Notes for my interview on Trey Radel’s Daybreak Show on Fox 92.5 this morning<\/p>\n
Q: What are some ways to get kids actually eating healthier?<\/strong><\/p>\n Take kids to a local fish market, talking about fish being heart-healthy for mom and dad, teach them what is caught locally; have them pick out fresh local fish for the family to eat<\/p>\n Teach kids about grilling and get them to choose veggies to grill; make shish-kabobs together.<\/p>\n Teach kids to cook a few healthy things, over the course of the summer. Talk about the best choices on restaurant and fast-food menus<\/p>\n Expose kids to the 12 power foods, and asking them to find tasty-sounding recipes that include them: almonds, apples, blueberries, brazil nuts, broccoli, green tea, olive oil, red beans, salmon, spinach, sweet potatoes, wholegrain wheat, yogurt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Increase your kids’ nutritional awareness with these fun ideas.
