Reading Comprehension: Staying Healthy with Food and Sport

Eating the right food and playing sports are both important for staying healthy. Your body needs a variety
of nutrients to grow, move, and stay strong. For example, carbohydrates, found in bread and rice, give
your body energy. Protein, which is in foods like meat and yogurt, helps build muscles. To keep your
bones healthy, your body needs calcium, which is found in dairy products. Calcium is important because
it strengthens your bones and teeth.

When you eat food, your stomach begins to digest it so your body can use the nutrients. Some foods
like sugary foodmay give you an energy lift, but they don’t help you feel full for long. It’s better to eat
healthy snacks that containprotein and carbohydrates. You should also drink plenty of water to
stay hydrated, especially when you exercise.

Exercise is important because it helps the body use energy and build stronger muscles. There are many
different sports to choose from. If you like team sports, you can play football or hockey. In football,
players try to score goals by kicking a ball between the goalposts, and they wear shin pads for
protection. In hockey, players use a hockey stick to hit a ball on the field or a puck on the ice.

If you prefer individual sports, you might enjoy gymnastics, judo, or athletics. Gymnastics builds
strength and flexibility. Judo uses throws and holds, and athletes wear a belt to show their level. In
athletics, people run, jump, or throw. If you enjoy racket sports, you might play badminton, where you hit
a shuttlecock over a net using a racquet. And don’t forget your goggles if you go swimming!

Eating well and staying active will help your body repair itself, carry oxygen through your blood cells,
and keep you feeling great.
