ANALYTICAL
EXPOSITION
What is Analytical Exposition Text?
An analytical exposition text shows the writer’s opinion about
something (like a thing, place, or event). It gives reasons but does not
tell the reader to do something.
Mindful Eating: A Healthier and
Happier Life
In today's busy world, people often choose fast food
instead of healthy food because it is more convenient
and requires less time to prepare. However, mindful
eating—paying attention to what and how we eat—
is important for the body and mind. Choosing
healthier foods can significantly improve overall
health.
Mindful eating gives the body the nutrients it needs
to work properly. Foods like fruits, vegetables, whole
grains, and lean proteins provide important vitamins
and minerals. These help to stay energized and
focused. In contrast, junk food and sugary snacks can
make the body feel tired and unfocused.
Also, mindful eating helps control eating habits.
Many people eat while watching TV or looking at their
phones, which can lead to overeating. Slowing down
the eating process allows individuals to better
recognize when they are full and prevent overeating.
As a final point, mindful eating is about making
healthy food choices and paying attention to how food
is consumed. Practicing mindful eating can improve
health and lower the risk of health issues.
