  1. Choose more plant-based proteins – legumes, nuts, seeds and soy products – as your protein source (protein should fill ¼ of your plate). Then choose lean animal protein – poultry and fish. See our protein guide.
  2. Choose whole foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and beans at least 70% of the time instead of highly processed foods, which are low in fiber, phytochemicals and water, contain high amounts of salt and added sugar. Whole foods help you feel full and well fueled!
  3. Have washed, freshly cut vegetables in your fridge and on your countertop when the kids come home from school. Try thinly sliced cucumbers marinated in their favorite dressing, jicama with cilantro bathed in orange juice or purple carrots dipped in hummus.  Track your colorful foodsthat shield your body from cancer.
  4. Make your family’s plates more colorful by adding in your favorite cut up vegetables to brown rice, quinoa, spelt, or amaranth! To start, mix equal portions of brown rice with quinoa and add in chopped and sautéed colorful bell peppers.
  5. Encourage and help your children to get at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day.  This can be done at school, through a team sport, exergaming, biking and/or at home with family. Remember 15+15+15+15 adds up to 60 minutes! Track your activity with the Super Crew fitness tracker.

Happy Halloween!



Straddling the line between fall and winter, plenty and paucity, life and death, Halloween is a time of celebration and superstition. It is thought to have originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off roaming ghosts. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints and martyrs; the holiday, All Saints’ Day, incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before was known as All Hallows’ Eve and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a secular, community-based event characterized by child-friendly activities such as trick-or-treating. In a number of countries around the world, as the days grow shorter and the nights get colder, people continue to usher in the winter season with gatherings, costumes and sweet treats.

Did You Know?

One quarter of all the candy sold annually in the U.S. is purchased for Halloween.

FELIZ DIA DE LA INDEPENDENCIA!

Friday, September 6, 2013

  1. Stock up your refrigerator and pantry with readily available whole foods, so you can make healthful feeding super convenient. If healthy foods are in your home, it will be easier to avoid food struggles with your child. It’s as simple as having a bowl of fruit out on the kitchen counter when your kids gets home from school; if that’s the first thing they see, they will be inclined to grab a piece of fruit rather than grab “junk” food from the pantry.
  2. Plan ahead! Before picking your children up from a long day at school, wash some fresh fruit, and bring it along with a cheese stick or a box of raisins.
  3. Be a positive role model by eating the healthy foods you offer to your kids. Children will be more likely to eat healthy foods if their parents eat it too!
  4. Don’t limit your child’s food choices to your personal preferences. Children may actually enjoy foods you do not particularly like!
  5. Get your kids involved in the kitchen. Let them choose a recipe and then they can help you prepare the meal. Your children will love washing and tearing lettuce, chopping vegetables with plastic knives, and much more!

11 Superfoods to Boost Your Health




Illustrative photo by Flickr user Lawrence OP
We've all heard the buzz about "superfoods" in recent years, but do you know how much of them you need to eat to get benefits, or what they actually do for you? Superfoods are usually classed as those high in antioxidants – molecules which prevent oxidization and can prevent damage to healthy cells. But these 11 super-superfoods all have additional benefits, and are tasty to boot! So have a read, then hit your local health food, market or supermarket to stock up.
1. BLUEBERRIES
WHAT'S IN IT?
 Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, including vitamin C, and also constitute a good source of fiber.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Fiber normalizes bowel movements, lower cholesterol and helps control blood sugar levels, while antioxidants help guard against a range of cancers, heart disease, asthma, arthritis, Alzheimer's and age-related neurological diseases.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Just eat 'em! You can also add them to fruit salads, sprinkle on yogurt or porridge or bake them. Keep a bag in the freezer, so you always have some handy.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? One small handful a day will do wonders.

2. BROCCOLIWHAT'S IN IT? Broccoli is a fantastic source of vitamins K and C, as well as folic acid, calcium and fiber.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Vitamin K keeps your blood healthy and free from clots, while vitamin C fights cancer. Folic acid is highly recommended for pregnant  women and nursing mothers, while calcium strengthens bones and fiber keeps you regular.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Stir fry it with other colorful veggies, or eat it raw with hummus or any other low-fat dip.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? One cup a day, either raw or cooked.

3. BLACK TEAWHAT'S IN IT? Lots of antioxidants and not much else – tea is completely calorie-free.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Tea lowers blood pressure, helps prevent cancer and osteoporosis, lowers risk for stroke, promotes heart health, contributes to your daily fluid needs and possibly even plays a role in preventing sunlight damage to the skin. How's that for the old cuppa?
HOW DO I EAT IT? Brew tea for at least three minutes, unless you're extremely sensitive to caffeine, and add a wedge of lemon or lime and honey to taste.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? The sky's the limit! Just try not to overdo it with the caffeine.

4. SPINACHWHAT'S IN IT? Spinach is high in protein, vitamins A and K, folic acid and is also fiber-rich.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Spinach makes the heart strong, protects against age-related memory loss, and helps with development of unborn babies (great for pregnant women!), among many other benefits.
HOW DO I EAT IT? You can get the benefits of spinach if it's cooked or raw, so chuck it in your favorite salad or whip up a super spinach lasagna.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? Again, one cup will do the trick

Photo by Flickr user I Believe I Can Fry
5. WALNUTSWHAT'S IN IT? Walnuts have more antioxidants than any other nut, and are also brimming with vitamin E. On top of that, they're rich in plant serums and omega 3 oils, and have a very high ratio of polyunsaturated to saturated fats.
WHAT DOES IT DO? The antioxidants in walnuts provide protection against cancer, while vitamin E is good for heart health and the serums and oils work to lower cholesterol. On top of that, walnuts can help guard against both diabetes and depression. Nuts!
HOW DO I EAT IT? If munching on raw walnuts isn't quite your thing, sprinkle crushed nuts on a salad or on top of tasty pesto pasta.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? Certainly not a whole cup full! Just eight shelled walnuts every other day will give you all these benefits.

