The term “Dear” is an old English term that was used to mean “darling” or “beloved”. The informal letter format should not include a title, such as Mr. or Mrs. followed by the last name. Traditionally, the informal letter was written on unlined stationery or paper that was decorated in some way.

Eating healthily and regularly is crucial for maintaining good health and overall well-being. The food we consume provides us with essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that our bodies need to function properly. Eating a balanced diet helps to boost our immune system, support our mental health, and prevent chronic diseases. A typical day for many young people may involve skipping breakfast. For lunch, they might opt for fast food or a pre-packaged meal that is high in salt and preservatives. Dinner may include heavily processed foods such as frozen pizzas or pasta dishes with jarred sauce.
