Story Behind The Game:  The news going around is that an invasion of unhealthy french fries is attacking the human race.  The only thing to stop them is to find that one hero that can save the world from becoming unhealthy.

Objective of the Game:  The purpose of the game is to show how to be healthy.

The Health Lesson:  There are many things that we researched to help us learn to be healthy. Some things we researched were that humans are heterotopic which means we get our energy from eating food.  Carbohydrates and fats are used as fuel to keep the body going. When you exercise you burn carbohydrates then fats. Vitamin E, which is in fruits, is good for the skin. Going on runs will keep the body fit, in shape, and maintains good health. Food with grain are much healthier to eat than food with refined grain. Fruits are rich in vitamins and fiber so they are one of the best eating choices for your body. To stay healthy, the body needs at least an hour of exercise a day and eating healthy food choices. Humans get energy when they eat healthy foods so we need to make sure we choose the right food eat so we can have energy.
