Ex.1 Before you read the text, talk about the question.
1 What do you know about the nutritive value of foods?
| Food gives us energy, makes us grow and helps to stay healthy.
We need to eat
| something from all the food groups every day. Fruit and vegetables, cereals and grains, fats and sugar, meat and protein and dairy.
| Fruit and vegetables give us lots of vitamins and minerals and help us grow and
| 
| stay healthy. We should eat five portions of fruit and vegetables every day. A portion is one piece of fruit, a serving (блюдо) of vegetables or a glass of juice.
| Cereals and grains are things like bread, rice, potatoes and noodles. These foods give us the
| energy we need. Half of what we eat every day should come from this group.
| Fats and sugars are things like oils, biscuits, sweets, chocolate and ice cream. These foods give
| 
| us energy and are important for our nervous system. But too much of this food can make you fat and can be bad for your teeth.
|
| 
| Meats and proteins are foods like chicken, fish, duck, eggs, nuts, beans and tofu. These foods give us
| important minerals and help us to build and repair our bodies. We need to eat a little of this food every day (about 10% of our food).
| Dairy foods are things like milk, yoghurt and cheese
These foods give us calcium, which
| 
| helps to make our teeth and bones strong. You should eat some of these foods every day, but you can also get calcium from spinach and dried fruit.
