7 Who is Responsible? Don t depend on the experts When doctors treat children they make parents sign waivers consenting to treatment and assuming responsibility So, parents are ultimately responsible for their children s health You Are!

8 Our Three Areas of Concern Basic nutrition for health and fitness How to protect kids from from infectious diseases Ideas for promoting general physical, mental and emotional wellbeing

9 Nutrition in America A typical American only consumes 1-1/2 servings of vegetables and no fruit on an average day America is the fattest nation on the planet Americans spend 90% of their money on processed foods

10 Children and Weight The percentage of overweight children has more than doubled since 1980 The percentage of overweight adolescents has more than tripled since 1980 Overweight young people are more likely to become overweight or obese adults

11 Nutrition Affects Mental and Emotional Health Juvenile delinquents are usually hypoglycemic Putting them on good diet kept them out of trouble with the law Good nutrition makes children calmer and more co-operative, which makes parenting easier

12 Refined Sugar Contributes to: Obesity Tooth decay and loss of bone density Reduced immune response (catching colds and flu more easily) Hyperactivity, attention deficient disorder and increased behavioral problems Nervous disorders, irritability, lethargy, nervousness Yeast infections

13 Taming the Candy Monster Don t keep refined sugar and other refined carbohydrates in the house Provide adequate protein and dietary fats (this kills sugar cravings) Provide natural treats and use sugar alternatives

14 Healthy Sugar Substitutes Fresh fruits Xylitol Stevia Agave nectar Freeze-dried sugar cane juice Raw, unfiltered honey Real maple syrup (grade B or C)

15 Licorice Root Helps balance blood sugar levels and reduce cravings for sugar Great remedy for kids (and adults) who are sugar addicts Anti-inflammatory, antiviral and soothing

16 Kids Need Fats Needed for brain and nervous system health Necessary for some hormones and immune functions Reduce sugar cravings Needed for cell membranes Preferred heart fuel Keep skin soft Keep body warm

17 Healthy Fats Cold-pressed olive oil Coconut oil Avocados Fish oils Krill oil Organic grass-fed butter Nuts (walnuts, Brazil nuts) Seeds (flax, hemp, pumpkin, sesame) Deep ocean fish (mackerel, sardines, anchovies, albacore tuna, etc.), wild salmon

20 Breakfast is Important Kids who eat a breakfast with good fats and proteins perform better in school than kids who start the day with high carbohydrate breakfast cereals Adding fat (butter, cream, flax seed oil) to whole grain breakfast cereals helps to balance blood sugar

26 Germ Phobia Our culture has become germ phobic because of the belief that germs alone are the cause of disease The body s immune system has to be exposed to germs to learn how to fight infection Over sterilization of the home increases risk of asthma and allergies

27 Antibiotics Are overused Are ineffective against viral infections (cold and flu), most earaches and most respiratory problems Cause overgrowth of yeast which weakens the immune system Should be reserved for serious bacterial infections

28 Surface Immunity The Activia commercials are right 70% of your immunity is in your intestines Probiotics (friendly bacteria) are vital to a healthy immune system Probiotics occur naturally in cultured foods like yogurt, kiefer and natural pickles
