Eating Healthy – The Real “change Of Life”

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

As obesity climbs to epic proportions in this country, it’s not impossible to believe that our parents and grandparents, for the most part, ate much better than we do now. They had fresh food which more than likely was purchased every day or so, mainly because refrigerators were smaller and freezers were essentially nothing more than a place to make ice cubes and maybe store a steak and a package of bacon.

Even school lunches were completely different. Schools were only allowed to serve milk – no soda, coffee, milk shakes, energy drinks, or even bottled water. Although the food itself frequently had a bad reputation, it was fixed according to the dietary standards of those days and even though the food pyramid has changed dramatically over the years, schools now serve lunches that most parents don’t even want their kids to eat.

Decades ago even schools made kids eat healthier. There wasn’t much of a choice, actually. They got a hot meal, milk, and maybe dessert. No cokes, no vending machines with chips and cookies, no coffee or frapaccuinos, and no energy drinks loaded with sugar and caffeine. Kids got a balanced meal – in accordance with the food pyramid knowledge of the day.
