Yesterday I was honored to speak at a meeting for the foster parents of the South Bay Bright Future Foster Family Agency in Los Angeles. Since it is a requirement that the foster parents prepare three “home-cooked” meals every day, they wanted to ensure they are providing nutritious options.
Some of the topics we discussed included how to make a healthy breakfast on the run, improving lunch choices at school, and appropriate timing of meals. I also brought along my sugary beverage models which are pictured below. They are always a great visual that I like to include so parents can see how much added sugar are in the drinks they give to their children and teens. Â Check out some of the drinks below, are there any that surprise you?
