Unit 4 Food Myths
“Only fruit and vegetables are healthy
foods.”
The human body needs to eat many different types of food to stay healthy. The Chinese Food Guide Pagoda shows us what food we should eat. While fruit and vegetables are healthy choices, it is just important to eat foods from others food groups. Milk, for example, contains many nutrients and is good for our bones. We should include milk or dairy products among the things we eat.
“Eating fat makes you fat”
Eating fat is important for keeping us healthy. It gives us energy and helps our body to take in nutrients. Not all fat makes us gain weight. Some fat can even encourage our body lose weight. It is necessary to include some, but not too much fat in our food to help our body work well.
“It’s OK to eat only what I like while I’m young.”
When we are young, it might feel like we can just eat whatever we want! For example, sweets and fried foods taste delicious. But we can not eat these foods alone. Eating balanced meals is very important when we are young. It helps our body and brain to grow well. Bad eating habits may stay with us for our whole life, it is best to learn good eating habits early!

食物的错误观念
“只有水果和蔬菜才是健康食品。”
人体需要吃多种不同类型的食物才能保持健康。中国居民平衡膳食宝塔向我们展示了我们应该吃什么食物。虽然水果和蔬菜是健康之选，但吃其他食物类别的食物也同样重要。例如，牛奶含有多种营养成分，对骨骼有益。我们应该将牛奶或乳制品列入我们的饮食中。
“吃脂肪会让人发胖。”
吃脂肪对保持我们的健康很重要。它能为我们提供能量，帮助我们的身体吸收营养。并不是所有的脂肪都会让我们发胖。有些脂肪甚至能促进身体减肥。在我们的食物中加入一些脂肪是必要的，但不要太多，以帮助我们的身体健康成长。
