:“My Chosen Advocacy and How I Can Promote It as a Student”

Eat Healthy, Live Healthy

We chose the advocacy “Eat Healthy, Live Healthy” because we believe that health is our greatest wealth, and one of the simplest ways to protect it is by choosing the right food. In today’s busy world, many people—especially students—prefer fast food, junk food, or instant meals because they are cheap and convenient. However, eating unhealthy food regularly has long-term effects, such as lack of energy, weak immune system, and even serious diseases in the future. By promoting healthy eating, we can take care of our bodies, improve our performance in school, and live a better life.

The Problems We See

In our school and community, we often see classmates eating chips, candies, instant noodles, and drinking soft drinks almost every day. These foods may give temporary satisfaction, but they do not provide the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients needed for growth and learning. Some students even skip breakfast and rely only on junk food, which makes them feel tired and less focused in class.

This is a problem because poor nutrition affects not only our physical health but also our mental well-being and academic performance. To address this, students can make small but meaningful choices like bringing fruits, vegetables, or sandwiches from home, drinking more water, and avoiding too much sugar. Schools can also support this advocacy by having programs such as nutrition month, healthy snack campaigns, or even simple gardening projects where students can grow and eat fresh produce.

Our Personal Commitment

As a student, we know that change starts with us . We commit to choosing healthier meals every day, drinking more water, and lessening our intake of junk food and soft drinks. We will also try to influence our friends by reminding them of the importance of balanced meals. At home, we can help our family by suggesting healthier food options during meals. These small actions may seem simple, but if practiced consistently, they can create a big impact on our health and also encourage others to do the same.

Eating healthy is not just about looking good or avoiding sickness—it is about living a life full of energy, confidence, and strength. If we, as students, learn to value good nutrition at an early age, we are preparing ourselves for a healthier and brighter future. Truly, our daily choices matter, and every healthy bite brings us closer to a better life.
