Michael Pollan put it simply- “Eat. Not to much. Mostly plants.”

And really, that works. Keep the calorie intake reasonable compared to your activity level so you maintain a healthy weight, then make sure you’re mostly chewing on plants with some other meat or whatever in the mix if you want. Avoid additions- added sugar being the main culprit.

You’ll be fine with that unless something particularly odd’s happening with your biology.
