Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. HARE = Processed foods Low fiber – starve good bacteria and lower immunity Simple Carbs – store excess fat and slow metabolism Processed Sugars – brief energy followed by a crash TORTOISE = Whole foods Use twice the amount of energy to break down Improves gut health Vitamins and Minerals No added chemicals More nutrients per calorie
  2. A food, typically a complete meal, that has been pre-prepared commercially and so requires little cooking by the consumer.
  3. A food that is believed to be good for your health Fresh unprocessed foods Raw state Has not been frozen or subjected to any form of preservation
  4. 95% of the $1.9 trillion spent in health care goes to treat illness and only 5% of the expenditure is invested in prevention services use of effective interventions, such as disease management, post-discharge care, and case management for key chronic conditions could produce substantial savings, perhaps as much as $45 billion per year. According to the USDA, healthier diets could prevent at least $87 billion per year in medical costs, lost productivity, and lost lives.
  5. From a study done at Rutgers University, cutting back on unhealthy habits can possibly result in substantial annual savings More info on this study?
  6. Would you paying for the convenience of your food or for nutrition from food? Need to focus on the Cost per potion to actually find out the price of food you eat. Fast food: Drive thru meal for $6, this is one meal that someone would typically eat at one sitting Home cooked: Grocery store trip for $10 Couscous = $2 (shows 4.5 servings but I get atleast 8 servings) = .25/serving Turkey = $5.54 / 4 = $1.39 Green beans = $.98/2 = $.49x2 = $1 TOTAL = $2.13/serving  $8.52 for all the groceries and you are getting atleast 4 meals out of it Think about it: $20 for a week of meals or $6 a day for one meal (lunch) for a week ($35) Best bang for your buck
  7. Grains, such as bread, oatmeal, pasta and rice, are the cheapest foods no matter how you measure by portion, weight or calories. •Protein, such as meat, chicken and fish, is the most expensive food by portion size, but there are low-cost proteins such as beans and eggs. •When looking at price per portion, fruits and vegetables are lower in price overall than unhealthy foods. The price of potato chips is nearly twice as expensive as the price of carrots by portion size Hummus = $2 Carrot Chips = $1.64 $0.50/serving It might take a bit more time and planning to put these foods on the dinner table each night, but at least now you know you can afford to try!
  8. A plate showing portion sizes of 100 calories worth of strawberries, broccoli, potato chips, bread and M&Ms used to counter the perception that it's cheaper to eat junk food than a nutritionally balanced meal. (U.S. Agriculture Department/Associated Press) So you could get more food for less calories.
  9. How else are we saving? Calories and cost
  10. Calorie Dense They provide energy from calories without other significant nutritional value Nutrient Dense They provide more nutrients than calories How much you get from one thing
  11. Look at all the nutrients just one serving is and how little it cost.
  12. For a family of four Eating at home can provide multiple leftover meals and even have leftovers be used in different dishes throughout the week to save money, for the same price of one sit down meal at a fast food restaurant. This home cooked meal will be more nutrient dense also which will sustain hunger longer and reduce overeating. It might take a bit more time and planning to put these foods on the dinner table each night, but at least now you know you can afford to try!

  18. Rinsing can vegetables removes 30% of the sodium.
  19. These descriptions must be truthful, but don't confuse them with the term "organic." Only foods that are grown and processed according to USDA organic standards can be labeled organic. Fewer pesticides severely restrict the use of food additives, processing aids and fortifying agents commonly used in nonorganic foods, including preservatives, artificial sweeteners, colorings and flavorings, and monosodium glutamate (MSG). Organic farming practices are designed to benefit the environment by reducing pollution and conserving water and soil quality.
  20. Growth hormones and pesticides used in dairy and meat. The pesticides can accumulate in the fatty tissue of the animal. That is directly passed on to the consumer. While organic food is mainstream now and can be found in nearly all grocery and health food stores, visiting Farmer's Markets is one of the best ways to find organic foods and support your local community

  23. Fresh food goes bad fast is a common complaint. Why is that? The foods aren’t filled with preservatives. So, we have to store smart to get the most out of our purchases. Asparagus in cup of water
  24. Place fruits and vegetables in separate, perforated plastic bags. Use within 1-3 days for maximum flavor and freshness. Store each group in different produce drawers in the refrigerator to minimize the detrimental effects of ethylene produced by the fruits on the vegetables Produce That Creates Ethylene Gas: Apples, apricots, avocados, ripening bananas, blueberries, cantaloupe, citrus fruit (not grapefruit), figs, grapes, green onions, honeydew, ripe kiwi fruit, mangoes, melons, mushrooms, nectarines, papayas, passion fruit, peaches, pears, peppers, pineapple, plums, prunes, tomatoes and watermelon. Produce That Is Damaged by Ethylene Gas: Asparagus, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, cucumbers, eggplant, green beans, kale, kiwi fruit, leafy greens, lettuce, parsley, peas, peppers, potatoes, romaine lettuce, spinach, squash, sweet potatoes, watercress and yams.
  25. To prevent moisture loss, store fruits and vegetables separately in a paper bag, perforated plastic bag, or ripening bowl on the counter away from sunlight. Ripening fruit in a bowl or paper bag can be enhanced by placing an apple with the fruit to be ripened. After ripening, store in refrigerator and use within 1-3 days Many fruits and vegetables should only be stored at room temperatures. Refrigeration can cause cold damage or prevent them from ripening to good flavor and texture. For example, pink tomatoes ripen to a better taste and red color if they are left at room temperature. In the refrigerator, they do not turn red, and even red tomatoes kept in the refrigerator lose their flavor. Keep away from direct sunlight. *Store garlic, onions, potatoes, and sweet potatoes in a well-ventilated area in the pantry. †Cucumbers can be refrigerated for 1-3 days if they are used soon after removing from the refrigerator.
  26. This graphic gives examples of where to store food products in the refrigerator and pantry
  27. Convenience is a plus for quick meals at drive thrus and processed food at grocery stores. Once you get in a routine, you will find you not only are saving money but time and frustration by pre-pepping your own foods at home.
