Yesssss! We will keep up the GOOD work! “Research shows that receiving free or reduced-price school lunches reduces food insecurity, obesity rates, and poor health. In addition, school meal nutrition standards positively impact student food selection and consumption, ESPECIALLY FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.”* Studies have shown that school meals are generally healthier than the food students bring from home. That said, there is plenty of room for improvement of school meals, especially the main dish portion, which is nearly always meat or cheese. The goal at Coalition for Healthy School Food is to help schools move in the direction of more plant-based (vegan) entrees.

Health coaching often fails if there’s not culinary coaching because “At the end of the day, someone has to make dinner. Someone has to plan the meals, shop, cook, and clean up.” But instead of making it “hard work,” once taught how to batch cook and to use simple recipes and ingredients, home cooking is more time efficient than take out or eat out meals and infinitely healthier and tastier.#culinarymedicine #womenexecutives #lifestylemedicine
“Cooking skills, I learned through my research, also play a huge role in shaping food choices, diet quality, and diet-related disease risk. As a society, we’ve largely stopped teaching people how to cook. If you don’t know how to cook an eggplant, or fish, or lentils, you won’t purchase them, and you certainly aren’t turning them into a meal. Too often, cooking skills are left out of the conversation about how to improve diets” kudos to Amy Hanus at Ardmore Institute of Health, Timothy S.

Should processed foods be on school menus? 🤔 School food has changed exponentially over the years, as focus has shifted more towards children’s health. 💚 Along with these changes, processed foods have gained a bad reputation. While this is sometimes warranted, it’s not always the case, so it's important to distinguish which processed foods are healthy - and which are not. Learn more in our recent blog. ⬇️ https://hubs.ly/Q02B3-HP0

Why should we promote plant-based eating on campus?🌱 Our Green Food Experience (GFE) aims to show the benefits of plant-based eating and helps students curate a tasting event on campus with fellow students and friends. Promoting healthy, plant-based eating based on whole foods helps to: - educate many people about nutrition and its impact on health and the environment - encourage students to be aware of what they eat and how they can promote their health through nutrition - offer more diverse menu options to meet different dietary needs and preferences - encourage people to try new foods - manage food costs for universities, without cutting down on quality and taste It’s clear that we need to change our food systems and the way we eat, and by encouraging plant-based eating on campus we can reach many people and initiate a transformation to more sustainability, health and enjoyment. Do we need to say any more? Head to our GFE page to learn about it: https://lnkd.in/egkyZ42M #GreenFoodExperience #ShareFoodOpenMinds #PlantBasedEating #Campuslife #PlanetaryHealth

🍎🥦🧒 Food marketing to children is a crucial topic in today's society. Young people are constantly bombarded with advertisements promoting unhealthy food options, making it challenging for them to make healthy choices. 🚫🍔🍟 Marketing targets children through catchy jingles, colorful packaging, and popular cartoon characters, often leading them to fall for food scams disguised as nutritious options. It is important for parents and caregivers to educate children on the importance of choosing healthy food options and to be aware of deceptive marketing tactics. 🧠💡 By teaching children to read labels, understand nutritional information, and choose whole foods over processed snacks, we can empower them to make informed decisions when it comes to their diet. Let's work together to ensure that our children have access to and choose healthy food options. 🌟👧👦 #FoodMarketing #HealthyChoices #YoungPeople #MarketingTargets #FoodScams

From colorful fruits to wholesome vegetables, the kindergarten section was buzzing with excitement as young minds discovered the joy of healthy eating. 🚫 Understanding Unhealthy Choices: In parallel, we delved into the world of less nutritious options, emphasizing the need to make mindful choices. Through interactive sessions, we empowered our students to differentiate between foods that fuel their bodies and those that might be less beneficial.
