Staying healthy is all about balance! We don't mean that you have to be an acrobat, you just need to have a balanced diet and an active lifestyle.

Uisce knows a lot about balance, just look at how he can stay up on his skateboard! He's here to tell you more about how to eat a healthy, balanced diet.

The first thing you should know is that every food falls into a food category or group. There are 5 categories of food group: carbohydrate, fruit and vegetables, protein, dairy and fats and sugars.

A balanced diet means eating not too much of one type of food group, but making sure you eat from all the food categories every day. If you eat 10 chocolate bars every day this is not a balanced diet, but if you eat nothing but apples every day this isn't healthy either!
