Health Test next week. Review the following:

- four food groups in Canada food guide

- a balanced meal (25% carbohydrates, 25% protein, 50% fruits and vegetables); your dinner last night

- what's wrong with refined carbohydrates (white bread/rice, pasta): refined carbohydrates will convert into sugar in a short period of time

- what is diabetes and insulin? How does insulin regulate blood sugar (refined carbohydrates turn into sugar after digestion in a short period of time) - diabetes small blood vessels crack and it will affect their eye sights and movements (lose toes)

- whole wheat or whole grain bread is better than white bread or pasta (body will take longer to digest and turn whole gran/wheat into blood sugar)

- why should we eat a salad first before our meal? (stay full for longer so we don't have to eat constantly)

- protein (eggs, meat, nuts, soya, tofu etc) takes longer to digest and the body uses more energy to absorb the nutrient. Less sugar rush (Kwok eats 3 egg white/ one whole wheat toast every morning)
