In modern society, people have known it is important to keep healthy and good life habits. In the past, people ate three meals a day at home, and they ate more vegetables and less meat. They were very strong and seldom went to see doctor.
Now life is better, people eat more meat, fish, eggs and other food with more fat. They often go to the restaurant for good meals with their families and friends. But they get easy to be ill, why?
Now, most of us don’t want to eat breakfast at all. They often eat snacks instead of breakfast. It not only is bad for our health, but also affects our study. So we need to develop good eating habits. For example, we should eat many kinds of food every meal. I think eating habits are very important for everyone, especially the growing students.
I think more meat and fish, less exercise are bad for health. Good rest, less meat, more vegetables and enough exercise are good for health. So I exercise every day. My eating habits are pretty good. I eat a lot of vegetables. I eat fruit and drink milk every day. I drink a cup of water 15 minutes before each meal and eat much vegetables and fruit. Of course, I love junk food, too, and I eat it once a week. And I sleep nine hours every day.

Some foods, like fruits, are naturally sweet. Other foods and drinks are sweet because sugar is added to them. Sugar-sweetened foods and drinks have lots of extra calories (卡路里) but no added nutrients (营养物) .
Some of the most common sources (来源) of added sugars include
●sugar-sweetened drinks, especially sodas, energy drinks, coffee and tea, and juices with added sugars
●desserts like ice cream, sweet snacks, and candy
Less than 10% of your daily calories should come from added sugars. For example, if you take in 2,000 calories a day, fewer than 200 of those calories should come from added sugars. One can of soda often has 150 calories from sugar!
Tips for cutting down added sugars include
●reaching for an apple, banana, grapes, or other fruit instead of a candy.
●limiting or not adding any sugar to foods and drinks.
●avoiding or cutting down flavored (风味) coffees, teas, sodas, milkshakes, and other drinks sweetened with sugar, which are sold in many coffee shops and fast-food restaurants.
●choosing foods and drinks low in added sugars. You can check the amount (量) of added sugars in packaged foods by reading the Nutrition Facts label(营养成分表) (see example in Picture 1).

There are some examples about the horsemeat matter. In January, 2013, in a number of UK supermarkets, frozen(冰冻的) hamburgers were found to have a little horsemeat in them. Some frozen beef products made by food company FINDUS were found to contain horsemeat. All of the beef products made by this company have been removed from sale.
The government said that there’s nothing to suggest any health risk from the products. Food minister David Heath said people should not throw away frozen meat products and carry on eating meat. The government will tell people not to eat meat if the meat is not safe.
Food safety has been an important matter all over the world. More and more countries plan to take some useful measures to ensure the safety of food.

There have always been a lot of commonly believed but wrong ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others believe that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more:
I’ll never lose weight—I come from a fat family
Wrong! It is true that fatness runs in families and genes (基因) might play a role in it. However, the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercise too little.
I am fat because I burn calories (热量) slowly
Wrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism (新陈代谢). If fact, although fat people burn more calories that thin people, they fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary on diet can help you find out how many calories you take in every day.
Exercise is boring
Wrong! Anything will become boring if you do it again and again. The key is to develop a balanced (平衡的) program of different kinds that’s fun as well as helpful. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, choose a different road. If you do Yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challenge.
No pain, no gain
Wrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Yes, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may feel a little uncomfortable as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body getting used to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the pains should be gone very quickly. If you don’t, rest and look for medical advice.
