Give vour daughter the secrets of good health "Like mother, like daughter." daugh-ter." There is no denying the influence a mother has on her daughter impressions that can last a lifetime. One of the most meaningful contributions, a mom can make is to teach her daughter how to live healthfully. healthful-ly. One of the most important ways to do that is to show your daughter how to eat well, says Dayle Hayes, R.D., a nutrition consultant and eating disorder specialist in Billings, MT. Three ways to have an impact: 1. Pile up the plant food. Help your child learn to love fruits, vegetables and whole-grain foods such as breads and cereals, cere-als, knowing the more she eats, the better it is, advises Hayes. Whole-grains, fruits and vegetables vege-tables make a significant difference differ-ence in protecting against the biggest health risks facing women-heart disease, cancer and stroke. Studies suggest eating five to nine servings a day may reduce the risk of heart disease , by 20 to 40 percent. Whole-grain food may also reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes, and fruits and vegetables can help with weight management. 2. Drink wisely. Beverages can be a boon or a bane for health adds Hayes. Steer your daughter toward the former by providing the best choices at home. Low-fat milk should be standard fare. It gives her essential es-sential vitamins and minerals needed to build strong bones.
