Diet and Nutrition Tips

Carbs Are Not the Enemy

Carbohydrates are the body’s go-to source of energy for both movement and thinking, and they’re especially important during growth.



Cutting them too low often leads to kids feeling flat, tired, and cranky by the afternoon.

You Can’t Out Train a Bad Diet

Movement is important, but it doesn’t replace the role of balanced meals and regular eating.


Food and exercise work best when they’re working together, not one trying to make up for the other.

Missing breakfast might seem like a shortcut, but it often leads to more hunger later in the day.



Even something quick like toast or yoghurt in the morning can help stop energy crashes mid-morning.

Fruit’s Not ‘Too Sugary’—That’s a Myth

Whole fruit comes with fibre, water and nutrients that help the body process natural sugars slowly.

Treating it kindly and responding with food helps more than trying to ignore it.
