Vocabulary: eating well

Feeding oneself and others can be quite a job! 

To reduce the risks of diseases, we should consume healthy food, and educate our childtren

 to do so too. Sugar (confectionary, soft drinks and sodas), fat and alcohol are enemies to people's health. They should be avoided.

Unfortunately, most foods with the "best" tastes are not necessarily the healthiest ones and most people have to fight all their lives to keep their dietary balance!

Every meal should be 'sensible" (or balanced)...

We should always eat proteins, carbohydrates (starchy food), a limited quantity of fat, 

vegetables (raw or cooked to repletion) a dairy product and a fruit... 

- the food value in something

- the staple diet

- to eat sensibly

- A low/ high calorie diet

                            For some people, STEVIA is better than sugar... 

- To have an attack of indigestion

- To starve to death/ to be starving

- To die of starvation

- A vitamin deficiency

In all cases, QUANTITY is important too. Obviously, we shouldn't forget to EXERCISE on a regular basis too... It can even be fun !

I hope you've liked this lesson and will use it well!  Go for the test with enthusiasm...
