A) Reading

Health and Fitness

There are 5 food groups. Each food group is a type of food
that gives you certain kinds of nutrients that you need to be
.healthy and for your body to grow

The Breads, Cereals, & Starches Group is the first group. You
probably eat the most of this group during a day. It includes
things like potatoes, breads, rice, noodles, and wheat products.
!These foods give us energy to work, play, and learn all day

The Fruits & Vegetables Group is the second group. Sometimes

people separate these into two groups, but they’re really very
similar. You should eat a lot of these every day. Don't just eat
the sweet fruits, either. You should eat as many veggies as you
do fruits. Eat your onions, bananas, pears, carrots and peas!
There are so many others to choose from, and they are loaded
with vitamins. Different colors of fruits and veggies have
.different nutrients, so try different colors during the day

The next group is the Dairy Group. It is made up of milk,

cheese, yogurt, cream, and other delicious proteins. These have
lots of calcium and protein to help you grow. They make your
.muscles and bones strong

The Meat, Poultry, Fish, and Proteins Group include not just
the meats, but also things like nuts, beans, and eggs. These
.things have a lot of minerals and more protein to help us grow
The final group is the Fats and Sugars Group. These are
sweets and treats that we love to eat, but really shouldn’t eat
too much of. They may taste good, but they don’t have very
.much nutrition for us

It is important to eat the right amount of foods from all of

the food groups. Most of your food should come from the
Bread, Cereal and Starches Group and the Fruits and
Vegetables Group. Don’t just eat on kind of food, and definitely
!don’t eat too many treats
