Reading Text
A Healthy Lifestyle
“Staying healthy is very important for everyone. A healthy lifestyle includes eating a balanced diet and doing regular exercise. A balanced diet means eating different types of food: fruits, vegetables, grains, protein, and dairy. You should eat at least five portions of fruits and vegetables every day.
Exercise is also very important. Doctors recommend at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day. You can walk, run, swim, play football, or ride a bicycle. Exercise helps your heart, muscles, and bones grow strong. It also makes you feel happy and reduces stress.
Finally, getting enough sleep is essential. Teenagers need 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night. Good sleep helps you concentrate better at school and stay healthy.”