6. EDAMAME (aka Soy beans)WHAT'S IN IT? Soybeans are one of the best plant sources of protein, as well as having plenty of fiber and a hefty dose of antioxidants.
WHAT DOES IT DO? The humble soybean can improve cholesterol and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, while antioxidants protect us against cancer.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Boil, drain and serve sprinkled with sea salt and lemon, or give traditional hummus a fun twist by replacing the chickpeas with edamame.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? A mere half-cup of these legumes provides a whopping nine grams of fiber, 11 grams of protein plus a hefty dose of antioxidants, for just 120 calories.

Photo by Flickr user massdistraction
7. BANANASWHAT'S IN IT? Bananas are filled with energy-fueling carbohydrates, antioxidants, potassium and vitamin B6.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Perfect for refueling before, during or after exercise, bananas protect cells against damage from free radicals that can cause heart disease and cancer, help lower blood pressure, and promote healthy skin and hair.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Just peel and munch away!
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? As many as you want really, just make sure they're ripe.

8. BRAZIL NUTSWHAT'S IN IT? Brazil nuts are one of the few good sources of selenium, and are also full of essential vitamins, minerals and fiber.
WHAT DOES IT DO? These tasty treats protect against cancer, depression and Alzheimer's disease.
HOW DO I EAT IT? If raw Brazil nuts aren't quite your taste, chop them up and sprinkle on your morning cereal, or grind and add to your favorite salad dressing.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? Two or three nuts a day is enough, without adding unnecessary fat to your diet.

9. KIWI FRUITWHAT'S IN IT? Among the most nutritionally dense fruits, Kiwi is full of antioxidants, as well as potassium, fiber, and vitamins A and E.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Kiwis neutralize the free radicals that damage cells, reducing inflammation and the many connected disease processes. They may also reduce the likelihood of developing asthma and colon cancer, and promote heart health by lowering triglycerides levels and reducing platelet hyperactivity.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Peel and eat as is, or slice into a summer salad.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? Just one kiwi a day will help keep the doctor away!

Photo by Flickr user Davi Ozolin
10. FLAXSEED (aka Linseed)
WHAT'S IN IT?
 The humble Flaxseed is packed with fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins and antioxidants.
WHAT DOES IT DO? Flaxseed fights cancer, and promotes brain food; it's one of the only non-animal sources of Omega-3, and certainly the easiest to digest.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Sprinkle on your morning cereal or yoghurt, or add to salad dressings and pasta sauces.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? Just two teaspoons a day will help you benefit from these tiny nutritional powerhouses. Make sure you grind the seeds so your body can absorb the goodness.

Photo by Flickr user Yvonne L Sweden
And last but certainly not least...
11.   DARK CHOCOLATE
WHAT'S IN IT? According to recent research, chocolate contains more antioxidants, gram-for-gram, than most fruit juices.
WHAT DOES IT DO? The antioxidants protect the body from diseases such as cancer, and help prevent heart conditions. It also increases blood flow to the brain, and let’s not forget - it’s a natural mood-booster.
HOW DO I EAT IT? Enjoy dark chocolate as is for a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, or use in (healthy!) baking.
HOW MUCH DO I NEED? This superfood should be eaten in moderation – just one or two squares a day is enough.

Have a Wonderful Weekend!

Saturday, April 20, 2013



With good planning, you can keep your food costs under control by:
  • Set a food budget so that you know how much you have to spend on the foods you need.
  • Do some meal planning so that you know what’s for dinner and you aren’t tempted to buy fast food at the last minute.
  • Write a grocery list so that you don’t make impulse purchases.
  • Meal plan around the plate: make half the plate fruits and vegetables, one quarter of the plate whole grains, and the last quarter a lean protein.
  • Check out meal time tips and choosemyplate.gov for healthy options.
  • Lean proteins don’t always have to be meat: try a plant-based protein like beans, lentils, or soy.
    • Try making home made bean burgers
    • Cook frozen edamame for your protein source for dinner
  • Pick an inexpensive “go-to meal” that you enjoy once a week –like tacos with veggies and lean ground turkey with salsa, bean-veggie enchiladas or a colorful southwestern bean salad.
  • Kids often beg for treats – choose a healthy snack before you go! Then let them choose foods from the produce aisle, not the candy aisle.
  • Pack snacks for the family. Foods from snack bars or convenience stores can cost lots of money over time.

New Fruit added to our Daily Wonderful Fresh Fruit Selection 

5 Tips to Outsmart Your Junk Food Snack Attack
  • Cut back on snack foods like chips, cookies, sticks and fake veggies that come in bags – they are not real food and trick you into eating too much. Make healthy choices for a powerful body and mind.
  • Choose more fresh fruits, veggies, 100% whole grains, beans and nuts instead!
  • Skip fast foods or choose healthier options like a grilled chicken salad.
  • Stay hydrated! Keep herbal teas, water with lemon, lime or cucumber slices in the fridge and remember to have a glass before eating. This will help you make healthier choices.
  • Remember when you’re hungry reach for super foods like the Super Crew. Choose foods that make you feel and look your best – inside and out!
