Model Answer:
Just like every other health-conscious people, I also have a habit of reading and learning more about healthy living. Of course, I don’t always like what I read or learn (well…trust me, “living healthy” is not an easy thing), but I certainly liked a health-related article, which I have recently read, and today I would like to talk about that.
Anyway, I read the article about a month ago or so in a very popular health magazine in my country – a health magazine which I very seldom read because, frankly speaking, it is kind of expensive for me to buy or subscribe online. But I decided to buy a copy of this magazine with the hope that I would get some authentic and updated news about maintaining “gut health” as I suffer from some digestive problems from time to time. Of course, it is not a serious health issue, but it does negatively affect my normal life, and I wanted to do something different about it instead of just taking some medicines.
Now, back to our original topic – the article that is. Oh, by the way, the article, I am talking about, didn’t really talk exclusively about “gut health” (which I was looking for), but it did talk about some kind of “balanced diets” for people of different age groups. In fact, the article, written by a very accomplished public health professional of our country, went to a great length also in explaining what kinds of foods we ought to consume in different kinds of weather to keep our body and digestive system functioning at its optimum.
Anyway, to conclude, I learned a great deal about how our overall health and digestive system are so intricately interconnected. Besides, by reading this article, I also came to know how we can enjoy our food even more by eating the right kind and amount of food at the right time. So, all in all, the article was a great read with all the information it provided.
