Pada kegiatan ini, sebuah teks eksposisi tentang fast food disajikan kepada siswa sebagai bahan
pengamatan

Now please read the following text related to the pictures and video!
Fast food, nowadays, is considered as a normal eating venture. People are not just
eating out on special occasions or weekends anymore. It means that all the time they
mostly eat fast foods. However, is fast food good for health?
First of all, fast food has its popularity in the 1940s. It is said that within a few
years, fast-food operations popped up everywhere. I believe that with the compelling rise
in fast-food restaurants since the 1940s, oddly it started the rise in obesity and cancer
during that same time period.
Secondly, fast food is highly processed with a wide array of additives. To ensure
fast food’s low cost, fast food products are made with highly-processed ingredients to
give it shelf-life, to hold consistency, and to enhance flavor. I think Fast food is altered
from its original healthy form.
Furthermore, it is not the calories in fast food which damage health and waistline.
It is chemical additives such as aspartame and MSG (monosodium glutamate). Studies
show that chemical additives lead to weight and disease issues.
So, there is absolutely nothing nutritional about fast food. I agree Fast food
simply feeds hunger and craving.

The Benefits of Vegetables

There are some benefits of vegetables that we need to know.

Vegetables prevent unwanted signs of aging and keep skin young and supple thanks to phytonutrients,
vitamin C and high water content. Choose brightly colored red and orange vegetables and you’ll get an
added boost of beta carotene, which can give you a healthy glow as it protects skin from sun damage.
Similarly, lycopene, found in red vegetables such as tomatoes, also has been shown to act as a natural
sunscreen.

Meanwhile, nutrients like magnesium and vitamin C are quickly depleted during stressful times. Luckily,
many vegetables contain these very nutrients, as well as tension-reducing omega-3 fatty acids and B
vitamins that fight anxiety and depression.

Some vegetables also have these same nutrients in addition to bone-building vitamin K, magnesium,
potassium and prebiotic fiber. Eat strong-spined, dark leafy greens like collard greens, turnip greens, kale,
spinach (cooked for more calcium!), broccoli and green peas for calcium and vitamin K. Mushrooms contain
vitamin D while asparagus, chard, kale, artichokes, onions, garlic and leeks are full of prebiotic fiber.

Vegetables have many advantages for us.

The Importance of Breakfast

Why is breakfast important? “Breakfast like a King, Lunch like a Prince and Dine like a Pauper” It’s a
well known phrase, but do you follow it?

Breakfast provides many benefits to our health and wellbeing. Breakfast provides the body and brain
with fuel after an overnight fast – that’s where its name originates, breaking the fast! Without breakfast you
are effectively running on empty, like trying to start the car with no petrol!

Breakfast support cognitive function. Breakfast also restores glucose levels, an essential
carbohydrate that is needed for the brain to function. Breakfast provides energy, studies have shown how
eating breakfast can improve memory and concentration levels and it can also make us happier as it can
improve mood and lower stress levels.

Breakfast provides energy needs. People’s energy needs vary depending on activity levels and life
stage but typically men require more energy than women. Growing children require a lot of energy, as an
example boys aged 7-10 years should consume approximately 1970 kcals per day, and girls aged 7-10
years should consume approximately 1740 kcals.
