You Really Are W hat You Eat I : Giving your child a good lunch will make for a better day Ask A Garden City Hospital Health Expert More than a third of school-aged children in the United States are currently considered obese, a 15% increase since 1980. Of course they would prefer to eat marshmallows, cupcakes and gummy bears every day, but as parents it’s our job to send them off to school with meals which are good for both the body and the mind. Dr. Sikorski Family Practice Physician, and Garden City Hospital Family Medicine Health Expert, Pr. Robert Sikorski, provides us with some valuable tools for building a better lunch box. Q; My husband and I both work, and always try to pack lunches that are good for our children, but sometimes there’s just not enough time. I feel they prefer us to give them money to buy lunch, which causes me to worry they’re only eating junk food, How can I do a better job of ensuring they will eat well? A: Buying lunch at school may be the first time kids get to call the shots about which foods they’ll eat. Luckily, school lunches have improved over the years, both in taste and nutrition, with many serving healthier dishes such as grilled chicken sandwiches and salads. However, the typical school cafeteria still offers a mix of less nutritious options often available a la carte or in the vending machine. Use school lunches as a chance to steer your children toward good choices. Explain how a nutritious lunch will give them energy to finish the rest of the school day and enjoy after school activities. There really is no substitute for fresh meals made at home. Try preparing some items in advance when you have more time. Instead of sandwiches everyday, homemade stew, soup and chili can be frozen in single serving containers and provide a warm hearty meal that anchors a limch. I place the emphasis on homemade because pre-packaged lunches are loaded with fat aiid sodium, and you can often make your own for less money. Use microwavable, paraben-free containers, and move those items from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before. Most school cafeterias have Do you know microwave ovens for warming and reheating. I cannot stress enough how important good nutrition is for a what Mike likes? developing child. Try to get in the routine of “creating” good lunches. Involve your children and explain why you’re giving them certain combinations of foods. Also, let them make decisions between several choices.
