Staying healthy: germs, vaccines, sleep, food and exercise, sentence 10
No single food has everything the body needs, so a balanced meal gives protein for building, carbohydrates for energy, some fat, vitamins, minerals and fibre; sailors once got scurvy from lack of vitamin C until lemons and limes were added to their food.
Who acts: single food, body, balanced meal, sailors · What happens: have, need, give, get, add, lack · To what, where: everything, protein, scurvy, lack, lemons, vitamin C
