Reading: Healthy Eating

Food keeps us healthy and help us grow. Food provides us with energy to be able
to function throughout the day. By eating a balanced diet, your body obtains the
fuel and nutrients it needs to function properly. Your body needs minerals to make
hormones, build bones and regulate your heartbeat. Water flushes out toxins,
transports nutrients to cells and performs other vital bodily processes.
Carbohydrates Bread, rice and potatoes are examples of carbohydrate rich foods.
These foods give us plenty of energy. You should try and eat a lot of carbohydrates
each day. As well as energy, carbohydrates provide us with fibre, iron, B vitamins
and calcium. Fruit and Vegetables Fruit and vegetables provide us with vitamins
and minerals essential for keeping us healthy as well as fibre which is important for
digestion. A diet high in fibre can also reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke and
some cancers. Try to eat at least five portions of fruit and vegetables a day.
Remember that potatoes do not count as a portion of vegetables.
Meat, Fish, Eggs and Beans

These foods are a good source of protein, vitamins and minerals in your diet. These foods
help the body to grow and repair itself and keep hair, skin, muscles and nails strong. We
should eat some of these foods a day.
Foods High in Fats and Sugar
These foods provide the body with energy, warmth and insulation around vital organs.
Too much fat in your diet can raise cholesterol, which increases the risk of heart disease. A
small amount of fat is part of a healthy, balanced diet. Fat is a source of essential fatty
acids such as omega-3 because the body can’t make them itself. Fat helps the body absorb
vitamins A, D and E. To be healthy, nutritious food is needed to provide energy for the
body. A variety of food is needed in the diet because different foods contain different
substances that are needed to keep you healthy.
