One size doesn't fit all any more! Maintaining a healthier weight is important for your overall health and well being. Today, nearly 1 in 3 children in America are overweight or obese. “Eat a balanced diet." Have you ever found yourself wondering what that means?

One size fits all…REALLY!!!!!! BEFORE and AFTER--Healthy life…for life Need I say more??? “BALANCED DIET”

CARBOHYDRATES What are carbohydrates? Are there "good" and "bad" carbohydrates? Simple carbohydrates vs. Complex carbohydrates: What is the difference? Carbohydrates are called carbohydrates because the carbon, hydrogen and oxygen they contain are usually in the proportion to form water What is the primary function of carbohydrates?

Are there "good" and "bad" carbohydrates? simple (nicknamed "bad") or complex (nicknamed "good") based on their chemical makeup and what your body does with them Simple Carbohydrates Complex Carbohydrates

“Good" vs “Bad" carbohydrates? Simple Carbohydrates Complex Carbohydrates Corn sweetener Brown Sugar Oatmeal Corn syrupOat bran Dextrose Nuts and Seeds Fructose Most Fruits (strawberries, High-fructose corn syrup blueberries, pears, apples) Fruit juice concentrates Dry Beans and Peas Glucose Fibrous Foods such as: Syrup Whole Wheat Breads Honey Barley Invert sugar Brown Rice Lactose Couscous Maltose Whole Grain Cereals Malt Syrup Wheat Bran Molasses Vegetables (most) Raw sugar Sucrose Sugar SO WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF THESE CARBS???

PROTEINS What do you think about when you hear the word protein? *Proteins are part of every cell, tissue, and organ in our bodies. Protein is found in the following foods: GIRLS AGES Y.O. – 46g BOYS AGES Y.O. – 52g WOMEN AGES g MEN AGES g 1 cup of milk has 8 grams of protein A 3-ounce piece of meat has about 21 grams of protein 1 cup of dry beans has about 16 grams of protein An 8-ounce container of yogurt has about 11 grams of protein

LIPIDS WHAT IN ARE THESE??? HINT: SATURATED… UNSATURATED… CHOLESTEROL…TRIGLYCERIDES contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen but have far less oxygen proportionally than carbohydrates. What do you think???
