A balanced diet will keep you healthy. The food you eat must provide enough energy you need for every day.

· Carbohydrates --> release energy (E.G. bread, pasta, rice)

· Fats --> keep warm and release energy (E.G. in meats and cheese)

· Protein --> growth, cell repair and replacement (E.G. meat, fish, eggs, nuts)

· Fibre --> improve digestion (E.G. wheat)

· Vitamins and minerals --> keep skin, bones and blood healthy. (E.G. fruit, vegetables, milk)
