What Is Our Program About?
Our program is an introduction to healthy
eating habits. It is about the significance of
breakfast in a balanced diet. In this CDROM there is a short presentation of some
basic principles we (students and teachers
together) have learnt throughout the year.
At the end, there is a video where three
students (the “brave” ones) present two
simple recipes.
We hope you will enjoy our work as much
as we did!!!
Why Is Breakfast Necessary?
The morning meal breaks a fast that
has lasted from 8 to 12 hours. Since
your last meal or snack, your body’s
supply of blood sugar (glucose) has
dropped to a low point. The body needs
food to produce the glucose that is
necessary to keep you going. That’s
why it is necessary to have breakfast
every day.
What Does Breakfast Do?
Studies show that breakfast contributes
significant nutrients and calories to
the diet. Nutrients missed by skipping
breakfast are not compensated for in
subsequent meals.
And If We Skip Breakfast?
Without breakfast, students do not
perform as well as they could in the
classroom and they are less able to do
physical work/activities in the late
morning hours.
Do These Excuses Sound
Familiar?
“I’d eat breakfast if I had more
time.”
TRUE
FALSE
Wrong Answer !!!!!!!

You’re Right!!!!!
A nutritious breakfast need not be timeconsuming to prepare or eat. The few
minutes it takes to fix breakfast can
result in several hours of greater
efficiency and achievement in the
morning. Those extra few minutes of
sleep won’t benefit you as much as a
good breakfast.
Skipping Breakfast Helps Me
Lose Weight.”

False
Wrong Answer!!!!!

Good Answer!!!!
Research shows that skipping breakfast can make
weight control more difficult. Breakfast skippers may
eat more food than usual at the next meal or nibble
high-calorie snacks to curb hunger. Other studies
suggest that the human body tends to accumulate more
fat when a person eats fewer, larger meals than when
the same number of calories are consumed in smaller,
more frequent meals. A recent study found that eating a
high-fibre cereal at breakfast decreased caloric intake at
lunch. So, eating breakfast every day is one of the best
ways to help you to control your weight.
What Is Healthy Eating?
No single food contains all the essential
nutrients the body needs to be healthy,
because a healthy diet is a balance of a
wide variety of foods. It is also that foods
eaten should be enjoyable as well as
nutritious.
There are five food groups.
Each group provides certain
nutrients so it is important to
eat foods from each one of
them every day.
Cereal Group
Dairy Group
Fruit and Vegetable Group
Meat and Alternatives Group
Fats And Sugar
Group
What Is the Food Pyramid?
It is the schematic representation of
the amount of different foods we
should eat every day. We need more
cereal, bread or pasta, less fruit and
vegetables, even less meat, poultry
or eggs and as for sugar products ….
the least the better.

What Are Vitamins and
Minerals?
Vitamins and minerals are nutrients
– “healthy helpers” contained in all
foods in different amounts- which
are needed by our bodies:
For energy
For growth
To keep our bodies working
properly
Breakfast cereals
What Is Fibre?
Dietary fibre is found in an assortment
of foods from plant sources and is
generally divided into two categories,
soluble fibre and insoluble fibre. Soluble
fibre forms a gel in water; Insoluble
fibre doesn't. Some good fibre sources
are grains (wheat, barley, oats and
rye) and grain-based foods such as
bread and breakfast cereals, nuts
fruit, and vegetables.
Do Teenagers Take Enough
Fiber?
Unforunately, teenagers aren't
getting the fibre they need in order to
meet their changing needs as they
grow.
Edible Fibre Of Foods
Among the most widely accepted
sources of fibre for children are
fruit and vegetables, as well as
wheat bran-based and whole-grain
cereals.
What Is Iron?
Iron is a mineral that is good for us. It is
found in some of the foods we eat. It helps
us stay healthy and feel good. Lack of iron
in the body is the most common cause of
“anaemia”, a serious nutrition disorder
which is particularly common in teenagers.
It makes them feel tired. It can effect
performance at school as it makes it
difficult to concentrate.
Why Do Teenagers Need
Calcium?
Calcium is one of the most important
minerals.It is vital for healthy bones
and teeth, especially for the growing
children and teenagers.
Vitamins
Vitamin A is important for the
maintenance of healthy skin and eyes.
Vitamin B1 helps release energy from
carbohydrate foods and also helps the
function of the nervous system.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) maintains healthy
skin and eyes. It helps vitamin B6 and
niacin to function in the body.
Vitamins
Folic acid is needed to produce red
blood cells and to prevent anaemia
Vitamin B6 is important for healthy skin,
blood and nerves. Niacin helps release
energy from foods and helps combats
tiredness.
Vitamin B12 helps blood cells grow and
develop. It is also necessary for a healthy
nervous system.
Vitamins
Vitamin C is needed to make collagen
which binds the cells of our tissues and
also helps the body to absorb iron.
Vitamin D is important for the growth
and maintenance of healthy bones and
teeth.
Vitamin E prevents damage to blood
vessels.
Vitamin K is important for in helping
blood clotting.

Cheesecake
Cheesecake
Ingredients
1/2 packet of wholemeal biscuits (200gr) crushed
2 tablespoons of low fat soft butter
1 carton of low fat cream cheese (200gr)
200gr of low-fat whipping cream (19% fat)
1/8 glass of sugar
2 tablespoons of caster sugar
some vanilla essence
200gr of jam (any fruit you like). You can substitute
it with fresh fruit.
Preparation
First we mix the crashed biscuits with butter and we stir until
they’ re evenly mixed. We put the mixture into a round cake
tin.We bake it for 15 min. Then we prepare the filling. We
mix cream cheese with sugar and vanilla essence into a bowl.
We also whip caster sugar and whipping cream for 5 min and
then put it in the fridge for at least an hour. This is
very important especially for low-fat whipping cream. Then
we put it into the cheese mixture and stir carefully. We put it
into the cake tin and top it with the jam. It’s best to use
home-made jam.
A small portion of this dessert is really good for all of us
who study and exercise a lot every day. It gives us the
energy we need and it’s really tasty!!
