balancing diet and physical exercise.
The learning objective for this subject is to get the students describe the Food and Exercise pyramids, explain the importance of sanitary and safe handling of foods, and analyze food labels in order to determine nutritional content.

This website is great for students to understand meal portions.
ChooseMyPlate.gov provides useful information to individuals, health professionals, nutrition educators, and the food industry to help customers build healthier diets with possessions and tools for dietary assessment, nutrition education.

• You want to eat less of some foods and more of others
The food guidelines emphasize eating more foods from plants, such as vegetables and beans, whole grains, and nuts

9. What is a diet ?
A good diet is a dietary lifestyle that upholds good health.
A good diet must consist of several food groups because one single group cannot offer everything a human needs for good health.
Diet is frequently referred to as some dietary regimen for losing weight.
A good diet means consuming from all the different good groups in the right quantities.
We should aim for an energy balance and a healthy bodyweight.
There are five main food groups - whole grains, fruit and vegetables, protein, diary, and fat & sugar.

10. How to eat healthier
We should maximum our energy consumption from total fats. We should also target for more unsaturated fats and less saturated fats
Should avoid directly deadly and poisonous substances.
As well as making sure our salt is iodized, we should also limit our intake of salt/sodium.
We should maximum our energy consumption from total fats. We should as well aim for more unsaturated fats and less saturated fats.

12.
Fast foods affect children and youth often worse than adults. This is because most of (Obesity).
the fast foods are targeted towards children and there is a sustained pattern of eating fast foods and eating out (Obesity).
Studies have shown that over the past four decades, consumption of food eaten away from home has also risen alarmingly (Obesity).
Children with a sustained excess energy imbalance intake of approximately 2% result in the development of obesity over time (Obesity).
A 2% imbalance could mean an excess of only about 30 kilocalories per day. This corresponds to two-thirds of a chocolate cookie, fewer than two French fries or one-fourth of a can of soda (Obesity).
Fast foods fall into this category of food. Fast foods are typically:-
• high in calories
• high in fat
• high in saturated and trans fat
• high in sugar
• high in simple carbohydrates
• high in sodium (salt (Obesity)
