00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:17,820
Hello, hello! Anji here with a video about the nutrients in food. So let's get started.

2
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:25,179
Food contains the nutrients we need to live and grow.

3
00:00:26,460 --> 00:00:30,039
Different food contains different nutrients.

4
00:00:30,039 --> 00:00:41,579
The five types of nutrients are carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, and minerals.

5
00:00:42,380 --> 00:00:45,020
So first we're going to start over here with carbohydrates.

6
00:00:46,439 --> 00:00:58,219
Foods that are carbohydrates are foods like bread, potatoes, cereals, rice, and pasta.

7
00:00:58,219 --> 00:01:08,239
now what about vitamins and minerals fruit and vegetables have vitamins and minerals

8
00:01:08,239 --> 00:01:18,140
oranges have vitamin c carrots have vitamin a and milk has a mineral called calcium

9
00:01:18,140 --> 00:01:24,620
so our fruits and vegetables like oranges they give us lots of vitamins lots of

10
00:01:24,620 --> 00:01:31,180
vitamin C. But milk, even though it's not a fruit or vegetable, it has something super special

11
00:01:31,180 --> 00:01:41,219
called calcium. And calcium makes our bones very strong and healthy. So now let's take a look at

12
00:01:41,219 --> 00:01:52,040
fats. Fats are foods like olive oil, chorizo, nuts, butter, and cheese.

13
00:01:52,040 --> 00:02:06,719
lastly let's take a look at proteins proteins things like meat fish eggs and dairy products

14
00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:13,680
have proteins so dairy products are all the products that have milk for example cheese

15
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:20,659
butter yogurt all of those things are considered dairy products because they have milk

16
00:02:20,659 --> 00:02:29,020
and lentils and beans also have proteins and they make us very very strong and grow our muscles

17
00:02:29,020 --> 00:02:39,340
all right so here we have our food chart and our food chart tells us exactly how much of each food

18
00:02:39,340 --> 00:02:47,300
we should be eating every day so let's take a look at fruits and vegetables which we have here

19
00:02:47,300 --> 00:02:59,960
So, it says that fruits and vegetables help to keep our bodies healthy.

20
00:03:00,539 --> 00:03:03,159
We should eat these foods every day.

21
00:03:03,979 --> 00:03:05,460
Well, let's see here.

22
00:03:06,419 --> 00:03:15,000
In our fruits and vegetables, we have things like bananas, oranges, berries like strawberries and blackberries.

23
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:21,599
and then for vegetables things like broccoli spinach and carrots it says we

24
00:03:21,599 --> 00:03:27,960
should eat these foods every day that's really important because it says that

25
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:32,580
fruits and vegetables help to keep our bodies healthy so if we want to be

26
00:03:32,580 --> 00:03:40,219
healthy we need to be eating these foods every day now let's take a look at

27
00:03:40,219 --> 00:03:48,219
proteins here we have our proteins and it says protein helps us to grow and

28
00:03:48,219 --> 00:03:57,840
keep our bones and muscles healthy drink milk daily eat beans and lentils often

29
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:07,460
eat red meat occasionally so what does this mean this is saying that proteins

30
00:04:07,460 --> 00:04:14,740
help to keep our muscles and bones very strong and healthy and they also help our muscles and

31
00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:24,379
bones to grow. So whenever we're doing exercise, proteins help us to get big muscles and it says

32
00:04:24,379 --> 00:04:32,120
that we should drink milk daily because remember milk has something called calcium and calcium

33
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:42,399
also helps us to grow strong. Eat beans and lentils often. So often means maybe three times

34
00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:48,240
a week. We don't have to eat beans and lentils every day, but maybe three times a week so that

35
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:56,560
we are continuing to grow. And then it says eat red meat occasionally. Red meat are things that

36
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:05,920
of course are red like steak we should eat steak maybe once or twice a week but other proteins like

37
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:13,519
chicken fish and our dairy products like cheese eggs and yogurt we can eat those more often

38
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:23,120
so we need to remember that our proteins are our friends if we want to grow big and strong

39
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:33,060
so next we're going to look at our carbohydrates okay oops so carbohydrates

40
00:05:33,060 --> 00:05:44,959
it says carbohydrates give us energy you can eat bread pasta and olive oil regularly

41
00:05:44,959 --> 00:05:55,620
but butter and pastries should only be eaten on special occasions well what does this mean

42
00:05:55,620 --> 00:06:04,579
let's fix this here just a little there we go this means that our breads here we have pasta

43
00:06:04,579 --> 00:06:12,660
and also rice all of these things here give us energy but some of them give us better energy

44
00:06:12,660 --> 00:06:21,000
than others. For example, it says you can eat bread and pasta and olive oil regularly, which

45
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:29,420
means every day, but things like butter and chorizo and pastries that have lots of sugar

46
00:06:29,420 --> 00:06:37,680
should only be eaten on special occasions, maybe once a week, for example, or twice a week,

47
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:44,620
because sugar, even though it's super yummy, it's not the best for us and we should only eat it

48
00:06:44,620 --> 00:06:52,439
sometimes. But all of these foods in this category give us lots of energy, which is also important to

49
00:06:52,439 --> 00:07:00,399
be healthy. And lastly, it says here, don't forget to drink water and play your favorite sport.

50
00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:07,800
so in the middle here what keeps us all together is water and exercise which is really important

51
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:14,759
that we have all of these things in our diet and in our lives to be healthy and strong
