The diet Today I would speak about diet. The term "diet" come from a latin word that means "way of living". Many people think that the term "diet" is related to reducing the quantity of food in order to lost weight, but it's not so. Actually, when people speak about diet, they immediately think which food don't eat. For they diet mean "don't eat something". I think that a right diet consists of eating a moderate quantity of many food. Variety and quantity are the key for a good diet and a good health. Another important thing to take in mind if you want to eat well, it's to prepare the food yourself, and don't eat already prepared food bought in a supermarket or in a restaurant. This is because when you cook the food yourself, you realise some important things: first of all, you realize how many time do you need to prepare a dish and this is important to understand the right value of food and don't waste it; second, you become aware of the ingredients necessary to prepare a dish. For example, if you do a cake by yourself, you find out that you need a lot of sugar and a lot of butter (in addition to eggs, flour, chocolate and so on). This is not so evident when you buy a cake o some biscuits outside home.
