× My favorite food is thick because it reaches of protein and nutritious.
✓ My favorite food is thick because it is rich in protein and nutritious.
The original uses 'reaches of protein' which is incorrect. Use 'rich in protein' to describe high protein content and 'nutritious' as an adjective. Also include a linking verb 'is' to form a correct predicate. Suggestion: Use 'rich in' or 'high in' + noun to describe nutrient content.
× Also I am a bodybuilder and need calorie intake which don't protein as the Dom dominate.
✓ Also, I am a bodybuilder and need a calorie intake that is high in protein as protein is essential.
The clause 'which don't protein as the Dom dominate' is ungrammatical. 'Which' should refer to 'calorie intake' but the verb and noun forms are wrong. Use a relative clause 'that is high in protein' or 'which contains a lot of protein.' Clarify meaning: 'protein is essential' instead of 'the Dom dominate.' Suggestion: Use 'that is' + adjective phrase or 'which contains' + noun to describe attributes of 'calorie intake.'
× When I was young, I liked chicken porridge because it helped me to recover my energy when I got tired at the weekend.
✓ When I was young, I liked chicken porridge because it helped me recover my energy when I got tired on weekends.
Use past tense consistently (liked, helped). 'Helped me to recover' is acceptable but 'helped me recover' is more natural. Use 'on weekends' rather than 'at the weekend' for habitual occurrences; both are possible but plural 'weekends' fits better in this context. Suggestion: Keep past tense verbs and prefer concise verb patterns like 'helped me recover.'
× My mother cook for the chicken porridge for me when I got sick.
✓ My mother cooked the chicken porridge for me when I got sick.
Subject-verb agreement in past tense: 'mother' requires past form 'cooked', not 'cook.' Remove extraneous preposition 'for' before 'the chicken porridge.' Suggestion: Use simple past for completed actions (cooked) and 'cooked the chicken porridge for me.'
× Absolutely not. I eat same food from January until November.
✓ Absolutely not. I eat the same food from January until November.
Missing definite article 'the' before 'same food.' Also present simple is fine for habitual actions. Add 'the' to specify the particular food habit. Suggestion: Use 'eat the same food' when referring to a specific repeated diet.
× However in December I started to trans change my food into western food such as steak and also BBQ.
✓ However, in December I started to change my diet to Western foods such as steak and barbecue.
'Trans change' is incorrect; use 'change' or 'transition' as a verb. 'Food' is better expressed as 'diet' and 'Western' is capitalized. Use plural 'foods' or uncountable 'food' and 'barbecue' instead of 'BBQ' for formality. Maintain past tense 'started.' Suggestion: Use 'started to change my diet to Western foods' or 'began transitioning to Western foods.'
× Absolutely yes because of I used to love a chicken porridge but now I prefer steak or sushi due to the nutrition facts which consists of a lot of protein and also they help me to build a muscle.
✓ Yes, absolutely. I used to love chicken porridge, but now I prefer steak or sushi because they are high in protein and help me build muscle.
Several errors: 'because of I used to' is ungrammatical—use 'I used to' or 'because I used to.' 'A chicken porridge' should be 'chicken porridge' (no article). 'Due to the nutrition facts which consists' is wrong: use 'because they are high in protein' and 'consist' should agree with plural 'facts' but better to rephrase. 'Build a muscle' should be 'build muscle' without article. Split into clearer sentences and maintain tense. Suggestion: Use 'I used to' for past habit; avoid unnecessary articles with uncountable foods; use 'help me build muscle.'
