Sugar Findings: How Much Are Your Kids Eating?

Hey Everyone, 

I write a lot of posts directed at helping you with your wellness needs but what about the family?  Are you aware at how many processed and added sugars your kids are really eating?  The Dietary Guidelines suggest that fats and added sugars should total 5-15% of a child's diet.  This is a combination and just because it says 15% doesn't mean it's okay to consistently reach that limit. Always aim for lower!  

This article highlights a study done by the Center for Disease Control on how many added sugars (not including fats) your children are eating.  Avoid the empty calories and start supplying your home with healthier options!
