Why is healthy eating important?

Healthy eating means eating a variety of different types of foods in the right amounts.

Healthy eating is important because it helps to keep your body working properly so you can:

What is the Eatwell Guide?

The Eatwell Guide is a picture that shows us the types and amounts of foods we need to eat to stay healthy.

Your body can't get everything it needs from one food.

That's why you need to eat a variety of foods from the different food groups.

Food groups

The Eatwell Guide has five different food groups.

You can find out more about each food group in this slideshow.

Image gallery Skip image gallery Slide 1 of 5, A green segment of a circle containing a bag of frozen peas, a green and red apple, two strawberries, a tin of tomatoes, a floret of broccoli, two carrots, two bananas, a red onion, a small pile of sweetcorn, a packet of raisins and two oranges, Fruit and vegetables This group includes fruit, such as apples and bananas, and vegetables, such as carrots and broccoli. We need to eat at least five different foods from this group every day.

Why are the food groups different sizes?

The size of each food group shows us how much we need to eat from that group.

The two biggest food groups are the:

Fruit and vegetables group

Potatoes, bread, rice, pasta and other starchy carbohydrates group

We need to have plenty of foods from these two groups to help us stay healthy.

The two medium-sized food groups are the:

Beans, pulses, fish, eggs, meat and other proteins group

Dairy and alternatives group

We need to have some foods from these groups to help us stay healthy.

The smallest food group is the:

We only need a small amount of food from this group to help us stay healthy.

What about other foods?

Your body does not need foods like biscuits, sweets, crisps and chocolate, or sugary drinks, to stay healthy.

They are not good for your health if you eat too much of them and have them too often.

If you eat foods like these, you should only have a small amount and just have them every so often.

How much should we drink?

Everyone needs to have about six to eight drinks every day to keep their body healthy.

Water and milk are healthier drink choices than sugary and fizzy drinks.

Key words

Food groups
Food groups are groups that different foods can be sorted into.

Carbohydrate
Carbohydrate foods give our bodies energy, such as potatoes, bread, rice and pasta.

Dairy foods
Dairy foods are made from milk, such as cheese and yoghurt.

Alternative
An alternative food is similar to another food. For example, an 'alternative' to cow's milk would be a soya drink with added calcium.

Quiz: Food groups

Can you match the food to the correct food group?
