Book Description

For the legions of harried moms who have tossed in the dishtowel on cooking healthy meals (or any meals!), the easiest-ever guide for bringing super nutrition back to the kitchen. Getting dinner on the table night after night can be a challenge. So it’s no surprise that busy moms often rely on fast food, takeout, and convenience meals like macaroni & cheese, chicken nuggets, and fries. The kids love it but the drawback is that little twinge of guilt moms feel every time they feed their family another not-so-healthy meal. At the end of the day, many children end up with a poor diet high in sugar, saturated fat, and calories … a major factor in the rising rates of obesity. Finally, here are realistic guidelines designed to give families a healthy meal makeover. The Moms lay out a 5-Step Meal Makeover Plan, explaining how to market good nutrition to kids, establish food rules, and make life easier in the kitchen. In The Best of the Bunch chapter they reveal which brands of kid convenience foods–hot dogs, frozen pizza, and more–are the best tasting and most nutritious ones out there. The Moms show how to stock a healthy pantry and whip up delicious anytime meals using pantry staples. They even serve up 120 reworked recipes for family favorites such as Fast-as-Boxed Macaroni & Cheese, Squishy Squash Lasagna, Cheesy Broccoli Soup, Sweet Potato Fries, and Chocolate Pudding with Toppers.

What's it like to feed your family well? Is it a constant fight to get healthy foods into them? Are you confused about what foods are actually the best for your kids and make up a healthy balanced diet? Is your child a picky eater?

Discover: *How to get more natural, simple foods into children's diets *How to encourage kids to make healthier decisions around food *Kid-friendly and healthy snack suggestions *Gain insight to how school lunch programs really work and the "business" of health and food for kids *Which foods lead to health and well-being and which ones lead to disease *Critical and often missing information about the effect of diet on children's teeth, digestive issues and other health concerns This book is also about opening the dialogue about the relationship between food and health and keeping the conversation going so you can become more informed to help your kids grow up to be happy, healthy, and develop a positive relationship to food. This is not another cookbook or radical diet program that no human can stick with. Instead, this is a guide for finding balance and moving towards healthier options for our kids, our families, our communities and for our environment. Note from the author: "As a mother, researcher and former school teacher I believe that the health and well-being of our children is vital. We don't want to see them in pain and just as importantly they are our future! With so many children experiencing health issues ranging from obesity to diabetes to rapid tooth decay the connection between nutrition and health has never been more important to examine and consider. I wrote Healthy Kids, Health Diet to give parents a handbook for feeding their families well, offer clear and unbiased information to make informed decisions, and provide support along the journey." Sue Kuivanen "Healthy Kids, Healthy Diets" is the culmination of interviewing numerous health experts, field work, research, and reading over 100 health books. If you read only a few books on health and nutrition for kids, be sure to include this one!
