Mid Pictures

Here are Marcy's mid Pictures... Can't wait to take the final ones!

Sugar in Foods...Scary

Of note, fruit has sugar as shown but it has less than many of the processed foods. Fruit is very healthy; a moderate fruit portion several times a day is great. I also liked the picture of the carrots. Carrots have a high Glycemic index, so some people think they should be avoided, however the amount of sugar is very low as shown in the picture. In other words, carrots have a low Glycemic Load, are low in calories (probably 35 calories in the serving shown) and are great to eat for weight management (and in general)

Interesting Fact!

Last year the nonpartisan Trust for America's Health, in Washington D.C., released a study concluding that every dollar invested in things like promoting physical activity and improving food choices yielded $5 in health-care savings! When are we going to wake up? If people are alive longer, won't insurance companies make more money off them?
