Treat Your Kids (and Yourself) to Healthful Foods

The third National Health and Nutrition Survey was a study carried out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. They studied 33,000 people over the course of six years.
The researchers examined what families ate. They determined that adults living in families with children ate far more fatty foods than adults living alone or with only other adults, and consumed an additional 4.9 grams of fat daily.

The calories consumed were about the same in both groups. But the group of families living with children ate far more pizza, ice cream, bacon, and cheese. The lead researcher, Dr. Helena H. Laroche, a professor at the University of Iowa, concluded that to achieve healthy nutrition the focus must be on the entire family.

If you have kids, limit their fatty foods. Buy food that is good for you - it'll be good for them, too.
