In module 7 of our lessons, it talks about that it is important for us to make good choices for food now while we are teenagers. It says that choices we make now will be with us when we are adults. That is why I want to start eating more healthy foods. In Lesson 3 it talks about healthy and unhealthy foods. Healthy foods have lots of vitamins. The lesson says you should watch how much protein, carbohydrates, and fats each of the foods has. Some foods have lots of fat like french fries or frozen pizzas and too much fat is really bad for us. I eat lots of french fries and frozen pizza so I need to change that and start eating different foods instead. The lesson also talks about sugars and eating too much sugar is also unhealthy. That means I need to drink lots more water or milk instead of soda and eat good snacks instead of candy.
Nutrition is important for our bodies. We need to eat good food if we want to stay healthy and be able to do activities and exercise. I am glad I had this lesson so I could see that I need to start eating foods that are good for me.
