  • BACK TO SCHOOL - Breaking the Fast

    23/08/2019 Duração: 30min

    Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.  The most appealing benefit is that breakfast jumpstarts the metabolism and, helps burn more calories throughout the day. When children eat breakfast it’s telling their body that there are plenty of calories to be had for the day.  It helps them pay better attention in school and to consume key nutrients they need to grow, like calcium and complex carbohydrates and healthy fats.   Kids Under Construction, 404 748-0569 https://kidsunderconstruct.wixsite.com/kidunderconstruction?fbclid=IwAR2fWhbzdjX88P9nEa9PyBipE8gUSqKjFF7FBKACavEQrx3njWfnBrsUkuQ
