Physical Activity Fun
Recommended activity for children is 1 hour daily Study of children surveyed twice (1 year apart)
For those who increased their activity by 7 hours per week:
Healthy weight children achieved BMI maintenance OBESE children had BMI fall of -0.2 kg/m2 (gained about 1
less lb than expected)

Physical Activity Fun screen time physical activity Screen time contingent upon physical activity
8 weeks intervention Reward for activity: 1 hr activity = 1 token =1 hr TV
Follow-up at 16 weeks Intervention group compared to controls
activity by 30 minutes/day sedentary behaviors by 2 hrs/day snacking while watching TV BMI -0.6 kg/m2 vs. +0.3 kg/m2 controls

COUNSELING TIPS: Family Activity
Incorporate activity into your family events Young children need play partners – that is the
parent! Support your child’s activities Plan to be active yourself (30 minutes of jogging = 1 soda)

Regulation of Eating
Sensory factors: TasteSmell
Texture Sight
Effects of:Variety
Sensory-specific satietyPalatability
Food concentrationReady availability
Brain mechanisms:Modulate sensory factors by
satiety signals to produce reward value and appetite
Eating
from Rolls ET. Obes Rev 2007;8(suppl 1):67-72
Satiety/hunger signals:Adipose tissue signals
Gut hormonesGastric distension
Cognitive factors: Conscious rational control
Beliefs about the foodAdvertising
Family & Social Influences
Weight Status Food Content
Increase Intake of Fruits and Vegetables
Fruits and Vegetables
Low in calories High in fiber – fill you up! Sensory appeal
Taste, texture, color Rich in vitamins and minerals,
which are needed to fight oxidative stress
13
Fight Oxidative Stress 20% of oxygen breaks down to Free Radicals &
Reactive Oxygen Species Stressors can increase that to 80%
UV light Poor nutrition Inflammation Air Pollution Tobacco Radiation

Fruits and Vegetables
1/2 cup = 1 serving Needs for children:
<15% of US children get 5 daily servings! Adult on a 2000 calorie /day diet
NEED 9 servings/day
Age Group
Servings of
Fruits/day
Servings of
Vegetables/day
Toddlers 2+ 2+
Older children/adolescents 2+ 3+
The million dollar question…
How do you get kids to eat more vegetables?
15
First thing:
How are the parents interacting with vegetables? Are the parents buying vegetables? Are the parents serving vegetables? Are the parents eating vegetables?
Children pattern their behavior after their parents
16
17
Parental Modeling and Pressure to Eat 191 families; Girls age 5 yrs Measures:
F&V servings/day Girls: 3/day Parents 2/day
Parental pressure to eat scale
Parents with high F&V intake had girls with higher levels of F&V intake (about 1 more/day)
Parents with lower F&V intake had higher levels of pressure to eat
High pressure decreased F&V intake about 1 less/day, after controlling for parental intake
Fisher J et al. J Am Dietetic Assoc 2002;102:58-64
18
Changing Food Preferences
Intervention study Children 2-6 yrs
“Tasting” method: Taste vegetable for 14 consecutive days
Parent taste & provide positive verbal cues
No forcing
Significant increase in liking and consumption after using the method (compared to controls)
Repeated “tasting” can transform dislike into likeWardle J et al. Appetite 2003;40:155-62Birch LL. Annu Rev Nutr 1999;19:41–62

Positive Messages: Increasing Healthy Eating vs. Reducing High Energy-Dense Foods
Family-based obesity intervention 13 groups sessions over
5 months 2 groups
Healthy Eating = more fruit, vegetables, and low-fat dairy
Reducing High Energy-Dense Foods = less high-fat, high-sugar foods
BMI reduction sustained only in Healthy Eating group BMI of parents in
Healthy Eating group improved more, too!
Epstein LH, et al. Obesity 2008;16:318-26
Parents set an example!
Buy, cook, serve, and eat more vegetables To start, double what you’re currently doing Put vegetables in everything you’re cooking Bring fruit and vegetable snacks with you
Eat a fruit at every meal and two vegetables at dinner
Learn to like new vegetables

