Thesis: Nutrition is an essential aspect of a healthy lifestyle and the importance of getting it right cannot be overstated.

Argument: First of all, swapping unhealthy junk food and snacks out for nutritious food is the first step to keeping your weight within a healthy range relative to your body composition, without the need to jump on the fad-diet bandwagon.

Secondly, many chronic diseases such as type-2 diabetes and heart disease are caused by poor nutrition and obesity.

Thirdly, our immune system requires essential vitamins and minerals in order to function optimally.

Fourthly, certain types of food such as tomatoes and berries can increase vigour and improve cognitive performance, all the while protecting your body against the effects of ageing.

Lastly, eating the right foods can actually make you happier– nutrients such as iron and omega-3 fatty acids found in protein-rich food can boost your mood.

This contributes to better overall mental well-being and protects you against mental health issues.

Reiteration: Healthy eating is all about eating balanced proportions of nutrient-rich foods from the various food groups, as well as adopting several healthy eating habits.
