At this time of pandemic, we cannot deny the fact that we need to be healthy to be free from the
threat of diseases. With this, how can we keep our body healthy?
According to nutritionists, eating healthy food such as fruits and vegetables are great sources of
vitamins and minerals that our body needs to be healthy. Also, drinking water is an effective way of keeping
our body healthy based on research. Keeping our body hydrated can keep us away from diseases because it
cleanses our body from toxins brought by unhealthy food. Exercise also gives our body strength and will
help burn unwanted fats. Lastly, enough sleep can make our body recover from a tiring day. Our body needs
rest so that all the organs inside it will stabilize and gain energy for the next day.
Now, if you want to be free from the diseases that we can get everywhere, start doing the things that
can keep your body healthy.

ACTIVITY 1
Identify if the persuasive essay has complete parts. Circle the introduction, box the body and underline the
conclusion.
Mind
All of us have received advice to “take a good rest” at least once in our lives. Probably, this is also
one of the most neglected pieces of advice a person may give to another. Everyone knows how sleep is
important: health experts, psychologists, self-help books, and other authoritative sources keep talking about
the importance of having good sleep–and still exhaustion and fatigue remain one of the biggest problems in a
number of developed countries.
First of all, if you ever wondered how someone with schizophrenia or other severe mental disease
feels, a sleepless night could get you closer to this condition. As researchers from the University of Bonn and
King’s College London discovered, upon missing a night of sleep, a psychologically-healthy person may
experience symptoms typical for some forms of schizophrenia.
Overall, there is a number of good reasons why you would not want to stay up the next time you feel
like working or studying at night. Also, your mood will be down, and it will become harder for you to
control your negative emotions, such as anger or fear. As if this was not enough, your body suffers as well.
So, in general, there is probably nothing that would compensate you for a night spent without sleep.
