CDC: Teens Don’t Eat Enough Fruits and Veggies
Nov. 23, 2011 — Many American teenagers may be eating fewer fruits and vegetables each day than nationwide guidelines recommend for this age group, a CDC report suggests.
In 2010, about one in four high school students ate fruit less than once a day, and one in three didn’t eat vegetables more than once a day.
Although diets rich in fruits and vegetables can help control weight and are also linked with a lower risk of chronic diseases and some cancers, most teens are falling short of the recommended daily levels.
To find out how much produce teenagers were typically eating, the CDC reviewed data from the 2010 National Youth Physical Activity and Nutrition Study.
For this study, students attending both public and private high schools across the country were asked to complete a survey describing the kinds of fruits and vegetables they had eaten in the last week and how often they had them.
The survey of 10,765 high school students showed that teens ate both fruits and vegetables an average of 1.2 times a day.

Taking Out The Bad Foods
Well I must confess I have a secret I like chocolate, I have 3 kids that I just took trick or treating. When we got home we went through the candy picked out anything that looked even a little open, tossed the pixie sticks also known as pure sugar. We only allow them 2 pieces on Halloween night and then 1 piece every day for about 2 weeks. Now we are not talking about the regular size bars these are just the little fun size bars now they are not great for them but they are still kids and I want them to enjoy their childhoods too.
I have done pretty good this week I must admit I did have 2 boxes of the milk duds. That is it, I actually am very proud of myself because there are only like 5 pieces in each little box.
