Since nearly all moms are interested in healthy eating for their families, I thought I would post this announcement about a recently published book.
Make Mealtime Easier for the Whole Family! Today we have an abundance of options when it comes to the food we eat. But all foods are not created equal. In fact,
some of the foods marketed to kids should be labeled “edible, but void of nourishment.” Getting your kids to make healthy choices can be tough.
New York Times best selling author, Dr. Don Colbert recent book, EAT THIS AND LIVE: For Kids provides a guide for parents that help create a healthy lifestyle for their
child. Included is a list of ‘kid-friendly’ food items from the grocery store and food guide to many popular family restaurants.
About Eat This and Live: For Kids
In Eat This and Live: For Kids (Siloam; $17.00; September 7, 2010), Dr. Don Colbert provides a road map to help parents navigate the often-treacherous territory of
feeding their children, from infants to toddlers, preschoolers, and elementary aged children. Based on the key principles for healthy eating in Dr. Colbert’s New York Times best seller, The Seven Pillars of Health, this practical guidebook for parents includes “Dr. Colbert Approved” foods and restaurant menu choices, along with helpful tips, charts, and nutrition information that will make it easier for you to raise healthy kids.
Included are picks of the healthiest “kid-friendly” food items in your grocery store and many popular fast food and casual dining restaurants. As a result, this is an extremely practical guidebook that teaches parents how to help their children adopt a dietary lifestyle that will set him or her on lifelong path of well-being. The goal is not to make eating a chore for your child or more work on the parent’s part, but to enable the exchange of old habits for new ones.
