I ate pasta three times today. This really makes me think about my eating habits and how healthy they are. I think I really need to diversify my diet. A question that was raised in class today was: why variety? Why have lots of different variations of things, even people (for example, different skin colors)? In terms of diet, one reason to have variation is for health reasons: everyone needs to eat many different kinds of foods because different foods contain different vitamins. So, if you eat all kinds of foods (like vegetables, fruits, grains, protein), you get all the vitamins you need. But if you eat only one type of food (like I eat too many carbohydrates, obviously), you don't get all the vitamins that are vital to your health. I should think about this more when choosing my food. I will try to be more aware of it tomorrow.
