Diet Tip of the Month

Try to eat throughout the day. Four small meals a day is better than one large one. Skipping meals lowers your metabolic rate. This is your body's way of trying to store food energy (in the form of fat) in response to what it sees as starvation.

Hot Summer Tips for 5 A Day

The President of the United States recently outlined a new Health and Fitness Initiative. (FMI see http://www.healthierus.gov) His four points are:
1. Exercise.
2. Eat a nutritious diet.
3. Take advantage of preventative screenings that can save your life.
4. Avoid tobacco, drugs and excess alcohol.

For point number two he emphasizes the importance of consuming five servings of fruits and vegetables per day. There is no better time than summer to begin increasing your fruit and vegetable consumption. Fresh fruits and vegetables are in plentiful supply and lowest in cost in grocery stores and farmers’ markets across the United States.

Here are some cool delicious ideas and tips to help you jumpstart your fruit and vegetable consumption this summer:

  1. Frozen bananas - cut banana in half; dip banana in nonfat, light vanilla yogurt and then roll in low-fat granola cereal; freeze and enjoy! 

  2. Fruit pop cup - mix fruit and 100% fruit juice in disposable 3-5 ounce cup. Freeze; serve with a spoon. 

  3. Entree salad - use leftovers such as cooked rice and roasted chicken to make a huge entree salad. Serve with toasted whole grain bread. 

  4. Melon - keep bowls and platters of cool, sliced melons in your refrigerator. Most melons only contain around 9 or 10 calories per ounce. 

  5. Cold corn - the next time you cook corn on the cob, make extra and refrigerate for another day. Use sliced cold corn on the cob for salads and salsa. Did you know that you can zap an ear of corn in the microwave in just 3 minutes? Make sure you remove the husk and silk and then wrap each ear individually in plastic wrap.
