Healthy Eating Tips for Children and Adolescents

A list of the top ten nutrition tips for children and adolescents was recently published on vitadidonna.it and gives some great practical advice.

Their top ten list is:
1. Enjoy your food
2. Breakfast is a very important meal
3. Eat lots of different foods
4. Base your food on carbohydrates
5. Eat fruits and vegetables at each meal
6. Fat facts
7. Snack attack
8. Quench your thirst
9. Care for your teeth
10. Get moving

Some of you may have shuddered when you read #4, but read the article for a full explanation. I really think this list applies to adults too. It's a pretty simple and straightforward list of simple things you can do to improve your health. And yes, that includes #4 too.
