Cutting sugar from kids’ diets appears to have a beneficial effect in just 10 days

American kids consume an insane amount of sugar — often double or triple the federal recommended dietary guidelines — and these empty calories are often blamed for everything from obesity to hyperactivity in the schools. What happens when we take it away?

Healthy eating for pregnant women

It is important to choose a wide variety of healthy foods to make sure that the nutritional needs of both mother and baby are met.

You can eat well during pregnancy by:

• enjoying a variety of fruits and vegetables of different types and colours
• increasing your intake of grain and cereal foods to 8-8 ½ serves a day. Choose mostly wholegrain and high fibre options
• choosing foods that are high in iron, such as lean red meat or tofu. Iron-rich foods are important for pregnant women
• making a habit of drinking milk, and eating hard cheese and yoghurt, or calcium-enriched alternatives. Reduced-fat varieties are best
• drinking plenty of water (fluid needs are about 750 to 1,000 ml extra per day)

Foods and drinks that are high in saturated fat, added sugar and salt are not a necessary part of a healthy diet and should be limited.

You can replace the yogurt with flaxseed morning with almond or soy milk. Is it really worth it to follow the dairy free diet, even for the sake of the challenge.

It's improve your digestion

Did you know that more people are diagnosed with lactose intolerance, a gastrointestinal disorder which is manifested by the body's inability to digest lactose, a carbohydrate found in milk.
