The most important thing for a healthy diet is eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

Carbohydrates are important for energy, but they should come from "complex" carb sources like whole grains, not "simple carbs" like white bread or sweets. Complex carbs have more fiber and give you more lasting energy, and are less likely to cause weight gain and Diabetes.

For protein, it is a good idea to eat lean protein, or protein that doesn't have a lot of fat. For example: beans, soy, low fat or non fat dairy, fish, or chicken/turkey. Red meat (beef, pork) and processed meat (deli meat, bacon, etc) should be limited, as should fried foods.

It's also a good idea to avoid processed foods and go for fresh food instead because fresh foods have less sodium.
