Food
“Food is what you eat to give your body the energy and nutrients it needs to grow, stay strong, and feel good. Eating healthy foods like fruits, veggies, and proteins helps you have more energy and stay focused, while treats are okay sometimes too. Food fuels your body and mind.”
Food for a healthy mind and body
Eating well helps you feel good, think clearly, and have energy. Here’s what to include in your diet:
Fruits and veggies
Loaded with vitamins and antioxidants. Try berries, spinach, broccoli, and oranges.
Whole grains
Keep your energy steady. Think oats, quinoa, brown rice, and whole wheat bread.
Lean proteins
Help build muscles and keep you strong. Eat fish like salmon, chicken, beans, nuts, and seeds.
Healthy fats
Good for your brain and heart. Avocado, olive oil, nuts, and fatty fish are great choices.
Dairy or alternatives
Give you calcium and vitamin D for strong bones. Yogurt, cheese, milk, or plant-based milks like almond or soy.
Stay hydrated
Drink plenty of water, herbal teas, or fruit-infused water to keep your body and brain working well.
Foods that boost your mood
Dark chocolate, turmeric, and green tea can help you feel calm and focused.
Eat balanced meals with protein, healthy fats, and good carbs.
Have regular meals to keep your energy up.
Listen to your body—eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full.
Tips for eating well
Eating well isn’t about being perfect—it’s about giving your body and mind what they need to rock every day.
