Nutrition and Healthy Eating
This week we are focusing on Vitamin D so that we can encourage our children to build strong bones and teeth. Milk and other dairy foods like yogurt and cheese are good sources of Vitamin D, but did you know there are other ways to get your Vitamin D? One neat way we get Vitamin D is through exposure to the sun. Did you also know that Vitamin D does more than just build your children’s bones and teeth? It also protects them from illnesses like the flu, gives them a mental boost, improves sleep and even helps them build muscle and maintain a healthy weight! Have your family try one of these foods for your daily dose of Vitamin D:
• Dairy, like low-fat milk
• Almonds
• Spinach
• Whole grain cereals
• Mushrooms
• Eggs
• Orange juice
• Fish, like salmon
BONUS- take a walk outside and soak up some sun and Vitamin D
