Did You Know? 2535 Major Mackenzie Drive West in Vaughan / 905.553.5527 16655 Yonge Street in Newmarket / 905.898.1844 Kid’s Health Month Tips! 1. Are your children getting the right portions? A child should have one portion of protein and one of carbohydrates at every meal. A portion of food is equal to the size of a child’s clenched fist or the palm of their hand and a child should eat four to seven portioned meals daily. 2. Avoid processed foods such as: conventional cookies, chips, and boxed cereals. They often contain hydrogenated fats as well as refined sugar and flour. Hydrogenated fats have been found to damage cellular membranes–a very important consideration for growing children. Refined sugar and flour consumption can create unwanted blood-sugar spikes! 3. Freshen up their diet! Ensure your child’s diet focuses on fruits, vegetables and whole grain products. Food in its natural, unrefined state contains the valuable nutrients, including live enzymes and fibre, necessary for playing, learning and growing. 4. Stock your cupboards with healthy snacks! Make sure that there are healthy snacks in the fridge such as nuts, seeds, dried cranberries, raisins, frozen yogurt, cheese and vegetable sticks. 5. Prevent childhood obesity and type 2 diabetes by limiting your child’s sugar intake. Avoid products containing high-fructose corn syrup, especially soda pop, sugary sports drinks and candies. Children are naturally born with incomplete digestive systems! While in utero, they get their nutrition from the umbilical cord. After birth, they are meant to consume mostly breast milk - and for a much longer period than is typical amongst Canadian moms. Probiotics as a supplement help to populate the digestive tract with healthy bacteria that may be in deficit due to an early introduction of dairy, wheat, soy, and other potential allergens - as well as with the consumption of processed and low-quality foods. Other factors that may contribute to poor digestive health are: minimal or no breastfeeding, mom’s personal dietary choices or courses of antibiotics from a young age.

Your Health Matters.

Free Run Omega 3 EggsA healthy breakfast sets a solid foundation for a great day at school. Complete protein is important for balancing blood sugar, helping to maintain balanced energy and concentration levels throughout the day. Protein supports alertness, attention, motivation, memory and problem solving.

Sweet Potatoes These vibrant orange nutritional powerhouses provide all essential amino acids, lots of beta carotene and vitamin C, as well as key B vitamins that boost energy production in brain cells.

BlueberriesThese wee drops of blue goodness are not only sweet and juicy but are highly nutritious. They’re packed with valuable vitamins, minerals and powerful antioxidants. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, which help protect the brain, supporting motor skill development and learning capacity.

Fermented FoodsHealthy gut bacteria helps maintain the protective lining of our digestive tract, a strengthened immune system, and may have a significant effect on our behaviour (our gut is often referred to as our ‘second brain’). Fermented foods contain plenty of the ‘good’ bacteria your child needs to thrive!

When sending kids back to school, setting them up for success is top of mind.
