Commit to Mealtimes; keep them happy

Parents are responsible for: WHAT foods are offered, WHEN foods are
offered, and WHERE foods are offered.
Children are responsible for: WHICH foods they eat, and
HOW MUCH food they eat

Eat Right When Dining Out
Change your dining out philosophy. "Plan" to be healthy. Control serving sizes. Ask Ask Ask. Remember every little healthy choice counts !
· 1 TBSP butter, mayo, or dressing is ~ 100 calories.
· each bite of a known less healthy choice is ~ 100 calories - so each bite left behind adds up.

What about supplements?
• Consider this:– massive number of Phytochemicals &
antioxidants that can’t yet be duplicated in pill form
– more not always better– Most successful studies ….from food.– 10 IU of vitamin E from food could silence
as many free radicals as 800 IU of Vitamin E in pill form!

Chemical Chaos
The Bottom Line:
Choose Fresh More Often Than Processed
May want to limit these ingredients:
Acesulfame potassiumArtificial colorings:
(blue 1, blue 2, green 3, red 3, yellow 6, citrus red 2, Red 40)
BHAPartially hydrogenated oil
Potassium BromatePropyl gallate
Saccharin Sodium nitrate & nitrite

Artificial SweetnersAspartame (AKA "NutraSweet" )
• Made from amino acids (the building blocks of protein).• No human studies that show aspartame as harmful.• Rat studies – some concern but need more studies • Moderation
Saccharin (AKA “Sweet 'N Low”) ~ the pink packet
• Abnormal fetal development and birth defects in rodents.• Carcinogenic (cancer causing) in rats as well.
Splenda ( AKA Sucralose).Sugar chemically combined with chlorine – safe….
Sugar Alcohols & Tagatose
Acesulfame K & Stevia
