Sugar as Food
A healthy and pleasurable lifestyle means treating
ourselves with loving care. Just as we enjoy the first warm breeze
of spring or the first snowflakes of winter, we enjoy other pleasures,
including eating our favorite foods and sharing good times around
the table with family and friends.
Eating for a healthful lifestyle means enjoying all foods within
the context of a balanced, sensible and delicious diet. A balanced
eating plan includes a variety of foods, in the right portion sizes
to provide the calories and nutrition the body needs to look and
feel its best.
Regular physical activity is another essential ingredient in a healthy
lifestyle. As with eating, moderation is best. A "weekend warrior" who
exercises only on Saturdays and Sundays receives far less benefit
than a person enjoying a moderate amount of physical activity on
most days of the week. When
you eat sensibly and are physically active, you feel good and can
enjoy all that life has to offer. Done right, you can increase your
pleasure and increase your health.
This brochure will show you how enjoyment of food, healthful eating
and physical activity go hand in hand.
