Module Number: 11 Healthier eating and drinking
What is energy? • Nutrients • What to eat and drink?
We can think of all foods as belonging to one of five different food groups. This picture shows us the types of foods to eat in the right proportions.
Bread, other cereals and potatoes Eat plenty! Choose wholemeal and wholegrainvarieties to make sure you get plenty of fibre
Fruit and vegetables Eat plenty! Eat at least five portions every day and Remember, all types count; fresh, frozen canned, dried and juices.
Milk and dairy foods Eat in moderate amounts These foods are a rich source of calcium but they can also be high in saturates so choose reduced fat and low fat varieties when possible.
Meat, fish and alternatives Eat in moderate amounts Eat a good variety of the foods in this group, choose lean cuts of meat and avoid frying these foods.
Foods containing fat, foods containing sugar Eat in small amounts Eat these foods infrequently or use small amounts.
Drinks Why do we need water? How much do you need? Which drinks to choose? Have extra drinks when doing exercise or if the weather is hot.
Salt A lot of the salt we eat comes from processed foods, so don’t add use too much when cooking and don’t add salt to your food automatically. Taste it first!
