Healthy Tips

Balance your food choices - don't eat too much of any one thing.

You don't have to give up foods like hamburgers, french fries and ice cream to eat healthy. You just have to be smart about how often and how much of them you eat. Your body needs nutrients like protein, carbohydrates, fat and many different vitamins and minerals such as vitamins C and A, iron and calcium from a variety of foods. Balancing food choices from the Food Guide Pyramid and checking out the Nutrition Facts Panel on food labels will help you get all these nutrients.

What is the Health Challenge?

The Health Challenge is a tool that can be used to motivate yourself and others to get fit and stay healthy. Exercise can be boring, and it's more fun to exercise with friends; unfortunately, busy schedules make it hard to work out times to be active together. With The Health Challenge, you can be connected to your friends and have a common health goal. Challenge each other to stay fit with many activities to choose from: basketball, weightlifting, surfing, biking, yoga, even Wii!!

The Health Challenge also keeps track of your activities, and you can see how you stack up to other individuals in the challenge. The point totals show your commitment to your fitness challenge, and when it comes to your health, everybody wins!
