The food is healthy for you / to you.

The food is healthy for you / to you.

In my language, I feel like 'be healthy to you' is natural but I have seen 'be healthy for you' so I was wondering if there is a meaning difference between to you and for you here or only for you is natural to use? What do you native English speakers think? Thank you so much as usual in advance.
