Got food on your plate?

"Pagkain ng Gulay Ugaliin, Araw-araw itong Ihain."

Don’t you just love to eat? Children have grown to the habit of being engrossed in the world of indulged sweets that they seem to forget that what they’re taking in is not always that nutritious. We can’t escape the fact that we used to be kids running around with no hint of thought to what is going around our little environment. Now that we do, reminiscing back to the old days, don’t you think that it’s only fair to let our children be what they are? To let them eat their luxury and to indulge themselves in their world of chocolates and candies?

             Amongst the odds today, the mere are getting sickly by the minute wherein their bodies are lacking of ample energy to do their daily tasks. Now, in celebration to this year’s Nutrition-Month, on the month of July, individuals of every age are accounted for being involved in the activities held in the very four walls of their school.  Simply these activities will serve as a wakeup call for those students sleeping in class with degrading nutritional status. Digging deeper with this notion, as of today, seven out of ten young Filipino citizens at the ages of four to seven have been proven to be overweight and are in dire need of excessive exercise for a healthier and wealthier lifestyle.

          One thing I can say to mommies out there, if your son or daughter is indulged in the guilty pleasure of chocolates ad candies, make vegetables a whole lot of fun. Make them snacks that says; “I’m yummy and I’m also healthy!” so come one, come all! It is never too late to turn away from your cravings. I’m not saying that you totally give up on your chocolates, but I’m here stating that with these indulged sweets whole way through, life is too short to live it shortly. Sweets may be that good, but life is better if you live it the way it should be.

           Expand your options. Make life a better living.
