    Protein is found in many foods, such as chicken, baked beans, and burgers. What is the biggest reason your body needs protein?

    • To clear out wax from your ears

    • To improve blood flow to the brain

    • To build and maintain healthy body tissue

    Correct Answer
    A. To build and maintain healthy body tissue
    Explanation
    Protein is essential for building and maintaining healthy body tissue. It plays a crucial role in the growth, repair, and maintenance of muscles, organs, skin, and other body tissues. Protein is made up of amino acids, which are the building blocks of the body. When we consume protein-rich foods, our body breaks down the protein into amino acids and uses them to build and repair tissues. Without adequate protein intake, the body may struggle to repair damaged tissues and maintain overall health.

    How often should you be doing some form of energetic exercise each week?

    • Once per week for one hour

    • 5 times per week for 1 hour each day

    • Once per month for no more than 15 minutes

    Correct Answer
    A. 5 times per week for 1 hour each day
    Explanation
    Engaging in energetic exercise for 5 times a week, with each session lasting for 1 hour, is the recommended frequency for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. This level of activity ensures that the body receives regular cardiovascular and muscular stimulation, helps in managing weight, and improves overall fitness. It also allows for sufficient recovery time between sessions, reducing the risk of injury and promoting long-term adherence to exercise habits.

    Vitamin A is found in carrots, broccoli and other vegetables. What does the body use Vitamin A for?

    • It strengthens the body’s ability to fight infection

    • It improves eyesight

    • It makes us type text quicker

    Correct Answer
    A. It improves eyesight
    Explanation
    Vitamin A is essential for maintaining good eyesight. It plays a crucial role in the production of a pigment called rhodopsin, which is necessary for proper vision, especially in low light conditions. Without enough vitamin A, the eyes may struggle to adjust to darkness and individuals may experience difficulty seeing in dimly lit environments. Therefore, consuming foods rich in vitamin A, such as carrots and broccoli, can help improve eyesight and maintain overall eye health.

    We should aim to eat 5 portions of fruits and vegetables per day. This recommendation is based on the guidelines provided by various health organizations, including the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Consuming a variety of fruits and vegetables ensures that we get a wide range of essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals necessary for maintaining good health. Eating 5 portions per day can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, promote a healthy weight, and support overall well-being.
