Healthy eating is a lifestyle choice. It's about getting the balance right, because what you eat and drink can have a big influence on your health now and in the future.
A 'balanced diet' means a diet that includes a combination of several different food groups. These food groups include grains and pulses, fresh fruit and veg, meat or meat-free alternatives, dairy products, and fats and oils. Try to eat something from each of these groups every day (except fats, oils and sweets, which should always be eaten sparingly).
Did you know?
The risk of some cancers is lower in people who eat lots of vegetables, fruit and foods high in fibre and maintain a healthy weight.
A healthy, balanced diet can help you to:
Grow and develop properly
Maintain a healthy weight
Keep energy levels high
Keep your bone mass strong and healthy
Keep you smiling by preventing dental decay
Reduce the risk of getting ill
Making food yourself is a great way to learn about food and meal preparation. Have fun making these tasty recipes.

An apple a day keep the Doctor away. That sounds like a good healthy choice. No on a serious note, exercise, eat right, get out and enjoy life and that's what will keep you healthy.

Points are good. Exercise is better. Walking is a good way to get a cardio workout and if you walk a mile a day, you will be on a good start for a workout.
