We are pleased to announce that AYSO Region 1161 has joined with Herbalife in promoting child nutrition
Herbalife Tips:
In order to operate at peak efficiency, a childs body needs
the right nutrients. Armed with a little bit of nutritional
knowledge and planning, you can help your son or
daughter compete with even more energy and effort.
TAKING THE FIELD
Good nutrition goes hand in hand with physical activity. So
what should you give your kids before they take the field for
a game or practice? Focusing on carbohydrates is a good
place to start. Carbohydrates are the foods that fuel
muscles and are easily digestible compared to proteins
and fats, especially in growing children. Some good
carbohydrate-rich choices are cereals, pasta, rice or yogurt.
And remember to give your kids a meal at least one to
three hours before competition. This will give them time to
digest their food and have them focused and ready to play.
SUITABLE SNACKS
There are also plenty of nourishing, healthy snacks
available, such as nuts, sunflower seeds, peanut butter
sandwiches and bagels. Another great snack idea is
fresh, colorful fruits and vegetables. Theyre naturally
sweet snacks that also contain the fiber and nutrients
kids need.
Make sure to avoid giving kids sugary snacks like candy,
pudding, pastries and soda. Foods high in sugar content
cause energy peaks and valleys, which leave kids tired,
irritable and unable to concentrate.
AFTER THE GAME
What kids eat after a game or practice is just as important
as what they eat before. Your child's body will be rebuilding
muscle tissue and replenishing energy for up to 24 hours
after competition. So it's important that the post-game
meal be a balance of lean protein, carbohydrates and fat.
In the end, its all about healthy, active kids. Making good
nutritional choices for your kids will not only give them a
competitive edge, but youll also be reinforcing good
nutritional habits to last a lifetime.
