Nutritional Tips
Research shows that if you eat together as a family, it helps children eat less junk food and more fruits and vegetables.
Replace white stuff with the brown stuff…brown rice, whole wheat bread (without corn syrup as an ingredient), whole wheat pasta.
Read the ingredient labels on food packages and choose foods with “whole” in the grain or flour name of the first 3 ingredients.
Add a green vegetable to dinner every night.
Snack right by eating an apple, banana, or strawberries at snack time

In 2009, St. Joseph Health System introduced the VIRGIN HEALTH MILES program to employees at its system office. We wanted to ensure that our own employees are able to take advantage of our wellness initiatives, allowing them to be more productive and satisfied with their work. On any given day, employees can be seen taking the stairs instead of the elevator and making other healthier choices while wearing there Virgin Health Miles pedometer. Since its rollout, hospitals throughout the system have implemented the program to help their employees get moving. |
