Few doubt the benefits of
healthy eating for kids. In the short
term, a healthy diet improves behavior and performance in school, and in the
long term, it decreases the risk of cancer, heart disease, high cholesterol,
and high blood pressure. This is why
most parents fight the good fight: despite their kids' adamant protests, parents
limit McDonalds, force-feed some vegetables, and restrict junk food before
meals.
