There’s good news for parents who are looking for ways to help their teens make healthier choices when it comes to eating and exercise. There is a brochure from the Weight-control Information Network (WIN), a national information service of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health, called “Take Charge of Your Health: A Guide for Teenagers.”

It’s designed to help parents support their teens’ efforts to live a healthier lifestyle, particularly as the school year gets under way. Here are some examples. Choose Healthy Foods And Beverages

• Walk or bike to school. Just be sure to stay safe.

• Cover half your plate with fruits and vegetables. Try dark green, red, and orange vegetables, which have high levels of nutrients you need, such as vitamin C, calcium and fiber.

For more tips, teens can check out WIN’s “Take Charge of Your Health: A Guide for Teenagers.” This brochure features more ideas for consuming healthy foods and beverages and being physically active, a tool for planning healthy meals, and a tip sheet that teens can post in their lockers to remind themselves to stick with healthy habits.

• Drink water or low-fat or fat-free milk, and avoid high-sugar beverages like soda and energy drinks. This may help you consume fewer calories from added sugars, which provide energy but few or no nutrients.

Contact WIN to get your free copy of the brochure. Or go to www.win.niddk.nih.gov/ publications/take_charge. htm to read and download the brochure.

• Avoid pizza, candy and fast food. Be More Physically Active • Commit to being physically active for 60 minutes a day. It’s fine if you can’t do it all at once. You can be active for as little as 10 minutes at a time, spread throughout the day.

For more information, call WIN at 1-877-946-4627 or visit www.win.niddk.nih. gov. You can also like WIN on Facebook at www.facebook.com/win.niddk.nih.gov.

• Choose activities you like. Try soccer or basketball, or go on a hike with friends.

Job Corps Works

F

or many young people, traditional paths to successful careers do not always take a straight, well-marked line.

The expense of college, family turmoil, economic hardship and other unexpected events can alter a young person’s plans. To increase the opportunities available for all young people, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the bill that created the Job Corps 50 years ago. As the nation’s only federally-funded, residential job-training program for disadvantaged youths aged 16 to 24, it has helped more than 2.7 million young people. At more than 120 Job Corps centers across the country,

students are trained in more than 100 occupations-from culinary arts to health care, and from advanced manufacturing to information technology. They can earn a high school diploma or GED. Heavyweight boxing champion and entrepreneur George Foreman is a Job Corps graduate.
