DIET

A person's diet is what he eats and drinks, and it is highly im­portant because both growth and health are affected by it. Everyone knows that without food people starve to death, and every year this happens in some countries of the world in the times of famine. Even people who can get food, however, sometimes suffer from various kinds of illnesses because they are eating too much of one kind of food and not enough of another. This is because the body has many different needs and these needs require a balanced diet.

A normal healthy diet for one day is a salad, fruit of some kind, a pint of milk, fish or meat, some cheese or an egg and some bread. Apple, orange or grapefruit juice is always a good thing, at breakfast or at any other time, so is a glass of water first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

Water is, of course, absolutely necessary to every kind of diet. About 70% of the weight of the human body is water, and a healthy man requires four quarts of water every 24 hours. However, since about 70% of most of the foods eaten is water, a large proportion of water comes from his food. The rest must be provided by tea, coffee, milk, soup and, of course, plain water.
