Kids who eat breakfast have energy to start their day

and get moving, maintain a healthier weight, and

have improved academic performance.

The fiber, vitamins and minerals in fruits and veggies

will help keep you healthy.

Getting at least three servings of dairy each day is a

deliciously easy way to help build and maintain

strong, healthy bones, muscles and teeth!

Whole grains are carbohydrates (our body’s main

source of energy), are important sources of fiber,

and contain many vitamins and minerals.
