Nowadays teenagers are constantly bombarded with unhealthy food choices and high calorie temptations that make gaining weight easy- candy, pizza, chips, soda. This all adds up to a vicious cycle of poor choices which leads to low self-esteem. Eating healthy doesn't mean that you have to give up your sweets totally, but knowing what you're eating and what's in your food can help you make better, healthier choices.
There are many apps for smartphones that make it easier to count calories and make healthier choices. MyFitnessPal is one that is excellent. It's free to use plus you can scan bar-codes from your food. It also has a fast food and exercise entry.
Here at BodiWorxx, our mission is to help teens fight obesity and get healthy. Having an app on your phone helps you to keep track of how many calories that you are consuming. We want to help our teens make healthy choices while they are out or at home.
BodiWorxx is beginning to work with the schools to create and send out health blogs, videos to our active users.
Our passion and devotion is to help fight teen obesity and to educate adolescents about nutrition and healthy eating and exercise.
Let's start taking action now. Teen obesity should end here and now. It's time to teach healthy behaviors and nutrition information to adolescents so they can spread their knowledge to future generations.
The more we know as consumers, the easier it will be to make healthier choices that nourish our bodies and improve our well-being.
Now go make a difference today :)
