Here is a list of some foods, which are good for us:
Cereal foods. These are a good source of starch and protein as well as a good source of vitamins and minerals. Cereals include: wheat, rice, oats, barley, maize and rye. Bread is the main product made from wheat. Breakfast cereals are made from a variety of different cereals. Starchy vegetables. These contain a lot of starch. Examples are potatoes and sweet potatoes. Fruit and vegetables. Fruit and vegetables are important for good health because of the dietary fibre and vitamins they contain. It is important to eat at least three portions of vegetables or fruit a day. Pulses (beans) and nuts. These are a good source of protein.
Here is a list of some foods which are bad for us:
Sugar, sugary foods and drink. These foods provide very little in the way of useful nutrients. They have a damaging effect on teeth and should only form a small part of our diet. Examples are: cans of fizzy drinks, sweets and sweet cakes. Fats. Although we do need some types of fat in our diet we do not need very much. Fat is found in chocolate, butter, cream, cakes, cheese, some meat (often in beef burgers and sausages). More and more teenagers (and indeed whole families) are eating fast food or convenience food rather than food cooked from fresh ingredients.
