Read the text and complete the sentences. Health and eating
The food we eat can affect our health in many ways. If we eat unhealthy food, we'll be sick.
These long-term effects vary depending on where we live and how much we eat. In a country with food shortages due to war or lack of rain, people might suffer from malnutrition. People with malnutrition lose a lot of weight and become very thin and weak. People in rich, developed countries can also develop food-related illnesses, but they're usually related to eating too much, or overeating.
People who overeat can become overweight, especially if they don't exercise. Being a little overweight isn't usually related to serious health problems, but putting on more weight and becoming obese definitely is. This is because obesity is a major risk factor for many serious illnesses like cancer, diabetes, heart diseases, bones diseases.
People who are suffering from malnutrition can usually recover by simply eating nutritious food, but people who are obese face a far more difficult situation. To recover they must lose a lot of weight by eating less and changing to a healthy diet¹. This can be very difficult to do, especially if they live in a place full of Western-style fast foods and processed foods. And even if they lose weight by going on a diet², most people soon return to their usual diet and put the weight back on.
All the energy our bodies need comes from the food we eat, and it's measured in calories. If we balance the calories we get from food with the number we "burn" each day as energy, our body weight stays the same. But if we eat more food than we need, the extra energy is stored as body fat and we put on weight.
