- If you have food allergies and need to stay away from wheat or dairy (these do contain almonds)
- When at school you are looking for satisfying snack, that also keeps your kids going, energy foods that hold up well in a locker
- Your kids come home from school and are hungry before dinner and need something to satisfy their sweet tooth, but you want your kids to avoid the high fat, sugar and sodium content of some popular protein bars and snacks

• Walking: Walking is a great form of exercise. If 2 miles are covered in a day, then it is very good, or walking on a pedometer will also help.
Eating tip- Eating an oat based cereal for breakfast, before walking will give slow burning energy.
• Running or Jogging: Running or jogging requires training also, because it may harm oneself if there is a sudden change from a no exercise regime to strenuous exercise.
Eating tip- Drinking water both before or after exercising, and also for every 15 minutes of exercise.
• Cycling: Another pleasurable form of exercise is cycling provided there is less traffic
Eating tip- Having a meal of pasta or rice at least one hour before cycling. Food should be low in fat and have less sugar.
