Healthy Eating Choices

Jasmine Blain Eating healthy is very important in today's society! According to Candace brown, "healthy eating is indispensable to developing and maintaining overall health."Eating healthy is very important because the body needs proteins, carbohydrates, fatty acids, and water. And by eating healthy foods, you will get all of these nutrients and even more.

Eating healthy has become a major problem over the world. Especially in high school, all these vending machines with unhealthy snacks is just bad for the bad. Yes, we do need some fats in our body, but we don't need them all the time. Its getting really bad because most of the students in high school barely work out, so if they keep eating all this junk food and not working out, then it could lead to serious problems; for example obesity, heart disease, and many other problems that we don't want children to have to face at such a young age. To sole this problem in children, we should take vending machines away, or put a little more healthy items in the vending machine. Another solution would be to take away the soda machines, or at least put more juices in them or diet sodas.

There are many ways to get over your bad habit of eating unhealthy food. If you are a binge eater, or have trouble eating out in public, then you should "eat lightly before you got out to lessen your hunger. And don't restrict yourself too much during the week so that the weekend becomes less of a threat" requested by Jacob Franek. Or even if you are a speed eater because of stress, then you should just simply try and slow down, and try and avoid finger eating foods. You should look at this website www.askmen.com . Even though it the title of the website say men, it it for various people.

Eating healthy can provide so much for your body. It will also definitely help you out in the long run, meaning if your start exercising and eating healthy now, then when you are older you will have less chances of having problems wit your body. To make sure your eating right you can ask a nutrient coach, or just really anybody who knows what they are talking about. Remember, it is bad to eat junk food, just make sure your not eating it all the time. Also make sure your diet is being balanced, for example make sure meats, vegetables and fruits, grains, and dairy are somewhere in your meals throughout the day.
