Teen Nutrition. What's the Big Debate? (Canadian Rainbow Edition)
There's no debate that healthy eating is good for you, but too often teens who have choices don't make smart choices when it comes to food and activity. Two high school classmates prepare for a debate on healthy eating, a nutritionist gives advice and student interviews give a "real life" view of eating habits.
Viewers learn about: the F-A-T-S method of eating and activity, the P-L-A-N method of changing bad eating/activity habits, why the Canada Food Guide matters, how to use a hunger scale to control eating and how reading food labels can help teens make healthy choices.
A teacher's guide is available.
