Take some time to STOP and look around . To Snack or Not to Snack Registered Dietitian-Nutritionists across North America are promoting the importance of nutrition as a determinant of your daily health. Healthy eating is important regardless of your age, gender and life style. Whether you are a busy mom or an active teen, all your nutritional needs can be met in ways that suit your individual eating habits. Eating well doesn't mean you have to give up the foods you love.
Food is pleasure.
Healthy eating is the average of what you eat over time - not one meal or one day's intake. Make small changes slowly. For example, you can increase the variety of your meals by preparing one new recipe per month - the average family rotates around only 10 recipes. If you need to increase the fibre content of your diet, sprinkle a little bran on your regular cereal or mix your favourite fruit into the pancake batter. Small changes can go a long way to spicing up variety.
