Question

what is food?
write the different functions of food? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Any nutritious substance that people or animals eat or drink or that plants absorb in order to maintain life and growth is called food.

Food is important for life. To be healthy and active, we should certainly have enough food. But the foods we eat should also be safe and rich in all the nutrients our body needs. We should choose from a wide variety of foods and we should eat them regularly, throughout the day, every day of the year. Do not forget that we should also enjoy the food that we eat; it should look, smell and taste good. Without good nutrition, children and young people cannot develop their potential to the full, and adults will have difficulty in doing their best.

Food provides our bodies with what they need to:

1. Stay alive, be active, move and work

2. Build new cells and tissues for growth

3. Stay healthy and heal themselves

4. Prevent and fight infections, etc.
