Inactivity due to TV and video games, unhealthy school lunches and vending machines, hectic schedules, drive-thru dinners and minimal family time have become serious risk-factors. With all these obstacles, it’s no wonder why: + 1 in 3 Children is Clinically Obese + Children as young as 7 & 8 years old are diagnosed with Type II Diabetes (more commonly in adults over 40) + Kids at 10-19 years old are being treated with prescription medications for hypertension and high cholesterol + More commonly, kids are showing increased signs of fatigue, cravings, anxiety, depression and a tendency towards sedentary lifestyles But let’s move away from the fear factor! Yes, we want to protect our kids from potential health issues, but more importantly, we want to save our kids from mediocrity. These are our future leaders! We should give them every opportunity to thrive and achieve their personal best! The solution? Empowerment. It’s about creating a culture in your home that is so much a part of who you are, that there is absolutely NO turning back! |
