The Best Advice I Was Ever Given

Everyone gets advice from someone every once in a while. And like everything else, there is good, bad, and best advice. I know the best advice I was given was by my mom. She said that health is the most important, and eating healthy is key. I think this is both the best and the most important advice I’ve ever been given.

One example of what happens when someone does not follow this advice is my cousin, who is in his twenties. My cousin is currently in the hospital after having eaten too many fatty foods. He ate unhealthy junk food that he secretly ordered without following his parents’ advice to eat healthy food. Previously, the rest of the family had known that he had obesity, but did not know where it came from. One day, he had a stroke and was taken to the hospital. He told the doctor that he had been ordering the junk food. This was the worst way to learn the lesson that you are what you eat and suffer the irreversible consequences.

Another example of this is my dad’s boss. He does not eat many vegetables. He mostly eats meat. Additionally, he likes to drink. This caused him to have a stroke recently. This stroke is estimated to keep him in the hospital until the end of this year. His boss is also young and was not following the advice from his wife.

These are just some examples of why it is so important to show how good the advice I was given is to control what enters the mouth. This advice is also important for staying well, because eating is essential to health. I have been following the advice as much as possible. Some of my classmates use their allowance money to buy unhealthy snacks at school. I usually don’t eat junk food at school. I can have my mind clear during the math class in the afternoon, while most of my classmates feel drowsy, sleepy, and not able to focus in that class. My math teacher has gotten upset with some of the students because of this.

In conclusion, eating healthy food is the best advice I have ever received. We have seen examples of what has happened to young people when they didn’t follow the advice. This advice is crucial to life because without health, nothing can be done.
