Healthy Choices: Diet, Exercise and Self-Management provides the tools to directly confront a growing health crisis with our children. Not only do inactivity and obesity come with immediate health risks including a dramatic increase in cardiovascular disease and diabetes in children but they also present extraordinary long-term public health risks. These risks include early death, obesity, diabetes, heart disease and various cancers. Healthy Choices provides a multiyear approach to educating children and supporting a behavior change toward healthier living. The focus of the activities is on instilling positive decision making and empowerment. Can we afford not to safeguard our most valuable natural resource? 104 Pages. Reproducible.
