"About Healthy Eating"

What is Healthy Eating?

Healthy eating is about balancing your meals with foods that help your body. It means eating stuff like fruits, veggies, grains, proteins, and healthy fats. This helps you stay strong, feel good, and have energy for everything you want to do.

What are some benefits of eating healthy?

Eating healthy makes your body stronger and keeps you from getting sick with things like heart disease or diabetes. It also boosts your mood, gives you more energy, and helps you stay at a healthy weight. It’s like a win-win for your whole body!

What does the Healthy Eating plate look like?

The Healthy Eating Plate splits into four parts: fruits, veggies, whole grains, and proteins. Veggies and fruits are full of vitamins, grains give you energy, and proteins help build muscles. Each part works together to keep your body running smoothly.

What will happen if you don’t eat healthy, and why is it important?

Skipping healthy foods can make you feel tired, gain too much weight, or even get sick with heart problems or diabetes. Eating right helps your brain and body work better so you can enjoy life more.

Why do we need micro and macronutrients?

Macronutrients, like carbs, proteins, and fats, give you energy and keep you full. Micronutrients, like vitamins and minerals, are tiny but super important for things like growing bones, fighting sickness, and keeping your body balanced.
