Weekly Healthy Eating Tips

Tip of the Week

Lunch for breakfast: For kids and adults, who don't like a traditional breakfast, encourage them to eat a sandwich instead. A ham & cheese or peanut butter and jelly sandwich on 100% whole wheat bread will get the day started the healthy way. Grape Juice Extra: Consider drinking Welch's 100% grape juice with your breakfast. It's naturally loaded with protective antioxidants, with more than twice that natural antioxidant power of OJ.

Fantastic Fiber: Fiber helps to maintain good digestive health. While recommendations for total fiber intake generally range from 20-35 grams per day, most Americans only get about half of the recommended amount. To help you increase your daily fiber, choose brown rice (1 cup = 3g fiber) instead of white rice, snack on almonds (1oz. = 3g fiber), select 100% whole wheat bread (2 slices = 4g fiber) or add some beans to your salad (1/4 cup garbanzo beans = 3g fiber). Grape Juice Extra: Drink Welch's 100% Grape Juice with fiber (8oz = 3g fiber).

Get more fruits and veggies: Be sure to include at least two servings of fruits or vegetables at each meal and keep some fruits and vegetables cut up in the fridge for easy nibbling. Grape Juice Extra: Just 4 ounces of Welch's 100% Grape Juice counts as a serving of fruit.
