Reading Nutrition Labels for Kids Part 1 HPC: E12
Wish your kids understood what was in the food they eat? Here’s a tutorial from the voice of healthy kids cooking, elementary teacher and mom of 4. Grab your kids to watch this video which was made just for them!
They’ll learn:
* How to read an ingredients list including those pesky parentheses
* What a calorie is and why we ignore them
* The difference between fat, carbohydrates, and protein calories
* how to remember all the different kinds of fat, which ones we should eat and avoid (careful, you might learn something too!)
* Which ingredient is always bad for us, and all the sneaky ways it hides
* a quick guide to the brand new labels that split out added sugars, and how to interpret those
