For Kids, Healthy Eating Starts At Home, According To GfK MRI



It is not school lunches as that overweight imbecile Michellesie "The Cow" Obama would have us believe?
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree when it comes to healthy habits, according to GfK MRI's American Kids Study and its supplemental Parents Study. According to newly released data, parents who purchase low-calorie or organic foods and parents who don't keep junk food at home have children who are more likely than the average child to express healthy eating-related attitudes.

Parents who teach their children to read nutrition labels appear to have the most health-conscious kids. The children of these parents are 88% more likely than the average child to read nutrition labels, 47% more likely to avoid fattening foods, 37% more likely to stay away from sugary foods, and 31% more likely to play sports to stay in shape.

On the other hand, parents with no nutrition rules have children who are far less concerned with healthy lifestyles. Kids with no rules regarding food and nutrition are less likely to pay attention to sugar or far content, to read nutrition labels, or play sports for exercise. Moreover, they are 68% more likely to eat whatever they want.

"These data clearly show the impact parental rules and behavior can have on children," said Anne Marie Kelly, SVP, Marketing & Strategic Planning at GfK MRI. "This is just one of the many new insights available in The American Kids Study. For the first time, subscribers can now access the American Kids Study and Parents Study within the same database -- a new benefit that allows marketers to take a much closer look at how parents and their children sync up."
Duh.
