3 Eating healthy foods and getting plenty of physical activity are important for the rest of your life! USDA s MyPlate icon shows that we should eat foods each day from all 5 food groups. Georgia 4-H wants to be sure you understand the importance of being healthy. The 4-H Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyles curriculum addresses five topics from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans: 1. Eating a balanced diet, including a variety of foods 2. Eating right-sized portions 3. Increasing fruit and vegetable intake 4. Increasing physical activity 5. Decreasing consumption of high-sugar beverages 3
4 WATCH YOUR PORTIONS! The amount of food you eat is called your PORTION SIZE. It may be different from the SERVING SIZE listed on the food package. If you are interested in calories and nutrition, it pays to check out how many servings are in a food package and what the serving size is considered by the manufacturer. In the cartoon, the serving size is 1 ounce, but the container holds 12 ounces The food has 40 calories per serving. If you think it s a low calorie food, think again if you are planning It s good. And only 40 calories per serving! to eat the entire container! That would be 12 x 40 What I can t figure out is how they managed to calories, or 480 calories in the total container, which fit 12 servings in this little cup. in this case isn t very big! Many of the fruit drinks on the market contain more than 1 serving per container. READ THE LABEL to be a well-educated consumer! MyPlate recommends a certain amount of food each day based on the number of calories you need to be healthy. Food labels are based on 2,000 calories, so we ll use this as our example. If you eat 2,000 calories a day, the recommendation is that you eat the following amounts of food: 3 cups of milk 5.5 ounces of protein 2 cups of fruit 2.5 cups of vegetables 6 ounces of grains Question: Why does a king size candy bar have fewer calories than a regular size candy bar? Answer: It doesn t! It has fewer calories PER SERVING but it has 2 servings you are supposed to share it with a friend, or save half for the next day! TO DO AT HOME: How many glasses of milk do you need to drink each day? You need 3 cups of milk a day, but one cup is only 8 ounces. Many kitchen glasses hold more than 8 ounces. Do yours? To find out, do this experiment at home. Measure 8 ounces of water using a liquid measuring cup. Pour the water into one of your favorite kitchen glasses. If there is more room left in the glass, measure out 2 ounces more and pour it in. Continue, keeping track of how much water you add, until the glass is as full as you would usually make it. My favorite glass holds ounces How many cups does your glass hold? How many of your favorite glasses of milk do you need each day to get 3 cups of milk? Check your math! See bottom of page 6 for an example of how to calculate this. 4
5 EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGGIES! Fill half of your plate with vegetables and fruits at each meal! You can eat them whole, chopped, raw or cooked, dry, frozen, fresh or canned. Eating a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables each day provides your body with energy, fiber, vitamin C and other nutrients you need to stay healthy and fight off diseases. Put a by the fruit and vegetable ideas that you already do. Put a by the ideas that you plan to start doing to help you get more colorful fruits and vegetables: Peel and eat a banana as a snack. Eat applesauce (sprinkle cinnamon on top). Drink 4 ounces (½ cup) of 100 percent fruit juice. Cut or peel an orange as a snack. Order a pizza with lots of colorful vegetable toppings. Eat a side salad topped with tomatoes, carrots, and other colorful vegetables. Choose vegetables as a side dish more often than French fries in the cafeteria. Top grilled chicken sandwiches or hamburgers with lettuce and tomatoes. Try a new fruit or vegetable side dish at school or a restaurant. Dip baby carrots, broccoli, sliced cucumbers, or celery in ranch dressing. Choose a baked sweet potato as a side dish instead of a regular baked potato. Ask for at least two vegetable toppings on your deli sandwich. ADD IT UP! How many fruits did you eat today? How many vegetables did you eat today? Use the ideas in the checklist above to make sure you get at least 2 fruits and 3 vegetables today! Georgia 4-H has always been GREEN! What is your favorite GREEN vegetable?

6 MAKE YOUR DRINKS COUNT! The important thing to remember when choosing a beverage is to MAKE YOUR DRINKS COUNT! Think about how much you are drinking and what nutrients you are getting for your calories. Foods and beverages that contain calories but no vitamins or minerals are considered empty calorie foods. Remember to read labels on foods and beverages to make a healthy choice! Compare the labels from these drinks: Which one gives you the most calcium? Which one gives you the most Vitamin C? Which one gives you the most Vitamin A? Make a Fruit Smoothie! (Ask an adult before using kitchen utensils and appliances.) TAKE OUT: Blender, measuring cup, 4 glasses or cups, 4 straws (optional) Step 1: Fill blender with 1 cup of pineapple juice. Add 1 ½ cups vanilla low-fat yogurt (or any flavor). Blend on high until smooth. Step 2: Choose three of the fruits below to add to the blender. Be sure to wash fresh fruits before adding to the smoothie! 1 banana ½ cup strawberries (fresh or frozen) ½ cup pineapple (canned or fresh) ½ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen) ½ cup peaches (canned, frozen or fresh) ½ cup raspberries (fresh or frozen) Step 3: Add 4 5 ice cubes. Cover and blend on high until smooth. Step 4: Pour into glasses or cups and enjoy! Makes 4 one-cup servings. Refrigerate any leftover smoothie.

7 BE ACTIVE EVERY DAY! Being active is healthy and fun. It makes you feel good and gives you lots of energy. It s also a great way to hang out with your friends. Some types of activities require you to be more active than others, like running and jumping. These activities use the large muscles in your arms and legs.
