How To Help Your Kids Develop Healthy Habits For Healthier Hearts

Probably the number one rule to follow is being a good example
of living a healthy lifestyle in front of your kids. Actions do
speak louder than words. Living healthy lifestyles creates
healthier hearts and helps to prevent heart disease.



Work on getting the entire family active and plan times for
everyone to be active together. You can take walks, ride bikes,
go swimming, mow grass, and do gardening. The list is endless.
Everyone benefits from the exercise and the time together, and
you are one more step closer to preventing heart disease in
yourself and your kids.

Remember to limit the time you allow your kids to sit in front
of the T.V., video game and computer. These activities and
habits lead to a sedentary lifestyle and possibly unhealthy
snacking, which increases risks for childhood obesity and heart
disease.

Never reward your kids with food, especially candy and snacks.
Candy and snacks as a reward encourage unhealthy lifestyle
habits and unhealthy hearts. Instead, celebrate your child’s
good behavior with a quick game of hide and seek or a walk
through a favorite park or scenic area.

Set specific goals and limits such as two or three desserts per
week other than the usual healthier fruit and one hour of
physical activity per day.

Eating on the go can be especially hard. Trying to feed your
children nutritious meals in between all your daily activities
and chores is a real challenge. You probably find yourself
zooming around town to dance recitals, baseball practices,
pick-up preschoolers, and pick-up your dry cleaning, stop at the
post office, among zillions of other round about trips here and
there. If you have to eat on the go, review the following tips
to make fast food healthier for you and your heart:

• Buy the smaller size of fries or anything you purchase on the
go
• Eat only a burger or a sandwich and no sides. If you want a
side, order fruit cup or side salad
• Avoid the double meat and bacon sandwiches. Try grilled
chicken sandwiches
• Eat only half the bun or one slice of the bread with your
sandwich
• Ask for a wheat bun or wheat bread
• Skip mayo and other dressings and sauces
• Drink water, diet soda or low-fat milk

Are your kids non-athletes? Team and competitive sports are a
great way for kids to get their daily exercise, build healthy
bones, strong hearts and lungs. However, competitive sports are
not for every child. Review the following tips to help get your
child up and moving:

• If your kid is embarrassed or does not think he or she is good
enough to participate in sports, try to find time to practice
together and help build their confidence

• For kids that just don’t like competing in sports, try
introducing swimming, horseback riding, dancing, cycling,
skateboarding, yoga, walking, and gymnastics. Work to find your
child’s interests.

• Never make exercise a punishment. Never force your child to go
out and play. Try using physical activity to counter something
your child does not want to do, such as homework. Try making it
routine that your child rides a bike for 20 minutes or so before
doing homework each night. He or she may ride a little longer
just to put off doing the homework a little longer.

Try to incorporate healthy eating habits and activity into every
child’s schedule to lay the groundwork for healthy hearts as
adults. And remember, practice what you teach. Actions always
speak louder than words.

Try using Life's Abundance Minerals and Antioxidants Drink Mix instead of the popular energy drinks.

 Minerals and Antioxidants Drink Mix
Americans are deficient in minerals. In fact, way back in 1936, the Department of Agriculture told congress that 99% of the population was deficient. Regrettably, there are many more recent studies confirming varying amounts of mineral deficiencies in our diet, mainly due to their depletion in our soil. 

We need minerals! Vitamins cannot work properly without them and they are absolutely vital to maintain our mental and physical well being. Since the body cannot manufacture minerals, they must come from our diet. 

Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants drink mix is a delicious way to supplement your diet. 

This unique mix is made with a variety of freshly harvested sea vegetables and contains approximately 74-plant based, naturally chelated, trace minerals. For an additional nutritional boost, it also contains antioxidants from 11 nutrient-rich super fruits like acai, cranberry, goji, maqui and pomegranate ... making this a high ORAC beverage blend. ORAC stands for oxygen radical absorbance capacity and it's a way of measuring the antioxidant level, which is important because antioxidants are essential to good health. 

Unlike many liquid water enhancers made from chemicals, our formula is made with coconut water and aloe vera and it does not contain any added sugar, artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. The organic coconut water replaces electrolytes plus it is alkalizing, which helps to restore a natural pH balance in the body and counters the effects of an acidic diet. 

Instead of giving you a sugar crash like most other “health” drinks, our Minerals & Antioxidants mix gives you sustained energy. 

Give hydration a boost with Life’s Abundance Minerals & Antioxidants. In two delicious flavors, Cherry and Tropical Fruit, pour into a water bottle for a convenient, go-anywhere nutritious drink. Take it to the gym or give a bottle to the kids … it’s delicious, refreshing and nourishing!
