Why is this so important? This means that high-glycemic food that our children eat all the time cause damage that is likely to lead to chronic degenerative disease, when they are adults. Especially when you combine this with the fact that most children do not get the antioxidant protection that they need to eat several servings of fruits and vegetables. Its a double whammy, increased damage and reduced protection. Damage controlWhat types of foods cause this damage? There are many common foods kids who are very high on the glycemic index scale.

For a start, high-sugar cereals, waffles and pancakes with plenty of syrup and white toast with jam are very high glycemic. He was not only desserts that are the problem. Products made mainly from refined grains and white flour is just as bad. Things like white bread, macaroni and cheese, crackers and hot dog buns. You can go a long way in protecting your children’s current and future health by switching to whole grain cereals and bread and get more fruits and vegetables in their diet. It’s common sense things that people have known for a long time. My hope in writing this article is that understanding a little more about the cause of healthy foods that are so necessary to help motivate people to act.

To be realistic, the food choice is all about balance. Its not going to kill you eat bad and then.

You just need to understand that all of the risk. The more you or your children make poor food choices more damage you allow to accumulate and the higher your risk will be problems later in life. Act now to instill a thoughtful selection of dishes in your children’s behavior. Proud moment I want to end with a brief history. Last week, my 9 year old son came to work with me and we had lunch in our small cafeteria. Menu choices that day were a turkey sandwich, pepperoni pizza, soup and salad bar. I told him he could have anything he wanted, and I was very happy when he chose the salad bar. Its not that he does not like pizza or sandwiches with turkey, but he made a good choice on his own, because he really loves salad.
