Sugar, Fats and Childhood Obesity. How Vending Machines In Schools Are Helping To Fight Them.

Childhood Obesity

So my hard drive just recently crashed and I’ll be without a computer for the next few days, but I could not let this one go. My friend just sent me an article on the state of the obesity rates in the U.S. Bad news people. 28 states had a rise in obesity rates just last year. Yes, that is more than half of the United States. It is hard to believe, but the economic downturn may have been a factor (I have not seen any facts on this so do not quote me). With this news I felt troubled. There is so much data showing that obesity causes terrible health problems like diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. All can cut a life way too short.  Yet the rates still rise. It seems that you cannot persuade adults as easily, but it looks like children are not so stubborn.

It also said in the article that childhood obesity rates have stabilized. Great news right. Kids are healthy again.

Not so fast, 16.4 percent of children aged 10 to 17 are obese and 18.2 percent are overweight. Crazy statistics.

So more good news cause that is more fun to write about anyways. A recent poll showed that 80 percent of Americans think childhood obesity is major problem. Even without the polls one can see the changes being made at all levels of government where the community demands it. We need more of this, but here are some of the changes being made.

  • The First Lady’s health program “Let’s Move”
  • Health care legislation that gives support to obesity-related project
  • Nutritional standards for meals and snacks

So here is where making sure vending machines in schools are filled with only healthy items. Snacks are vital to children who cannot consume enough food, because the bellies are so small, to last them very long. Snacking is the only way for them to have the energy they need to succeed in school. Keep up the fight, and we will get those statistics turn around.

Healthy Drinks for Students

When the winter fades and the sun climbs higher in the sky and the heat descends sometimes only a cold refreshing beverage can offer relief.  Many times the only place to find that cold drink is in a soda vending machine.  Your options are soda, soda, and soda. Alright, your probably saying that most soda vending machines offer water, but think about a young kid’s decision making process.  They are not thinking about health or nutrition they are thinking about the latest coke ad and what tastes the sweetest.  We cannot ask children to make these decisions. Childhood obesity is at epidemic levels because the children have been choosing foods without the future in mind.  Our brain does not register liquid calories as it does with solid foods need to be chewed. We already discussed the ABCs of choosing from snack vending machines in Part 1 and now here is the ABCs for soda vending machines.

ABCs for Picking Healthy Options from a Soda Vending Machine

A. Water is your friend

  • Our bodies are 2/3 water and we always need more of it
  • Water helps all bodily functions work for efficiently

B. ONLY 100% Fruit Juice

  • Fruit juice that is not 100% is just sugar water
  • 100% juices provide vitamins and minerals

C. Carbonation is BAD

  • Carbonation causes a reduction in calcium in the blood. Low calcium = weak and brittle bones
  • High sugar levels in colas increase the chance of developing diabetes

Now you have my ABCs for making healthy choices from drink and snack vending machines. So, when your are starving and you can only find a vending machine at your school follow these ABCs and it will help you maintain a healthy life.
