Areyou going to eat all these junk foods?
Yoga : Of course! Im a man. I need more foods.But I buy it for you too. There are ice cream
and cheese hamburger.
Tina
: Do you ever think what kind of danger that will come for you by eating these foods?
: No.. Yoga. These foods will bring bad effects for your precious health.
Jana
Tina
: I join the healthy life club that attempts to motivate its members to live a healthy
lifestyle. We were taught to stay away from junk foods since junk foods like foods you
are going to eat now are known to be very bad for health.
: You know that these foods contain high calories, fats, and sugar, but are really low in
nutritional value. Due to the high calories, the more you eat these foods the bigger your
body will be. It is called obesity. These foods are also high in salt. If you really love
eating these foods, they will lead you to a risk of high blood pressure.
Jana
Tina
: Of course! Moreover, if you consume these junk foods day in, day out, then the
saturated fats will accumulate in your body, especially in your blood vessels. Day after
day the fats will pile up in your blood vessels and eventually block your blood stream and
make it clogged. If this happens on the blood vessels on your brain, you will then get a
brain stroke. The worst one is if you have high blood pressure and the fats block the
blood stream on your heart, then you can get a fatal heart strike that can lead you to
death.
Yoga : [Gulp] is that. Is that true?
Tina
Yoga : Alright, I think youre right. I have to start to go with a healthy lifestyle.
Jana
: Whoa, thanks for that information, Rina. You really opened our eyes.
Yoga : So, what should I do with all these foods? I havent even eaten them yet.
Tina
Yoga : [sigh] Oh, great. Im sorry Miss. Would you like to wrap all this food for us to take
home?
(Eka) Waitress : Oh sure. Wait a moment please.
Jana
: Maybe it would be better if we buy the ingredients to cook vegetables then we cook at
home.
