After the Holidays



In January, look for New Year, New You tips from Sage Fruit to help you get moving in 2011. We all set New Year's Resolutions and who doesn't want to be more healthy. Here's a tip for today:

Eating an apple before a meal can help with weight loss. Apples are high in fiber that when eaten before a meal can help fill you up. Also apples are naturally sweet which can help curb sugar cravings. So an apple a day keeps the doctor and pounds away!

Kids in Force



In 2010 Sage Fruit Company implemented the Kids in Force program to educate our youth on the importance of health and nutrition ultimately empowering them to their full potential and a healthier lifestyle.

Childhood Obesity is a growing epidemic that is affecting our future. School programing has struggled with funding for Health Education and after school activities leaving our children without healthy options. Through Kids in Force, we hope to educate and get our children involved in making healthy eating decisions as well as encouraging them to play and get physical activity each day.

The Kids in Force program is a free service to our community. Parents can find resources and tools on the Sage Fruit website about health and nutrition. Our website has a special section for kids to interact and learn with various downloadable activities like coloring sheets, connect the dots and games. These activities have been created to help educate our youth on the importance of a healthy lifestyle. Given the alarming increase in childhood obesity and diabetes, we must make changes now to promote health and chronic disease prevention as adults.

To learn more about the program and to download the official Kids in Force points sheet, visit our website at www.sagefruit.com or our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/sagefruit.

Our kids are our future! The Kids in Force program rewards kids for making healthier decisions like eating more vegetables and fruit as well as choosing to participate in more sports and physical activity.
