Diversity&Inclusion
Health,Nutri;on&Safety:ObesityAwareness&
DiversityandInclusion
Certain studies suggest that children of higher socioeconomic backgrounds, rather than more disadvantaged backgrounds, benefit more from interventions. Policy-makers and practitioners must therefore consider the potential impact of interventions to ensure that obesity prevention does not deepen existing
inequalities. The focus of obesity prevention interventions should be on protecting the right of all children to a healthy start to life.
Strategies and programs need to prioritize the inclusion of vulnerable groups,
particularly children with disabilities. Children with special learning needs, for instance, can be provided for by recommendations and guidance on the modification of population-based strategies for specific groups. It is also important to ensure that
children are not disadvantaged on the basis of gender.

Children at orabovethe95thpercenKlehaveobesity.Obesity is defined as body mass index (BMI) which is a measure of body fat based
on height and weight. A person is considered obese when his or her BMI is 30 or higher. The reason BMI increases, is due to eating more calories than the body
uses. The extra calories not used in physical activity are stored in your body as fat.

A Brief History of USDA Food Guides
1916 to 1930s: “Food for Young Children” and “How to Select Food”
Established guidance based on food groups and household measures Focus was on “protective foods”
1940s: A Guide to Good Eating (Basic Seven)
Foundation diet for nutrient adequacy Included daily number of servings needed from each of seven food groups
Lacked specific serving sizes Considered complex
1956 to 1970s: Food for Fitness, A Daily Food Guide (Basic Four)
Foundation diet approach—goals for nutrient adequacy Specified amounts from four food groups Did not include guidance on appropriate fats, sugars, and calorie intake
1979: Hassle-Free Daily Food Guide
Developed after the 1977 Dietary Goals for the United States were released
Based on the Basic Four, but also included a fifth group to highlight the need to moderate intake of fats, sweets, and alcohol
1984: Food Wheel: A Pattern for Daily Food Choices
Total diet approachCIncluded goals for both nutrient adequacy and moderation
Five food groups and amounts formed the basis for the Food Guide Pyramid
Daily amounts of food provided at three calorie levels First illustrated for a Red Cross nutrition course as a food wheel
19
June 2011
1992: Food Guide Pyramid
Total diet approach—goals for both nutrient adequacy and moderation Developed using consumer research, to bring awareness to the new food patterns
Illustration focused on concepts of variety, moderation, and proportion Included visualization of added fats and sugars throughout five food groups and in the tip
Included range for daily amounts of food across three calorie levels
2005: MyPyramid Food Guidance System
Introduced along with updating of Food Guide Pyramid food patterns for the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, including daily amounts of food at 12 calorie levels
Continued “pyramid” concept, based on consumer research, but simplified illustration. Detailed information provided on website “MyPyramid.gov”
Added a band for oils and the concept of physical activity Illustration could be used to describe concepts of variety, moderation, and proportion
2011: MyPlate
Introduced along with updating of USDA food patterns for the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans
Different shape to help grab consumers’ attention with a new visual cue Icon that serves as a reminder for healthy eating, not intended to provide specific messages
Visual is linked to food and is a familiar mealtime symbol in consumers’ minds, as identified through testing
“My” continues the personalization approach from MyPyramid

RecommendedSodiumIntake
The Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends the following “adequate intakes,” per
day:
• 1,000 milligrams (mg) for children aged 1 to 3
• 1,200 mg for children aged 4 to 8
• 1,500 mg for people aged 9 to 50
• 1,300 mg for adults aged 51 to 70
• 1,200 mg for seniors over 70 years of age.
Sodium plays an important role in the body. Salt is essential for: 1) fluid balance,
2) muscle strength 3) nerve function
U.S. guidelines call for less than 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day -- about 1 teaspoon of table salt.
Half of Americans should drop to 1,500 milligrams a day.

Daily Activity Schedule
It's a good idea to let parents know what your daily schedule is. When parents know your schedule, they can make better decisions about when to drop off or pick up their child, which may result in less disruptions in your schedule. It also gives parents a general idea what activities their child will be participating in.
Your Schedule can be as simple or as detailed as you wish.
