We all know that eating healthy food makes us feel good, but how come? Well the truth is, healthy food works by being packed full of things called nutrients. A person that eats nutritious food can become healthy by absorbing the different vitamins and minerals found in the food they eat.
It all starts once we put food in our mouth and start chewing it. As food makes its way down our throats and through the stomach, our body uses its own set of tools called enzymes that basically pick out all of the nutritious stuff like vitamins and minerals and then carries it over to our bloodstream.' Once the vitamins and minerals are in the bloodstream, it's like a tiny pizza delivery service inside your body that brings all the different organs the nutrients they need to function properly. For example, if you just played a basketball game, and you are tired it's like your body places an order to have nutrition delivered to your muscles and heart pronto. So remember, the nutrients found in food are what makes people healthy, and the best way for people to stay healthy is to eat foods that are packed with nutrition.
