1 . As a student, you often have a lot of stress（压力）. Having a healthy diet can always help you feel better. Here are my tips for you.
Eat a good breakfast. Studies show that not having breakfast is bad for your study. When there isn’t time for you to sit down and enjoy your morning meal, you can have an egg, some fruit and some juice on your way.
Keep healthy snacks on hand. This way, if you are hungry on a late night or between meals, you can enjoy them at any time.
Eat lots of foods rich in calcium（钙）. Students in their young age need to build up their bodies with much calcium. If you don’t like milk, try some low-fat yogurt, cheese and green vegetables in your diet.
Limit（限制）your sugar intake. Sugar gives calories（卡路里）to your body. But too much is bad for your teeth. So put a little sugar in your coffee, tea, or milk every day.
Drink lots of water. Your body needs at least eight glasses of water a day. And if you often do sports, you may need more. To remind（提醒）yourself, carry a water bottle along to the classroom and keep it close to you during a late study night.
There are so many benefits（益处）of having a healthy habit and all you have to do is to start!

2 . Where does your meat come from? Maybe a cow, pig or chicken. Did you know that we can make “meat” out of plants as well?
Plant-based meat is not real meat, but looks and tastes like the real thing. It’s made out of plants like potatoes and peas. It’s getting more popular around the world these days. In the US, plant-based meat company Beyond Meat will sell its products (产品) in 5,000 more stores by the end of September. In June, KFC started to sell plant-based burgers and chicken nuggets in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Beijing. At the same time, Pizza Hut in China has also added plant-based meat to its menu.
Scientists say this food is better for the environment. Producing meat makes too many greenhouse gases (温室气体). If everyone in the world stopped eating meat, it would reduce greenhouse gas emissions (排放) by two-thirds, according to Plant Proteins.
Eating plant-based food is also healthier. Many people get heart disease (心脏病) because they eat too much meat. Would you like to try plant-based meat?

3 . In our busy society where food is readily available (可得到的) from delivery (递送) services and fast food restaurants, almost one in three American adults is now considered to be obese. Childhood obesity is also at an all-time high.
Obesity means very overweight. If you are obese, you have too much body-fat. Doctors define(定义) obesity as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, and overweight as having a BMI of 25 to 30.
If you eat more food than your body can use, this will make you put on weight. Food that your body does not need as energy will be stored as fat by your body.
The following are the major factors that increase the risk of obesity.
What you eat plays a major role in weight gain. Eating a lot of fattening foods such as hamburgers, sweet drinks, ice creams and other sweet and fatty foods can increase the risk of becoming obese.
If you do not do enough exercise, you will put on weight as the food you eat is not being used to make energy for physical activities.
The chances of you being obese are greater if your parents are obese.
There are many psychological (心理的) factors that cause people to eat too much.
People who are stressed, unhappy or bored will often eat to make themselves feel better. This is known as comfort eating.
Age is another factor, as you tend to be less active when you get older. The amount of muscle in your body usually decreases (下降) as you get older and this causes the metabolism (新陈代谢) to slow down. As a result of these changes, you need to eat less, and if you do not eat less as you grow older, you will put on weight.
Obesity can cause many health disorders such as high blood pressure, diabetes (糖尿病), heart problems, cancer and many other serious medical conditions.

Twenty percent of these teenagers are overweight and twenty-five percent of them are at risk of becoming overweight, according to the National Institutes of Health. To alleviate (缓解) the problem, scientists have offered the following advice.

Keep a positive outlook and spend 30 minutes a day doing something you like such as walking on the beach or in a park, reading a good book, visiting friends, listening to relaxing music, and watching a funny movie. And a recent study by Mind, a mental health charity, discovered that overweight students found group therapies was the most useful. |
| Move More Make it a daily challenge to find ways to move your body. There are many things you can do to move your arms and legs. Climb stairs instead of taking the elevator (电梯). Walk your dog; run with your friends. It doesn’t have to be an hour in the gym or a 45-minute dance lesson. But that’s great when you’re up to it. At the same time, move more. |
| Improve On Sleep Researchers have long known that sleep deprivation (缺少) can cause weight gain and teenagers who need a lie-on weekends to make up for lack of sleep in the week are at greater risk of overweight. Scientists suggest teenagers go to bed at the same time before midnight and get up at the same time every day. Your body likes routine (常规) for a good night’s sleep. |

6 . Daniel has got used to his life. Now he tries to live more healthily.
Today, people want to do sports and exercise to keep healthy. But some of them have some wrong ideas about it.
“A plate of chicken is a good meal before games because it has much energy.”
The best meal before games should have carbohydrates（碳水化合物）. Food like potatoes, bread, bananas are rich in it, but chicken and meat are not.
“ 1 ”
No. Morning is a good time to exercise, but it may not be good for you. If an afternoon or an evening is better for you, and you enjoy the feeling of getting healthy, then you can exercise at that time. So choose any time to exercise!
“If you drink water when you exercise, you’ll feel tired.”
You must have some water when you exercise. And after exercising, you also need to have some water. If you don’t drink any water, then you may feel tired.
“Exercising every day is very important.”

7 . Overweight (超重) is one of the biggest health problems now. Being overweight affects (影响) more than how you look. Too much fat can kill you. What’ s worse, overweight children turn into overweight adults (成人) . If you’ re obese now, you will probably grow into an obese adult. But here’ s good news. You can fight overweight.
Change your eating habits
You are what you eat. Kids like snacks. Have you listed any healthy snacks? One study of eating habits shows that soft drinks are the first in the snack list. Next, kids choose salty snacks, like chips. What’ s more, the list is full of junk food from No. 3 to No. 11. Finally, No. 12, kids pick a healthy snack — fruit. So, think about your snack choice (选择) again.

8 . If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and some of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat, oil, salt, and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”.
But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers have bad eating habits. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey at one school, scientists found that over two-thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.
