  • Eating on the Road for Wrestlers
    EATING ON THE ROAD FOR WRESTLERS Although maintaining good nutrition during travel is challenging, it can be accomplished. Below are some tips to help you choose your meals wisely when away from home. Eating at Fast Food Chains 1. Select grilled, charbroiled, or roasted sandwiches, but make sure to remove the skin. 2. Order lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard, ketchup, relish, or salsa on your sandwich and hold the mayo, oils, and cheese. 3. Avoid ordering the meal combo – it’s usually more than you need! 4. Go for the grilled chicken salads, but ask for low-fat dressing such as vinaigrette on the side. 5. Order a regular hamburger instead of a jumbo or multiple stacked burgers. 6. Skip the sugary sodas, and instead go for skim/low-fat milk, water, or 100% fruit juice. 7. Choose the small yogurt parfait instead of the milkshake or ice cream sundae. 8. Special order your meals! Most establishments will make your meals made to order! 9. Order the 6 inch sub and skip the oil and mayo and double up on the meat and add extra veggies! 10. Select a baked potato instead of French fries and dress it up with salsa, veggies, low-fat butter substitute or low-fat sour cream! 11. Avoid any items that are breaded, fried, have a “secret sauce”, or have multiple layers. These usually have an outrageous amount of fat, cholesterol, and sodium! 12. Know what you are eating- look at the online nutritional information for each fast food restaurant. Eating at Restaurants 1. Do your research ahead of time.

  • FACTS Summary
    Fast Food Advertising: Billions in spending, continued high exposure by youth J U N E 2 0 2 1 Fast-food consumption among youth remains a significant public health concern. The findings in this report demonstrate that fast-food advertising spending increased from 2012 to 2019; youth exposure to TV ads declined, but at a lower rate than reductions in TV viewing times; many restaurants continued to disproportionately target advertising to Hispanic and Black youth; and restaurants did not actively promote healthier menu items. Restaurants must do more to reduce harmful fast-food advertising to youth. B A C K G R O U N D Excessive consumption of fast food is linked to poor diet and weight outcomes among children and teens,1 and consumption of fast food has increased over the past decade.2 On a given day, one-third of children and teens eat fast food, and on those days they consume 126 and 310 additional calories, including more sugary drinks, compared to days they do not eat fast food.3 Moreover, fast food consumption is higher for Hispanic and non-Hispanic Black teens, who also face greater risks for obesity and other diet-related diseases, compared to non-Hispanic White teens. 4, 5 While many factors likely influence frequent fast-food consumption,6-8 extensive fast-food advertising is a major contributor.9 Frequent and widespread exposure to food marketing increases young people’s preferences, purchase requests, attitudes, and consumption of the primarily nutrient- poor energy-dense products promoted.10-12 Fast food is the most frequently advertised food and beverage category to children and teens, representing 40% of all youth-directed food marketing expenditures 13 and more than one-quarter of food and drink TV ads viewed14.
