SET YOUR MIND TO IT AND DO IT!!! = Sodas, chips, candy, oh my!!= Are you the type of person that likes junk food? Well most kids around the age of 10-14 think that they couldn’t live without. Out of all junk food, Candy and sodas are probably the most popular. Sodas, chips, and Candy are so addicting because of the high sugar and caffeine amount. It’s almost just as addicting as smoking. With food though, you can stop whenever. Step 1: Step away from the soda. First you need to replace your favorite soft drink with a cool-aid type drink or water. Water is really what your body needs. It keeps you hydrated longer which makes your body feel better. Your mind stays alert and busy, which is __VERY__ good for school. During the summer more soda is drank then anytime in the year. That isn’t very healthy. Step 2: Snacks that are healthy! When you get home from school, or any other activity and your stomach is growling grab a apple, grapes, oatmeal bar, or another fruit or treat.

Just moderation, or portion, goes a long way. So now that you have these tips, try them!!
