Proper health and nutrition have been a high priority in my life for many years. When I became a mother I knew that I also wanted my children to adopt the principles of healthy eating.  I have searched for a curriculum that teaches God's Word along with proper nutrition, and how the body works.  I was even considering putting one together myself, but I had no idea how to go about it. Growing Healthy Families: Nutrition 101:Choose Life is an answer to prayer. 

Nutrition : Choose Life has broken down each part of the body in simplistic terms for parents and children to easily understand and learn together. I knew  alot fo the information, but I wasn't sure how to present it, especially to my 6 yea rold son.  Through this curriculum I was able to present all of the information in a pleasing and fun way along with Scripture to accompany and back up all of the information. 

Having a nutrition curriculum be Christ-centered is a rare and precious commodity.  As a Christian homeschooling mother, I strive to show my children that God is in everything because He made everything. Therefore due to the fact that He made everything, he understands best how everything works, and what He has made to pair together with other things to make it all work so to speak. 

I think it our fast paced society where we go through the drive thru, and scarf down our burger, fries, and colas right after school and before soccer practice it becomes exceedingly easy to forget our Creator is also involved in what we not only feed our temples spiritually, but physically as well.  When we open the door for the Lord to lead us in every area of our lives, including nutrition we will certainly blessed by our obedience in seeking His will. 

It is highly important to understand how the body works, and what the food we eat does to each part of the body.  All of the body parts work together in order to run smoothly, but when one area becomes deficient other parts of the body try to compensate. This curriculum will teach about the brain and nervous system, the digestive system, the musculuar and skeletal systems, the cardiovascular and immune systems, the endocrine system, respiratory system, olfactory system, and the auditory & visual sytems.  

The language used in the Nutrition 101: Choose Life is easy to understand. There are fun tips as well as yummy recipes. I highly recommend this curriculum. Concerning  all of the cancer on the rise along with obesity issue that children and adults are currently experiencing, looking to changes in everyday living including diet being high on the list makes Nutrition 101 a necessity for daily living.
