1__________________________________
We all know that
a varied diet with the right combination of protein, carbohydrates and fresh
fruit and vegetables is necessary for good health.
2__________________________________
However, modern
living and a busy lifestyle often mean that many of us don't have time to eat
proper well-balanced meals. We seem to be relying too much on 'fast foods' to
match our fast lives. The problem with these foods though is that they are high
in bad things like fat and calories, but low in the good things like vitamins
and minerals. If you are only eating this sort of 'junk' food, then you've got
a poor diet.
3_________________________________
A poor diet can
lead to lots of health problems. These include allergies and tiredness or much
more serious illnesses such as cancer and heart disease. The additives which
are put in processed foods can also cause illness. Additives are used to add
colour, flavour and long life to foods, but they can be quite harmful if you
eat too many of them.
4_________________________________
If you eat raw
and organic foods, you will be much healthier. Therefore, it makes sense to eat
organically grown fruit and vegetables whenever you can. Try to stop drinking
coffee and stop using sugar, too. Also, it is good idea to take vitamin and
mineral tablets if you know your diet is not as healthy as it should be.
5_________________________________
A good time to think about
healthy eating is when you are shopping, read the list of ingredients on food
packets to find out if there are
a lot of additives so you can avoid them. Foods that contain a lot of additives
include: processed meats, soft drinks, tinned fruit, margarine and biscuits.
6_________________________________
All in all, a
few simple changes to your diet can make a big difference to your health. Eat
the right things and you can eat your way to good health.
