5 Easy Ways to Get Your Family’s Health on Track<\/h2>\n

There are five simple ways for your family to lead a healthy lifestyle and get back on track:
\n1. Get active each day<\/strong>
\nRegular physical activity is important for the healthy growth, development and well-being of children and young people.
\nThey should get at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day, including vigorous activities that make them \u2018huff and puff\u2019.
\nInclude activities that strengthen muscles and bones on at least 3 days of the week.
\nParents should be good role models and have a positive attitude to being active.
\n2. Choose water as a drink<\/strong>
\nWater is the best way to quench your thirst \u2013 and it doesn\u2019t come with the added sugar found in fruit juices, soft drinks and other sweetened drinks.
\nReduced fat milk for children over two is a nutritious drink and a great source of calcium.
\nGive kids whole fruit to eat, rather than offering fruit juices that have a lot of sugar.

\nEating fruit and vegetables every day helps children grow and develop, boosts their vitality and can reduce the risk of many chronic diseases.
\nAim to eat two serves of fruit and five serves of vegetables every day.
\nHave fresh fruit available as a convenient snack and try to include fruit and vegies in every meal.
\n4. Switch off the screen and get active<\/strong>
\nSedentary or \u2018still\u2019 time spent watching TV, surfing online or playing computer games is linked to kids becoming overweight or obese.
\nChildren and young people should spend no more than two hours a day on \u2018small screen\u2019 entertainment. Break up long periods of use as often as possible.
\nPlan a range of active indoor and outdoor games or activities for your children, as alternatives to watching TV or playing on the computer.
\n5. Eat fewer snacks and select healthier alternatives<\/strong>
\nHealthy snacks help children and young people meet their daily nutritional needs.
\nSnacks based on fruit and vegetables, reduced fat dairy products and whole grains are the healthiest choices.
\nAvoid snacks that are high in sugar or saturated fats \u2013 such as chips, cakes and chocolate \u2013 which can cause children to put on excess weight.<\/p>\n
