What is the BMI? How much should I be eating? Do I really need to
exercise? Find the answers to these questions and other food, body,
and health questions in this guide to understanding the
fundamentals of good nutrition and its partner for optimum
health--physical activity. Healthy eating can be a habit and good
habits started earlier in life are easier to maintain. Good
nutrition and physical activity complement each other in weight
loss, cardiovascular health, and other benefits. This book provides
the advice you need on how to get the most out of what you eat and
how to develop healthier habits that will help keep you fit for a
lifetime. Most teens don't need to resort to special diets or
programs; they just need to know how to make sensible choices.
Definitions of good nutrition, discussions of how the food you eat
affects the way you feel and perform, and information on how to use
readily available tools, such as the Nutrition Facts label and USDA
Food Guide Pyramid are just some of the factors provided to help
readers develop healthy habits. Bijlefeld and Zoumbaris provide
information on a number of other health matters, from vegetarian
diets to eating disorders to the affects of alcohol and drugs on
the body. You'll also learn how to make healthy choices in grocery
stores and restaurants, how to set up a kitchen of your own, and
how to keep your food safe, all factors involved in helping you to
stay healthy for peak performance in whatever you choose to do.
