Eating Well

 

Script :

Food is one of the basic necessities of life. Everybody needs food whether they live in an arid desert or a snow-covered forest.

Fastfood, Spicy noodles, and fritters. 

These foods are present in the lives of almost everyone every day. But eating such food does not reflect eating well. Why we should eat well and does it matter?

Do you know that eating well is not only good for our physical best but good for our mental health too?

A healthy, well-balanced diet can help us think clearly and feel more alert. It can also improve concentration and attention span.

Conversely, an inadequate diet can lead to fatigue, impaired decision-making, and can slow down reaction time. In fact, a poor diet can actually aggravate, and may even lead to, stress and depression.

According to the American Dietetic Association, people tend to either eat too much or too little when depressed or under stress. 

Here are tips for healthy eating:

- Steer clear of processed snack foods, such as potato chips. Pass up sugar-filled snacks, such as candy and soft drinks.

- Have a healthy snack when hunger strikes, such as fruit and nuts

- Think about where and when you eat. Don’t eat in front of the television, which can be distracting and cause you to overeat. Instead, find a place to sit, relax and really notice what you’re eating. Chew slowly. Savor the taste and texture.

So what are you waiting for? Let's start getting used to eating well
