Tired? Want something to drink? Get a Coke or another fizzy drink and feel the effect on your mind and body!
We all do it, but for many English school kids, this is breakfast. More than 50,000 children who are 810 years old don't eat anything in the morning and come to school tired, empty and irritable. And what are the hopes for healthy eating at school? Many schools now have a canteen where kids have a choice. And so they decide to take pizza and chips instead of salad and fish. When you are young, you think you will never die and don't care about 'adult" problems like obesity (being extremely fat) and heart disease. The Heart Foundation has just started a campaign to show that bad eating habits from our childhood are often the most important causes of heart problems when we are older. Modern eating habits are very destructive. Today's children are in more danger of heart diseases and some forms of cancer than their parents and grandparents. They also have to decide which food to choose, genetically modified or organic. In Britain today, the second option is becoming more and more popular.
So where do we start if we want to eat in a healthy way? First, we should eat normally but do a lot of physical exercises. It is very hard to keep to a diet, and it's all too easy to start getting fat again. The best idea is to exercise in the morning and not to eat snacks, especially late at night! Second, if you eat meat, chicken and fish are much better than red meats. They're good for your body and mind, too.
Third, we should remember that fizzy drinks, tea and coffee are all 'diuretics", which means that they take water away from the body. Fizzy drinks also reduce the amount of healthy substances which the body can take from food. So if you suffer from headaches or a general lack of energy, try putting away all those drinks and having lots of water instead. Sometimes your skin gets clearer and your eyes start shining - so a healthy lifestyle means prettier looks, too! /adapted from: Neale Anderson, 'Food, dangerous food", Current/

WE INTERVIEW CONNOR FOR HIS OPINIONS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM
( 6.1.).........
No, I don't think they should. At the moment they report on people's private lives much too much.
( 6.2.).........
They know that their readers are interested in famous people, so they try very hard to find some scandal about them. Reporters watch their houses all the time and note down everything they do.
( 6.3.).........
No, it's not. Famous people should be allowed to have a private life. They can't have normal lives when reporters are following them everywhere. It's not possible to do anything when people are watching you. It's an invasion of privacy. It's not fair.
( 6.4.).........
Because, for example, my parents got divorced two years ago. My sister and I were very unhappy. When famous people divorce, it's all in the newspapers with stories that aren't true. Imagine what it is like when you have to read about your parents" divorce in the newspaper.
( 6.5.).........
No, I don't think they are. I've heard about famous people who have gone on holiday to a quiet island in the Caribbean to be alone. But in fact photographers have found them and taken many photographs!
( 6.6.).........
Yes, they should, but only if they give interviews. The problem is that newspapers often write things about them that are invented or discovered by spying on them. Sometimes magazines say openly that they have got their facts wrong but it's too late - the damage is already done.
( 6.7.).........
Not much. If a friend buys a newspaper with a lot of gossip in, I will probably have a look but I'm not very interested. I don't care what Leonardo DiCaprio does. If he is a good actor, nothing else is important.
