                                               BALANCED DIET

        A diet containing the right amount of food from each food group is called a
        balanced diet. Eating too much of one type of food will cause an imbalance in

        your diet. Taking an  unbalanced diet regularly causes many health problems
        and slows the body growth.

        Besides taking a balanced diet, we should drink plenty of water every day. Liquids


        like milk, lassi, milk shakes and fresh fruit juices are healthy drinks.  ey clean
        our body systems.
