Today our knowledge of food and what it does for our bodies is far
more advanced than that of the old times. Now we know about vitamins and how
each kind of vitamin helps in the growth of a particular part of our body. There
are on the market all kinds of vitamins which one can take to make up for one’s
lack of certain important things that are needed for good health. Of course, if
we eat well and properly, the food we eat will take care of our body and so
there is no need to take any kinds of vitamins unless our doctor tells us that
our bodies are short of something that can be supplied by them.
Generally speaking, everything we eat does some good to our body, but if we eat
too much of one kind of food and pay too little attention to others, we may have
too much of one kind and not enough of others. Then we may be in
trouble. We are often told that we must eat some meat at each meal in
order to get the necessary proteins. That is only partly true, for proteins are
not found only in meat. We can also get them from some vegetables.
The best advice about what to eat is that we should eat all kinds of food
but never too much for any. Eat Healthy Our knowledge of
