Information

The rapid rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases represents one of the major health challenges for the coming century. Cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes accounted for the majority of deaths in Lambton County in 2000. These diseases reduce not only the quantity but also the quality of our lives. Until recently, we thought of these diseases as medical conditions that struck an unfortunate few, who were occasionally saved by medical miracles. Now, guided by scientific research, we know that many of these diseases can be prevented by making positive lifestyle changes. The purpose of this manual is to help worksites implement healthy living programs and policies. The healthy living programs focus on the four common preventable risk factors for chronic disease: tobacco use, physical inactivity, unhealthy eating and stress.

Follow The Food Guide Pyramid

• The Food Guide Pyramid is a picture of what to eat each day. It’s super easy to follow and will help you plan your daily menu.

• Fruits and vegetables provide essential vitamins and minerals, fiber, and other substances that are associated with good health.

• Low saturated-fat diets rich in fiber-containing grain products, fruits, and vegetables may reduce the risk of heart disease and some types of cancer.

• Milk products provide protein, vitamins, and minerals and are a great source of calcium.

• Monounsaturated fats lower total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) and increase the HDL cholesterol (the good cholesterol). Nut, canola, and olive oils are high in monounsaturated fats.

• Drinking enough water is essential to keeping hydrated, converting food into energy, and carrying nutrients through the body.

• It's never too late to start eating well.

• Just like your grandmother told you, an apple day keeps the doctor away.
