Parents are strongly
encouraged to encourage
your child/ children to include
more fruits and vegetables in
their daily diet.
Children who suffer from poor
nutrition during the brain's
most formative years score
much lower on tests of
vocabulary, reading
comprehension, arithmetic,
and general knowledge
(Brown & Pollitt, 1996).
Healthy Eating “Overweight and obesity are not just cosmetic issues—
they are health issues. Childhood weight problems can lead to elevated blood pressure and cholesterol, joint problems, Type II diabetes, gallbladder disease, asthma, depression, and anxiety (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2001).”

Eating well-balanced meals

vitamins and minerals
that will make you

•Studies have shown that

Overweight children
“ Severely overweight children miss four times as much school as normal-weight children. They often suffer from depression, anxiety disorders, and isolation from their peers (Schwimmer, Burwinkle, & Varni, 2003). These problems often continue into adulthood, with 70–80 percent of overweight children and adolescents becoming obese adults.”

Increase physical activity during family time. Physical activity increases concentration; and
improved math, reading, and writing test scores (Symons, Cinelli, James, & Groff, 1997).
Higher academic achievement correlated strongly with higher levels of fitness at each of the three grade levels measured (grades 5, 7, and 9). (California Department of Education, 2001)
The relationship was greatest in mathematics: Girls in the higher fitness levels demonstrated higher achievement than males at similar fitness levels (2004).
