In her new book, registered dietitian and mother of two, Dr. Natalie Digate Muth gives parents the tools to get their tykes to embrace healthy eating — fruits, vegetables and other healthy foods — without bribes or battles.
Topics addressed in the book include:
Learning the (reverse) psychology of getting kids to eat healthy.
Why the “clean plate club” contributes to childhood and adult obesity.
How using food as a reward causes more long-term damage than short-term parental sanity.
How subtle marketing and packaging tactics are designed to sabotage healthy eating habits.
Learning effective strategies to get the young “couch potato” up and moving.
Each chapter is followed by simple, kid-friendly recipes developed by Dr. Mary Saph Tanaka, a UCLA pediatric resident and a talented amateur chef, which enable parents to turn the books information into action.
