Features 


Foods, with benefits
They reportedly do everything — from boosting brain power, preventing cancer and reducing belly fat — but what role should certain foods, dubbed "super foods," play in our everyday diet?

Prescription poundage
"Everyone has seen those stereotypical commercials with the woman curled up on the couch with her glass of wine and slice of cake after a long day," says Dr. Ted Weltzin, director of eating disorder services at Rogers Memorial Hospital of Oconomowoc.

Back to basics
You’ve probably heard the phrase "you are what you eat," but most people who are shaped like an apple or pear probably aren’t eating enough of those fruits.

Eat smart
Eating well is hard. But switching from the kind of diet that most Americans eat to the kind that nutritionists want you to eat is even harder.

Moms know best

If we are what we eat, then parents should listen carefully to two local moms when it comes to their children’s health. Oconomowoc’s Joelle Lefevre and Delafield’s Mindy Dorff (aka the "Yum Yum Sisters") have started a new Web site called www.yumyumsnacks.com. The site is a one-stop shop and parent resource for families seeking healthy nutrition choices.

Escaping the excess edibles
Traditionally, overeating at the holidays is viewed as an act of heroism in Wisconsin households. Just ask my cousin P.J. who’s jackknifed over a card table piled up with a flock of smeary Chinet plates. Muffled, transcendent sounds push out from behind his teeth as he rocks to-and-fro alongside the nativity set. He’s working out on his third, hideously KC-Masterpieced joint of ribs.

Make family dinners a healthy priority
Between work, school, extra curricular activities, sports, and day care it is hard to imagine that families would have time to sit down and eat together, much less make a well-balanced meal. Yet, no matter how busy life gets, many Washington County families are still keeping supper time and nutrition as priorities.
