a menu that shows variety".

Thanks for completing this questionnaire.
