Hey, Parents! Did you know?

Hey parents! Did you know… 🤔
✖️Nearly 33% of children are obese and malnourished. This increases lack of energy, lower academic performance, poor concentration, memory loss, and can even lower life expectancy!⁣
✖️Diet plays a HUGE role in children physically, mentally, and emotionally. Our kids, and even as adults, need foods that are high in nutrition. 🍎
✖️63% of America’s calories come from processed foods like soft drinks, packaged snacks and desserts, and other refined foods. ⁣
✖️25% of America’s calories come from animal-based foods. ⁣
✖️And only 12% of America’s calories come from plant-based foods. ⁣
✖️Unfortunately, half of the plant-based calories (6%) come from french fries.🍟 That means only 6% of those calories are coming from health-promoting fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. 🥦
