Balanced Diet - FREE KS3 Biology Worksheet

Discover the seven food groups your body needs to stay healthy in this free KS3 Biology worksheet 🍎 - no preparation needed, just download and use. Perfect as a lesson starter, homework task, or quick revision activity for students aged 11-14.

A balanced diet means eating the right amount of each food group - carbohydrates, protein, fats, vitamins, minerals, fibre and water - so the body gets everything it needs to work properly.

The worksheet includes three questions: a multiple-choice question on the body's main source of energy, a fill-in-the-blank exercise naming carbohydrates, protein and fats from their food sources, and a short-answer question asking students to explain what would happen if their diet had no carbohydrates and no fats. Together these are worth 13 marks, with a full answer key included. Watch the full lesson on YouTube: https://youtu.be/m2iIS9R9cWE

Want more? The full 100-mark premium worksheet on balanced diet goes deeper into vitamins and minerals, fibre and water, and how nutritional needs change from person to person. A complete lesson bundle with the extension pack is also available.
