- Simple Tips For Making A Healthy Breakfast
By: Colleen Trombley-VanHoogstraat | - We've all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. While I believe that all meals and snacks are important, since they will all move us either toward better health and function or away from it, breakfast certainly comes with some additional importance.
What we put in our bodies at the start of our day will in large part determine our physiological, mental and emotional function for the rest of the day... or at least for the next few hours. Wow. No pressure!

- Helping Kids Transition Away From Toxic Foods To Healthier Nutrition Choices
By: Colleen Trombley-VanHoogstraat | - The science of Epigenetics explains that our lifestyle choices (environment) will determine our level of health and our risk factors for chronic illness. In fact, research has demonstrated that over 98% of all chronic illness (cancer, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, depression & anxiety disorders, reproductive disorders, digestive disorders, etc.) is due to environmental factors, not genetics. This means that our choices in nutrition, movement and mindset will determine how healthy we are.

- 4 Ways To Help Your Child Maintain A Healthy Weight
By: Brenda Simard | - What we, as parents, need to understand is that we are the adults in our relationships with our children.

By: Paul Guenther | - Come on, guys and gals. Sugary cereals are for kids. And don't follow your nose. The big toucan? He never knows.
