Section C
[25 marks]
Questions 26 31 are based on the following passage.
1

Developing proper eating habits contribute to a healthy mind and body. Eating a wellbalanced diet with healthy food ensures your overall health is maintained. By incorporating
fish into your daily diet can add the nutritional value to your health and well-being. Fish can
be cooked to suit different tastes and satisfy diverse appetite.

Fish is considered a perfect food to those who are practising healthy eating to reduce 5
calorie intake and maintain nutritional value. It has a low calorie ratio, is high in protein and
contains low cholesterol and saturated fats.

Eat two or three servings of fish a week. The American Heart Association recommends
eating fish at least twice a week. This applies particularly to fatty fish such as mackerel, lake
trout, herring, sardines, albacore, tuna and salmon. Other pluses of eating fish include

10

vitamin B complex, selenium, iron and other trace minerals. Some species are also rich in
vitamin A and D.
4

Research and studies have indicated some fish such as salmon, mackerel and trout are
high in Omega 3 fatty acids. Basically, Omega 3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fats or socalled good fats. These desirable fats cannot be made by the human body, so they must be 15
obtained from food or supplemental sources. These fats are required for normal development
of the brain, eyes and nerve tissues to support a healthy heart.

Studies have shown that a diet rich in Omega prevents not only heart attacks but
Alzheimers disease, kidney cancer and inhibits the formation of abnormal cells, thus
reducing the risk of other types of cancer. Besides, fish has been found to improve blood

20

circulation, reduce blood clots, optimize brain function and essential for fetal brain
development. There are many studies done about the positive effects of Omega 3 fatty acid,
which is one more reason to include fish into your diet.

Fish is a great choice for anyone who wanting to make a positive change in the way
they eat. They not only provide great healthy choices for meals but also very affordable.

25

While some fish is slightly more expensive such as halibut and wild salmon, most are
reasonably inexpensive.

Prepare fish in a healthy way. Deep fat frying is not recommended as it adds fat and
calories. Bake, poach, grill or microwave instead of frying. You can also create great dishes
with fresh fish which are easy to prepare. Just be sure to find a recipe that doesnt add butter,
30
creamy sauces as the calories can add up to quite a lot.
