Eating well is fundamental to good health and well-being. Healthy eating helps us to maintain a healthy weight and reduces our risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and some cancers.
- Food gives you energy to do things like run, walk, talk, or really do anything.
- All foods have valuable things like proteins, calories, which are needed for our body systems to function. It sort of goes along with my first point.
- Eating foods give us happiness. When we eat, out body releases serotonin, which makes us calm and/or happy.
