Before most food companies began removing hydrogenated oils from foods, Dr. Katz (from the Yale University School of Medicine) taught our family it was something to avoid. His Nutrition Detectives curriculum (something we completed in a day), convinced our then-six-year-old peanut butter & jelly addict to switch from Jif to an all-natural peanut butter. Without any nagging on my part! How’s that for easy?

A nutrition curriculum for kids is a fantastic idea. I wish something like this was around when I was in elementary school. The sooner people get serious about nutrition the better. Young kids learning about nutrition and how to take care of themselves will create new generations of health conscious individuals.

This is fantastic. The better we are at helping children learn how to make healthy choices for themselves early on, the more likely it is that we will be able to positively impact our healthcare system in this country.
great resources, thanks!!
