Food For Thought!

In Rimu Class, we have been learning about food and how good it is for you.
Today we had a session with this nutritionist named Chloe.
She has been telling us how much fat there is in cereal and how much sugar there is in it.
Chloe has also been talking to us about how much sugar and fat there are in energy drinks and milk.

Here are some things Chloe has been talking to us about:
Chloe said that kids like us should have only five or less teaspoons of sugar a day.
She also showed us some bottles with energy drinks and flavored milk drinks and showed us how much sugar there is in each and every one of them.
In one of the energy drinks, there is twenty teaspoons in it so that is four days worth of sugar we should have each day.
Chloe also said that we shouldn't drink coffee until we are twenty five because up until we are twenty five we get all of the calsium we can get and then we stop getting more and stay with the limit of calsium we get.
She showed us the food pyramid and we put all of them in order with the healthy food up to the unhealthy food and we talked about what is healthier and what isn't.
Chloe told us all the things to eat to keep us healthy and the things that make us unhealthy and sick.
We got told what makes us sick and what types of food makes us healthy.
Chloe told us what types of food that gives us fibre, sodium and more.

Chloe told a lot about food and things like that and I hope she comes back and tells us more about it and stuff. I hope you guys like this and read it.
Bye!

  1. Hey Sita it's Izzy I really like your food for thought post and how you have said about how much sugar is in some drinks. It would be cool if next time you put a photo to show what the drinks looked like or something like that.
    Bye.

    I am really impressed with your post and how well you have explained all of the facts that Chloe shared with us. It is a shame that you missed our trip to Pak n Save today but I am sure you will catch up on learning by viewing blog posts from other kids in our class. Great writing here too.
