The latest HSE Talking Health and Wellbeing Podcast talks all about Healthy Lunchboxes for Kids. As school routines start again and parents get to grips with what foods to put into those lunchboxes and what to avoid.
Marian McBride, Dietetic Lead, HSE Health & Wellbeing discusses the importance of a balanced diet to ensure children develop a healthy relationship with food. Recognising that parents are busy, she explains that it’s about exposing children to a variety of different healthy food regularly and explains there are daily opportunities to introduce healthier options into children’s meals or snack times. This episode also discusses the HSE resources available to schools and teachers, to help them create a healthier food environment in school.
All our episodes are available on Podbean, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and the HSE Health and Wellbeing YouTube channel.
