Click Image To Visit Site Barbara Schaffer despaired of ever teaching her daughter Jennifer to eat healthily. Jennifer insisted she hated vegetables and fussed about any meals that did not feature her favorite foods, which included calorie bombs like french fries, hot dogs, hamburgers, and fish sticks. Jennifer’s weight was rising steadily, and she was oftentimes tired and dragging by the end of the school day.

Barbara had tried everything from pleading to insisting that Jennifer stay at the table until the last soggy carrot was eaten, to no avail – until she bought a copy of "Healthy Eating for Kids." It was with some trepidation that Barbara packed the first recipe she tried – a Gobble Gobble Sandwich – into Jennifer’s school lunch. What if she didn’t like it? What if she wouldn’t eat it and went hungry the whole day? But to Barbara’s great relief, the first thing that Jennifer said when she walked in the door after school was, "Mommy, lunch today was great!"

Food is not the only source of bad nutrition for kids. Children today are gulping down massive quantities of carbohydrates and calories in sodas and other syrupy-sweet drinks. "Healthy Eating" contains recipes for ten delicious, nutritious, and low-sugar drinks that will satisfy your child’s thirst in a healthy way. Kick off the morning right with a Citrus Sunrise or help your child’s body grow strong with intriguing green Hulk Juice.
