Why Can't We Feed School Kids Good Food?

-
This is more complicated than it might sound. Yes, every Mom wants her kids to eat healthy food at school, so why doesn't the School Board do something to change the food. First of all, just as important is that you provide food that kids want to eat. A few years ago we tried the fruit and vegetable diet at public intercity schools and found that the kids didn't eat the lunches. So what's the answer? I think we should change up the program. I know even though Pizza for lunch is probably the most popular meal in any school, the ready-made, heat-and-serve type of frozen pizza that most schools are serving is loaded with sodium and probably not very good for anyone with a weight problem. I'd like to see more fresh food being served. I would like to see, just a trial, of course, in a few school, baked chicken served cold, with a macaroni salad, made with an olive oil based mayo, tomatoes, and celery. And then a potato salad made the same way. Serve more ice tea and lemona...

  How many times have you given up on exercise? If you’re like most of us, probably more times than you can count. There are plenty of reasons we find it hard to stick to an exercise program. Sometimes we give up for reasons beyond our control – An illness, for example, or an injury. Sometimes there’s no particular reason.

Find out why you give up on exercise and what you can do about it. You Give Up Because You’re Not Losing Weight If you exercise to lose weight, it’s not terribly surprising that you expect to l...

This is interesting, I just read that low levels of vitamin D in your system can actually keep overweight people from losing weight. O.K., we know now that we can get vitamin D from the sun, but that dark skinned people and even people with a dark tan won't absorb as much "D" as light skinned people. Vitamin D from the sun is a bonus anyway, the sun can't give you too much. So now your diet and supplements will become important. The body needs vitamin D, it's important for weight loss, but also helps to ward off a long list of diseases including cancer. So how do we put more vitamin D in our diet? Diary products and eggs all contain "D". Some fish and vegetables contain Vitamin D and supplements in the vitamin section of your drug store or grocery store. Food is really the best way for your body to absorb any vitamin. There are foods like salmon and egg yolks that contain "D" naturally and some like milk and cheese that are fortified with vit...
