Check out this small list of ways we can keep our children healthy! We can also apply these techniques to our own adult lives as well:
- Never skip breakfast (enough said).
- Snack with purpose. Snack to fill the gap between meals, not just because there is nothing else to do. Snack on healthy foods.
- Beware of potion distortion. Use smaller bowls and cups to help portion control.
- Empty calories are consumed by sugary drinks. Watch the calories and fat in drinks as well as food.
- Eat more whole foods. Packaged foods contain high sodium, calories and fat. Eat fresh foods.
- Set the table. Eat together as a family. Cook with your children.
- Kick the sugar habit. So many of the regular foods we eat have sugar...even bread! Cut back on the amount of sugar we allow our children to consume.
