  • The Hidden Costs of Supersizing
    The Hidden Costs of Supersizing “Do you want to combo?” “Do you want to Biggie?” “You can super size the large for only 15 more cents” We have all heard these tempting questions but what you haven’t heard is that this is the food establishment’s way of increasing their profits while leaving you with the feeling that you have “gotten a deal”. These small increases in price add more calories and fat, which contribute to overeating and obesity. Have you really ”Gotten a Deal”?

This 167 calorie-per-day increase works out to approximately an extra 17 pounds of body fat every year (given no change in metabolism or activity level). • Overweight and Obesity affect 61% of American adults. • Obesity rates doubled in children over the last 20 years. • Type 2 Diabetes, largely due to obesity, poor diet, & physical inactivity rose 50% between 1999 & 2000. • Obesity is 2nd only to smoking as the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., and is estimated to cause 300,000 premature deaths each year.

  • Family Meals -The Real Value Meal
    Family Meals -The Real Value Meal Let’s do dinner. Have regular “Family Meal Days”—A Day to Eat Dinner with Your Children. Eating dinner with your kids is a simple and effective way to stay involved in your children’s lives. Families that eat together regularly stay closer and more connected. Why are family meals important? More frequent family meals are associated with less substance use, fewer depressive symptoms, later initiation of sexual activity, less suicide involvement and better grades. Meals are a great time to play “follow the leader” - set a smart example. Eating with parents is also an important factor for the nutrition and eating habits of adolescents. Research shows that family meals are associated with higher intakes of fruits, vegetables and dairy products. Adolescents who report frequent family meals are also more likely to have a healthy weight and less likely to develop disordered eating habits. With today’s busy lifestyles it can be a challenge to eat meals together. These tried and true strategies can make it easier. Make family mealtime a priority. Schedule family meals for the week and write them on the calendar. If you know you can’t have a family dinner, make a date for a family breakfast. Keep it simple. Tuna sandwiches with sliced fruit can be made in minutes. Pasta and bottled spaghetti sauce with salad and bread make a great 30 minute meal. Get kids involved. Have them help with washing fruits and vegetables, setting the table or stirring ingredients. As they get older, ask them to be responsible for making one meal a month.
