    Healthy Food:
    Fruits and
    Vegetables
    Fruits and vegetables are essential for a healthy diet. They are rich in
    vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants. These nutrients help
    strengthen the immune system, prevent chronic diseases and control
    weight. Some of them are:

    -Apples, pears, watermelons, bananas, etc.

    -Carrot, broccoli, spinach, and tomato, etc.


    Healthy Food:
    Whole Grains
    Whole grains are an excellent source of fiber, vitamins and minerals.
    They are essential for maintaining healthy digestion, weight
    management and providing sustainable energy.

    Some examples of whole grains include brown rice, quinoa, oats,


    barley, and whole wheat. Opt for these grains instead of their refined
    versions to enjoy all their benefits.
    Healthy Food: Lean
    Proteins
    Lean proteins are essential for health. They are important for muscle
    growth and development, the production of enzymes and hormones,
    and the maintenance of the immune system.

    Some examples of lean proteins include chicken, fish, turkey, beans,


    lentils, and tofu. When choosing protein, opt for lean options to
    minimize saturated fat intake.
    Junk Food:
    Processed Foods
    Processed foods are those that have been modified from their natural
    state through processes such as packaging, pasteurization, freezing, or
    the addition of artificial ingredients. These foods are often high in trans
    fats, sugar, salt, and preservatives, making them an unhealthy option.

    Examples: French fries, cookies, soft drinks, sausages, and sugary


    cereals
    Junk Food: Fast
    Food
    Fast food is a popular choice, but it is high in fat, salt and sugar.
    Hamburgers, pizzas and fries contain few vitamins and minerals.

    Consuming it frequently increases the risk of diseases such as obesity,


    diabetes and heart disease.

    Examples: Burgers, pizzas, tacos, hot dogs and chicken nuggets.


    Junk Food: Sugary
    Drinks
    Sugary drinks such as soda, processed fruit juices, and energy drinks
    are a major source of added sugar.

    Excessive consumption of added sugar is linked to an increased risk of


    obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and tooth decay.

    Examples: Soft drinks, packaged fruit juices, energy drinks, bottled


    teas, and milkshakes.
