Hi there, I’m here to talk about the importance of a balanced diet and exercise 

<pause>

Why do we need to worry about a balanced diet and exercise ? well Let me tell you.

<pause>

Scotland has one of the worst obesity records in the developed world

<pause>

64.6 % of scottish adults are overweight or obese

<pause>

1 in 5 P1 children in Lothian are at risk of overweight or obesity

<pause> 

being overweight increases the risk of Type 2 diabetes 

<pause>

hypertension,

<pause> 

asthma in children,

<pause> 

cardiovascular disease, 

<pause>

osteoarthritis 

<pause>

and some cancers in adults.

<pause> 

all of this costs the NHS scotland 175 million pound a year

 <pause>  

but don’t worry

<pause>

we can prevent all this with a proper balanced diet and exercise 

<pause>

Now lets take a look at a few examples of foods and how much exercise is needed to burn those calories off

<pause> 

in order to burn the 214 calories found a 500ml bottle of soda you would have to climb stairs for 25 mins

<pause>

a half deep pan pizza will take 2 and half hours of skipping to burn those 1720 calories 

<pause> 

1 double choc muffin thats 364 calories will take you 1 hr of  jogging  

<pause> 

that 190 calorie glazed doughnut takes 26 minutes of cycling 

<pause>

an ice cream cone with 396 calories will be burnt up playing basket ball for 62 minutes 

<pause>

now 

lets take a low calorie snack like a 71 calorie banana and compare the exercises times 

<pause>

as you can see banana takes far less exercise to burn off!

<pause>

we can use this pie chart to show what foods we can consume more of 

<pause>

and which one we should eat when we want to treat ourselves 

<pause>

so eat a healthy diet balanced and get some exercise to feel great and stay healthy!
