| Description: | Teens learn that good nutrition can taste good, help them look good and feel great, and ensure they'll have energy to do the things they like. Upbeat text covers the basics of good nutrition, foods that should be consumed sparingly, and ways to use the Food Guide Pyramid and food labels to develop a plan for healthy eating. Interactive activities help teens make simple changes that have big payoffs: plan balanced breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks, despite the challenges of a busy schedule; record and evaluate what they've eaten in a week; and do a diet "makeover" to establish a healthy weight. 24 pages, approx. 8 1/2" x 11". Ages 15-17.
Each workbook comes with a companion Web site that reinforces the same messages through online exercises, bulletin boards, and peer surveys and polls. An online Leader's Guide--also available in a printed version--gives YOU dozens of innovative ways to get young people to adopt strong values and serves as a forum for sharing ideas with colleagues.
