WHAT IS HEALTH?

SECTION 1

Personally, my definition of health is your body and mind being happy and able to function properly.

The textbook's definition of health is:
The well-being of your body, your mind and your relationships with other people.

According to Google the definition of health is:
"The state of being free from illness or injury."

SECTION 2

What does it mean to eat healthy?
To eat healthy means to eat good foods from the main food groups and to drink lots of water. Fruit, vegetables & protein are always a good choice.

I eat very healthy because I'm a focused athlete so a healthy diet is important to have a strong body.

EXAMPLES OF THE FOODS I EAT

• Fruit, homemade strawberry smoothies are my favroite.
• Vegetables, my favorite vegetable are green beans.
• Chicken, it's a great source of protein.
• Pasta, especially spaghetti it's full of carbs.
• Salad, caesar, greek or italian are my favorite.

SECTION 3

Exercise is an important part of health because if you are physically fit you will have a healthier body.

Yes, I exercise because I play sports. I play hockey, softball and volleyball. Hockey is my favorite.

If I had a friend who doesn't exercise I would get them to start by helping them find a sport that they enjoy. What's more fun than doing something you love AND getting physically fit.

SECTION 4

Topics I think we will be covering are...
-How to stay healthy, not sick
-How drugs and alcohol are bad for you
-How to eat healthier.

A topic I hope we cover is what foods are good for you and what foods are not.
