Shall we start here
Swap cereal &/or toast for breakfast( sugar) for egg, or meat based mealSwap sandwich & fruit/yoghurt/ bar for more meaty lunch or cooked school lunch
Swap fruit, crisps or sweets as snacks for meat, olives, hard boiled eggs, hummusSwap cordials, fruit juice or carbonated drinks for water or milkSwap meals
of pasta, pizza, rice or potatoes for meat or
fish based meals with veggiesSUGAR -22kg a year in 4-10 year oldsReset what I call their sweet-o-meterSlide4
Concentrate on reducing sugar..

Enlist the help of your partner, relatives and friends & start with ourselvesSlide5

Take a view. Does this work for YOUR child/our children?
How are your child’s teeth , their weight, their behaviour?
We are all different in how well we tolerate starchy carbsWhere does your child get their “good fats” and protein?Slide6
