Top 5 Tips for Eating Healthier 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. 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! 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. 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. 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.

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

5 Healthy Tips for Feeding Your Kids from SuperKids Nutrition Founder

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!
