  The alarming increase with childhood obesity has arrived at epic proportions.servsafe testToday, there are actually over 25 million heavy children and teens which happen to have us begging the question - will be your child eating too much?
  Schools are a child's home away from home. We trust these institutions to teach our children without beginning to see their potential health chance implications. Americans are eating excessively not compensating for the added calorie consumption with physical activity. School meals are several contributing factors in youth obesity and these educational systems are now being forced to re-evaluate their own food service programs.
  
  School food service programs that employ age appropriate portioning don't guarantee the delivery of proper nutrition. The Specialized Milk Program, for case, offers a variety of flavors of milk (in individually sized plastic containers) to meet USDA requirements of nutritional standards. While there is absolutely no denying the need with regard to calcium in growing bone tissues, flavored milk has more sugar compared to a can of soda. Sugary beverages are among the list of causes of childhood weight problems.
  
  In a few instances, federal nutritional standards actually end up promoting an imbalanced percentage of starches and protein with optional fruits and vegetables. However, as obesity becomes rampant in our educational system, some programs are fighting back. The Healthy School Program but not just uses age appropriate portioning, and ensures that all food groups are contained in nutritious and healthy mediums. This program also replaces standard vending machine options of salty snacks and sugary drinks using less fattening choices enjoy baked snacks and 100% juice.
  
  The Available Set Go! - School Breakfast Program was started to help promote the importance of breakfast in preparation for a busy day. Children who eat lunchtime actually consume more nutritional vitamins throughout the day and will maintain healthier weights than those that pass on the primary meal.
  
  The Country wide School Lunch (NSLP) method provides age appropriate sections and better quality foods which has a higher percentage of dietary fiber, calcium, vitamins, minerals, and lower levels of sugar. Traditionally, students have selected their lunches from your la carte items which include pizza and French fried potatoes, often leading to some sort of weight gain of seven pounds on the 36-week period from your fries alone. The NSLP ensures that food standards not typically met by in-school meals may not be only met, but in portion-conscious, healthy ways.
  
  The fresh Fruit and Vegetable "Snack" Program is doing amazing things. Served in age appropriate portions, the fruits and vegetable option led to better attention spans within children, less disciplinary issues throughout the day and increased overall health with less nurse outings. By implementing a method that promotes healthy ways of eating, children were more apt to practice healthy choices every day.
  
  School food service programs that employ age appropriate portions are certainly not always healthy, but now and again, they can be really rewarding to children, moms and dads, and schools. The restructuring of this in-school meal options are a direct result of the rampant nature associated with childhood obesity - which are often prevented by teaching healthy ways of eating both at home as well as at school.

  Have you ever wondered if the food you were preparing in your house was safe? Have you ever wished you'd a friend, a parents, a grandma to call and get a food question? Have you resorted to calling ones county's Extension Agent to help ask a question about safe food handling? Have you thrown something away, boiled the idea extra long, or turned meat to a hockey puck because you may weren't sure?
