In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how to raise a healthy teen. With the number of overweight and obese teenagers skyrocketing it is critical that parents control what they can control in regards to their teen. While it is becoming increasingly difficult to monitor your teens eating while they are out of your home – you can control what food is inside your house. Get rid of the unhealthy snacks and bring in the fruits and vegetables. Try and make time to eat together as a family and when you do eat together prepare healthy meals. Involve your teen in the meal preparation as well. This way you can show him/her what a portion size looks like and how to make healthful food substitutions.