Increase Intake of Whole Grains and Fiber
What are Whole Grains?
Whole grain foods contain all the grain layers, including:
Bran (outer layer, contains seed fiber)
Endosperm or Kernel
(contains vitamins and minerals)
Germ
(concentrated source of nutrients)
What is Fiber?A group of compounds including lignin (plant cell walls) and complex carbohydrates that cannot be digested by human enzymes in the small intestine
Sources of Fiber Fiber/serving
Legumes (beans, peas) (cooked) 6-8 grams/ 1/2 cup
Fruits and Vegetables (cooked) 2-6 grams/ 1/2 cup
Whole Grains and Cereals 2-5 grams/ serving
Nuts and Seeds 2-4 grams/ ounce
24
Fiber: Health benefits Increases satiety (the feeling of fullness) Helps prevent constipation (increases fecal bulk) Lower cholesterol absorption and LDL synthesis
5-10 g/day reduces LDL cholesterol by about 5% ↓ serum triglycerides ↓ cholesterol synthesis
May decrease insulin resistance Additional 5 g fiber/day→ 10% ↓ in belly fat deposition*
May help reduce weight gain Higher fiber inversely associated with BMI in major observational
studies Role of fiber in weight control is not yet clear
*Ventura E, et al. Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med 2009;163:320–7
25
Dietary Fiber: HOW MUCH?
Ages 1-3 years 19 g/day
Ages 4 – 8 years 25 g/day
Ages 9 – 13 yearsMale
Female31 g/day26 g/day
Ages 14 -50 yearsMale
Female38 g/day29 g/day
US adults typically get 14-15 g fiber/day
Children:

27
Read It Before You Eat It!
Read the food label Look for High Fiber and Whole Grain
5 g fiber/serving is HIGH for cereal and bread Find the LOW SUGAR food
4 g sugar = 1 teaspoon sugar Sugary circles: 12 g sugars; 3 g fiber Sugary flakes: 11 g sugars; 1 g fiber
Look for those with < 8 g sugar per serving Mix brands of cereals to increase fiber and lower
sugar content
Reduce/Avoid Sugar-Sweetened Beverages and Foods
29
Sugar-Sweetened Beverages (SSB)
What are SSBs? Soda, fruit drinks, juice blends, lemonade, sweetened tea Other carbonated or uncarbonated drinks (ie, sports and
energy drinks) Most consumption happens at home (55-75%) Daily calories from juice and other SSB (among
those consuming): 2-5 yrs, 190 calories 6-11 yrs, 220 calories 12-19 yrs, 345 calories
Vartanian, et al. Am J Pub Health. 2007;97:667-75NHANES 1999-2004

Juices & Sugar-Sweetened Beverages
Theoretically, if added to the typical US diet: 1 soda/day = 15 lb/year
Studies show switch to calorie free saves 1-3 kg/yr gain in children & lowers fat deposition

31
Sugar-Sweetened Beverages Sugar types
Sucrose (cane/beet sugar = 50% glucose + 50% fructose) High fructose corn syrup (55% fructose + 45% glucose)
Fructose has more negative health effects (compared to glucose) An increase in visceral fat (in organs) Less sensitivity to insulin Increased fat production in the liver Higher LDL cholesterol Higher triglycerides
Effects on energy intake ↑ hunger & ↓ satiety Displace appetite for nutrient-balanced foods
Stanhope et al, J Clin Invest 2009;119:1322-34
Wang et al, Pediatrics 2008;121:e1604-14
32
Diet Beverages (Non-nutritive sweetened beverages)
Typically sugar-free, artificially sweetened, non-alcoholic, carbonated beverages
Marketed towards:health-conscious people, diabetics, athletespeople who want to lose weight or stay fit
Replacing sugar-sweetened beverages with water and diet beverages can lower total calories consumed.
Raben et al. Am J Clin Nutr 2002;76:721-9
33
However…
Sweet goes with fatty and salty!
When consumed alone, diet beverages may increase hunger
Mattes et al. Am J Clin Nutr 2009;89:1-14
The food item alone has 710 cals (40 grams fat, 13 grams saturated fat) and that is without the 300-600 calories from French fries!
EVEN BETTER WITH A DIET COKE AND FRESH LIME

34
Diet Beverages
No benefits for weight loss or slowing weight gain, UNLESS accompanied by total energy restriction and improved energy balance
Oh yeah… a diet soda
too.

35
Counseling Tips: Beverages
Plain water is best! Drink plenty of it.
Flavor water with lemon or lime. Keep it cold in the refrigerator.
While diet drinks are preferred over regular soda, the sweet taste can increase your intake of high calorie foods.

Less & Safer Chemical Exposures
Effects Fat cell regulation -- PPAR – peroxisome proliferator-
activated receptors Endocrine disruptors
Products w/ potential for harm BPA -- 7 Phthalates – 3 Organotins – PVC - 3 PBDE (polybrominated diphenyl ethers)
Less & Safer Chemical Exposures
Choose safer plastics Avoid heating plastics Wash produce
Buy organic if you can, but Eating Fruits and Veggies is more important than eating only organic F & V
Peel – but think about fiber

Summary
Be a role model for healthy habits! Be positive about healthy foods. Make changes to the home environment to
promote healthy habits. A few changes can have a big impact.
