- *Franco's stomach growls*
- Mmh, I'm so hungry but I don't feel like cooking anything . i've been trying to eat clean but it's not always easy with what I have in my fridge.
- I remember hearing from my health teacher in high school that if your food choices are limited, it is better to look at your choices and assess based on what you need rather than what you want.
- Keeping the information from high school in mind, Franco heads to his fridge to observe his options. He takes the time to look at nutrition labels, knowing that nutrients play a big part in this decision. He decides to look for food with minerals and vitamins, against his leftover chicken chalupa from Taco Bell.
- Minerals help to keep your bones, brain, heart, and muscles working properly, while vitamins help resist infections and keep the nerves healthy. I'm keeping these in mind. I could quickly cut up some fruit and grab a glass of milk or I can save the time and munch of my chicken chalupa. Milk and fruit are packed with nutrients and minerals, but my Taco Bell meal is nowhere near that.
- As much as I would like the flavorful taste of a taco, I decided that I would take a few extra moments to provide for my health by choosing to make a fruit salad and have a glass of milk on the side. I am confident with my decision and feel that after this snack I will feel great and hopefully this will continue as a healthy lifestyle for me.
- This was a great learning experience for me. I feel that it is important to take care of yourself and your body by not only through self-care, but also through what you eat. Checking nutrition facts can help guide you to your healthy lifestyle, as well as being educated on the good and the bad sides of what you WANT to eat vs. what you NEED to eat.
