Describe an article you read about healthy living
You should say:
● what it was about
● when you read it
● where you read it
● and explain what you learnt from it (what it was about) ( when you read it) (where you read it) I’ve come across several videos in youtube. I subscribed for many cookery videos last year, and interestingly one of the chefs had an
interview with Mrs X, a nutritionist. It was very impressive that I looked for her articles on the internet and found that she had a website called “abc..com”.
(explain what you learnt from it) I studied the website every nook and corner and found the tips to be very useful. I especially like the way she has categorised the information into “myths”, “facts” and “truths”. I learnt that if you are craving for something sinful, like sweets and savouries all through the day, you ought to find a healthy alternative and work on analysing why you’ve got such a craving. I also learnt that not all fats are bad for health. I got to know the difference between trans fat and saturated fat. It was surprising to know that we need some fats like Omega3 and Omega6, and it is too much trans fat that leads to conditions like a heart attack. Also, the website strongly stated that being slim doesn’t mean a person is healthy and that we should not judge anyone’s health by their weight. There were many such myths and explanations given which clarified many of my doubts on health. I found the website very informative.
