0:00:12 > 0:00:15Of course how we eat can have an impact on our lives, but it
0:00:15 > 0:00:19can also affect how we're feeling so it's important to get it right.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Food is the fuel that keeps us going.

0:00:26 > 0:00:27to superfoods.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29It can sometimes be overwhelming and confusing.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33A good relationship with food is listening to our body,
0:00:33 > 0:00:35when we're hungry and when we're not,
0:00:35 > 0:00:37what food helps our body in the long run
0:00:37 > 0:00:39and what food maybe isn't so nutritious.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42It doesn't matter what size or age you are.
