Fresh vegetables make up the biggest part of a healthy dietHere are a couple of presentations by Mark Bittman and Michael Pollan on how they recommend eating and why. I really like their approach, which is to consume mainly plants with only a limited amount of animal derived foods. Check out the videos and see if it's an approach that could work for you.

Both authors have come to very similar conclusions on how to eat in a way that is healthy for you and good for the environment. It's a very good way to have westerns eat better and in a more sustainable way. Given the increasing health problems linked to bad diet, it's important that voices such as Mark's and Michael's are heard, understood and acted upon widely.
