    SPEAKING TASK 2

    Name: ___________________________________________________ N°: _____

    I. YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE A CONVERSATION COMPARING A HEALTHY AND AN UNHEALTHY


    FOOD, AND THE WAYS TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN THEM.

     First read the text:

    You don’t need to avoid junk food completely, but you shouldn’t eat too much of it, as it will
    have negative effects on your health. Nutrient density is a very important concept when looking
    at the difference between junk food and healthy food. A nutrient-dense food contains high
    levels of essential nutrients per calories. If a food is high in fat or sugar, it is generally not
    nutrient-dense. Grains, low-fat dairy products, seafood, poultry, and lean meat, are healthier
    options. Fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains are complex carbohydrates and our
    bodies’ best sources of energy. Highly processed foods contain simple carbohydrates, like
    sugar, which are less beneficial to your health.

     Choose two foods, one healthy and one not so healthy. Look at the nutrient labels or at
    nutritional tables and answer the questions for each food:

    What is the total number of simple and complex carbohydrates? 


    What is the total number of fat grams, sugar, and carbohydrates? 
    What is the total number of protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals?

     Decide which food is the best choice and why.

    Which food has the highest number of fat, carbohydrates, and sugar? How do you know? 
    Which food provides the most energy? How do you know? 
    Which food provides most nutrients? How do you know?
