This Choosing Healthy Food section will cover:
– how to choose healthy foods,
– healthy eating and cooking tips,
– how foods effect your health and wellbeing.
At the end of this section, test your knowledge with a quiz about the different foods that you have learned about.
Guidelines have been outlined to help find healthier options within some food groups.
