I think no one knows what healthy food really is because basically anything can be labeled as "healthy" or "natural" but most of it is highly processed. "Organics" which has the emotional connection of being "healthier" is always more expensive, but you can find that same organic food at a farmers market for a much less price.
I don't think it's possible to really eat healthy anymore, unless you are growing it, or slaughtering it yourself, or you have some closer understanding/connection to its source, such as a local farm & butcher, farmers market, etc.
It might be too late for this idea. It might need to be great grandparents by now.
The grandmother I knew was diabetic after a lifetime of soda and Mars bars. The grandfather I knew was almost overweight (before cancer) and had several heart attacks in his lifetime.
It only gets harder and harder to avoid processed junk, and those "deals" where I'm not sure the meat is even meat anymore.

Eat like your grandparents and weight yourself regularly to adjust quantities. Doing that will already put you in the top 5% easily.
It's really not that hard to eat healthy, you just have to avoid 9 out of 10 aisles.
