-Eat foods that contains high levels of salt

Yeah, pretty sure i love salt. Sometimes, i go to kitchen and i take some salt and i just ate like that. i loves salt! but salt is not good for our health. Tell our mom to reduce salt in the food that we eat. We still can take salt but we must reduce it.A lot of salt in our body will cause blood pressure and hipertension.

-Eating food that high in fat and cholesterol

For sure, food that rich in fat and cholesterol must be McDonald, KFC, pizzahut and other. We still can eat those thing but we need to limit the food take we take, maybe once a month or once a year ? Much better, isn't it ?

Food Pyramid


The food at the 1st level is the main food that we must take. It contains carbohydrate complex, vitamin, minerals, fiber, and other components that are important for our health.
Rice, oat, barley, corn, sorghum, wheat and other products are source of energy and good protein for our body.
Cereal products contain more iron, fosforus, vitamin B, (tiamin. niasin, riboflavin) and fibre
Everyday, at least, we must choose one fruit or vegetables that rich with vitamin B and carotenoids to eat. I love apple but now i rarely eat fruit because my father didn't buy fruit. The last day that I eat fruit maybe a year ago hahaha! Too bad ~ Green vegetables are good such as mustard, spinach and kale. Other vegetables and fruits also good for our health
