Screen Time and Caffeine

Limit Caffeine IntakeSCREEN TIME
Tuning OUT is good for you and your children! Watching television, playing video games, or using the computer keep us indoors, often mindlessly munching on snacks. Limiting screen time can help us stay physically and mentally active. 60 minutes on weekdays, and up to 2 hours on the weekends should be plenty.

ENERGY DRINKS
Cravings for caffeine and sugar can be a reflection of inadequate sleep, inactivity or boredom. Rather than simply hiding the symptoms, why not take the healthier route? Managing your fitness, sleep and screen time should keep you feeling energetic all day without the need for energy drinks.
