Today, one-third of North American children and teenagers are
overweight. And despite decades of medical and scientific
breakthroughs, the percentage of children with health problems
today is the highest in history.
Feed Your Kids Well will be a revelation for millions of worried
parents. Dr. Fred Pescatore, who was overweight and asthmatic as a
child, brings an empathetic and hopeful tone to this groundbreaking
guide to achieving optimum nutrition, ideal health, and
self-confidence.
Building on the low-carbohydrate principles of the hugely popular
Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution--which has helped millions of
adults lose weight permanently--Dr. Pescatore applies the Atkins
Center's proven nutritional program to children and teenagers.
Thoroughly tested over years of exhaustive research, his Next
Generation Diet is the first health program to recognize that
simply applying adult diet plans to children is ineffective--and
often dangerous. The author argues that the real culprit behind
dietary problems is not fat, but sugars and starches. Feed Your
Kids Well brings something new to the table: sane and practical
guidance for parents concerned not only about weight loss, but also
about general wellness and the prevention of disease--from asthma
to ADD, from earaches to allergies.
After explaining how your child's body and metabolism work, Dr.
Pescatore clearly outlines a straightforward nutritional lifestyle
program that helps parents shape the important building
blocks--proteins, fats, and carbohydrates--into complete,
well-balanced meals. Packed with easy-to-follow sample menus for
every day of the week, this book provides delicious, healthy
alternatives. Kids will love the dozens of simple, step-by-step
recipes for a variety of dishes, including pancakes with strawberry
topping, chicken fingers, beef tacos, fudgy brownie squares, and
peanut butter cookies. Some recipes are easy enough for kids to
make themselves
Parents will also learn how to integrate effective nutrition with
various vitamin supplements, complementary medical treatments, and
a regular exercise program, which can help heal and even prevent
childhood ailments. With fascinating case studies, Dr. Pescatore
demonstrates how to treat these problems simply by monitoring
nutrient deficiencies and sugar overload.
In childhood, the all-important seeds of our adult selves are
planted--from our personalities to our eating habits. Feed Your
Kids Well helps parents prepare their children for healthy, happy
lives.
