Healthy Eating for Families: 4 Tips Every Parent Needs to Know
Hey there, parents!
Did you know that according to the CDC, fewer than 1 in 10 children and adults eat the recommended amount of vegetables each day? 😳 And only 4 in 10 children eat enough fruit! It’s no wonder so many of us are confused about what “healthy eating” even means these days.
The reality is, fruits and vegetables are jam-packed with the essential vitamins and minerals that help our bodies (and minds) feel their best. Without enough of these foods, our kids can’t thrive the way they deserve to.
But the stakes are even higher than just getting enough nutrients. Research shows that an obese 2-year-old has a whopping 75% chance of being obese at 35. For a 19-year-old, that number jumps to 88%. Let that sink in. The habits we build with our kids now can directly impact their health for the rest of their lives.
And here’s the thing: building healthy habits doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, we’re going to show you just how simple (and fun!) it can be for your whole family.
Join Us for a FREE Nutrition Talk!
Let’s break through the confusion and get you on track to feeding your kids the healthy foods they need in a way that’s both easy and sustainable. Our upcoming nutrition talk will give you 4 tips for making family nutrition simple—because yes, it can be that easy!
During the event, you’ll learn how to:
- Plan balanced meals and snacks so you know your kids are getting the nutrients they need.
- Discover different cooking methods that make preparing healthy foods quick and fun (without turning your kitchen into a battlefield).
- Get the kids involved in cooking and meal planning, turning healthy eating into a family affair instead of a chore.
We understand that it’s not always easy to navigate the world of nutrition, but that’s exactly why this talk is so important. Obese children are highly likely to become obese adults, which opens the door to long-term health problems and a diminished quality of life. It’s never too early to start building healthy habits, and we’re here to help you make it happen.
