Precipitation on Cape Cod and the islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket is the lowest in the New England region, averaging slightly less than 40 inches (100 cm) a year (most parts of New England average 42 to 46 inches (110 to 120 cm)).
A moderate diet is like a balanced diet. Not extreme in any way: not extremely low fat, not extremely low carb, not extremely high sugar; everything is very moderate. However 'moderate' tends to be a VERY subjective term, because what is moderate for one person may not be moderate for another. A varied diet simply means you are not eating the same foods every day; the foods that you eat vary, which prevents you from becoming deficient in any nutrient.
Eating a balanced diet means primarily choosing minimally processed and natural foods. In addition, drinking plenty of water and choosing plant-based or lean protein (fish, low-fat dairy, lean meats) is part of a balanced diet. A plant-based diet doesn't have to be 100% plants or vegan, but it can be if you wish. The goal is for a majority of the foods you are eating to come from plants.
