Improving and Advancing Healthy Eating and Physical Activity Practices, Policies and Environments in Child Care

[@uncCHWRG @uncchwrg]

There is continued opportunity for increased healthy eating among young children. While ECE centers have opportunity for improvement in food offered, centers are great place to start improving the food provided to children. Good work @stephmazzucca and @ctluecking!

Virtually all toddlers (98%) are eating #AddedSugar. But their AS consumption has been going down. Is this good, bad, or beside the point? New data from @CDCgov, @eatrightPRO & #JAND. https://t.co/Z3dOEL50Mv

Pay attention to the #Evidence-#Emotion ratio. When evidence is low and emotions are high, bad decisions flow. Kudos to @TamarHaspel for great insight. https://t.co/eJXt0guYVD
