4 Food Pyramid - Helps us to eat Healthy

5 IMPORTANCE OF HEALTHY EATING Eating healthy is important for having good health, for well- being and also maintaining a proper body weight. It is important for the proper formation of bones, teeth, muscle and a healthy heart. Diet can affect growth and development. Eating different kinds of foods (balanced food) gives the body what it needs. A variety of food in our diet can help avoid deficiency diseases. It gives greater immunity (resistance against disease).

6 What is meant by calorie? A calorie is a unit of measurement but it doesn't measure weight or length. A calorie is a unit of energy. For example: If something contains 100 calories, means how much energy our body could get from eating or drinking it. Calories aren't bad. Our body needs calories for energy. But eating too many calories and not burning enough of them off through activity can lead to weight gain.

7 What is meant by calorie? Most foods and drinks contain calories. Foods like lettuce, contain few calories, while peanuts contain a lot of calories. To find out how many calories are in a food we can look at the nutrition facts label. The label also will describe the components of the food — how many grams of carbohydrate, proteins, and fat it contains.
