We’ve all heard this statement, but do we believe it? It seems that these days, with busy schedules and families on the go, we "grab something quick" to eat, without enough regard to what that "something quick" actually does for our health. Are we paying attention to what keeps our bodies and minds working smoothly? This unit introduces concepts on developing healthy nutritional choices.

Nutrition is a vital component of a healthy lifestyle. It is more than calorie counting or dieting—is about knowing what to eat and how much—then putting that knowledge into action. Have fun in this unit learning how nutrition impacts your total health.
