What's in store for
08?
Publishing
What do I Feed my Baby
What do I Feed my Baby has been a
huge success, the feedback we have been given has been inspiring! So
with that we are taking our book to the printers and having it published.
We hope to start distributing our gorgeous book mid 2008. If you are
interested in a copy or in becoming a distributor let us know.
Healthy Eating Instructors program
for Australian schools
This program is going to be one of
our most challenging projects to-date. We believe that basic healthy
eating is the foundation to good health and to support this we want to
make it easier to know how to eat healthy. Our aim is to place a Healthy
Eating Instructor (HEI) in every school across Australia. HEI's will
be the fountain of knowledge from anything healthy eating, providing canteen
reviews and support, tips and tip sheets on nutrition for parents,
students and staff to guidance on how to eat better.
Everyone who has any contact with a school at some point will now have
access to someone who has the time and the resources to help them eat
better, live longer and be healthier.
We are very proud to announce St
Lukes Grammar (Dee Why) and Our Lady of Good Counsel (Frenchs Forest) will
be piloting the program. If you would like to know more about this
project, or think your school may be interested you can register your
interest online now.
What do I Feed my
Toddler
With the success of What do I Feed my
Baby we are considering a What do I Feed my
Toddler. Aimed at children 1 to 3 years this little
gem will cover weaning, milk, weight, fussy eating, meal ideas and
recipes, lunchboxes and much more. If you would like to be notified
of the release of this book
email the office.

tips
Pick the best
product
Opt for products that have
more potassium than sodium (in the 100g
panel), as a rule of thumb this can help to find products that are less
processed. Try it next time you are at the supermarket by comparing
processed foods with natural whole foods.
Send us your
tip.....>>
product pick
Jalna fruit
yoghurt range - I cheered when I found that Jalna fruit yoghurts
have no added sugar, which meant even my baby could enjoy this range; they
are great for the whole family. For the calorie conscious you might like
to try the Vaalia range, it was given an
excellent review for its probiotics in an Australian dietetics journal.

need more time for your
assessment?
Don't forget that studying
as an adult learner via correspondence means that we are able to be
flexible with your assessments. So if you have had a busy time, or
found school holidays a stretch just buzz the office
or email us so we can set you another assessment due date. Remember
it is never to late! Email us now.....>>
Please note we will
no longer be sending monthly email reminders regarding assessments,
instead we hope our newsletters will be just as gentle a reminder.
did you know…
What
increases your cancer risk?
You would think that
with cancer as our third biggest cause of death in Australia we would know
more than we do about why some people get cancer and others don't.
However we can say with some certainty that modifying our lifestyle can
reduce our chances of cancer (by as much as up to a third).
-
Watch your weight:
Obesity is a significant cause of many cancers such as oesophagus, colon,
rectum, pancreas, breast, endometrium and kidneys, now that is an
impressive list!
-
Keep moving it babe'!
Activity it seems has an anti-cancer effect, so that 30 minutes a day
working up to more is essential for good health and longevity.
-
Booze is bad:
Alcohol increases your risk of a long line of cancers also, not too
mention its role in body fat and insulin resistance. Starting to see
a picture emerging here?
Now diet! Well
if you know us at all you will know that we harp on about the importance
of fruit and veggies because of the plant compounds, so again no
surprise here about their role in cancer prevention. But studies continue
to throw a shadow over meat and processed meat consumption.
In fact estimates of excesses are quite surprising "On average, if you eat
large amounts of red or processed meat you have about a 30% increased risk
of colorectal cancer compared with someone who eats little or none".....>>
The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) published their findings in a report called
Food, Nutrition, Physical
Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer.....>>
Feel
yukky
after a fatty meal?
Well that's because fatty meals play havoc with your blood sugar, blood
fat and your hormones, what's more though these tasty morsels encourage
the body to make inflammatory substances that damage vessels in the body.
All these events require the body to react, however the spill-over effect
leads to an increase of free-radicles in the body.
Once again it's interesting to see that the Mediterranean diet and
Okinawa diet (of Japan) came up trumps.....>>
What you bath
baby in matters
This is a little scary, it seems some
baby lotions, powders and shampoos contain chemicals (well let's be
specific, nasty chemicals such as phthalates) that may be linked to
allergies and other health issues.....>>
Eat well, enjoy life and
live long
