Every human body needs food. People eat to support it in good condition. Food is a basic important need for normal growth, development and energy. Food shortage leads to exhaustion of organism together with mental problems such as depression and apathy.

Pay attention! Food can be healthy and unhealthy.

Healthy food gives us lots of minerals and vitamins which are good for our health. They help us to grow, make our teeth and bones strong and give us energy. Some of these vitamins are good for our eyes and skin. Healthy food plays a vital role in the promotion of health and disease prevention.

Unhealthy food is dangerous for our health. It can bring us lots of serious problems such as obesity, heart disease, cancer and so on. Unhealthy food is less nutritious and contains a high amount of calories, fat and sugar. This type of food can also be the cause of skin problems.
