What does good health and nutrition mean?

When we think about a good, healthy, balanced diet, we’re likely to remember our carbohydrates, proteins, fats and to drink plenty of water, but can tend to forget the micronutrients.

This resource forms one part of a topic on nutrition and digestion called ‘Food Counter’. You can find a starter activity for this topic on the GSK STEM Education website, here, or find the other three resources at these links:
