Healthy Grocery List Tips


 
What should your meals look like?
  • Half of your plate should be fruits and vegetables. The more colors the better.
  • One quarter of your plate should be for protein
  • One quarter of your plate should be for your whole grain carbohydrates (whole- wheat pasta, whole wheat- couscous, whole- wheat bread, etc.)
One of the most common questions that you hear from young athletes and their parents is how can he/she improve their performance on the field, court, or in the classroom.  One of the best answers to this question is nutrition.  When people, students or parents, start making better choices when it comes to nutrition, their performance at work, at school, or at practice will improve.  Food is the fuel source for our body.  The higher grade fuel you put into your body, the more efficient you will be.  Food impacts everybody on a daily basis, and the more information we have to inform us of better decisions, the better off we all are!
