Do you know how much sugar you are feeding your kids for breakfast? Whether it be in their cereal, in their juice or in a snack you give them as they run out the door. Dr. Dan Kehres, a wellness physician in Saginaw says most kids are taking in too much sugar in the morning at breakfast time and is causing them to crash in the middle of their day.

Dr. Kehres suggests whipping up a healthy shake in the morning for your kids. It may be difficult for kids to eat their veggies, but if they are whipped up together with some fruit, most kids are more likely to indulge.

GreatLakesBayMoms.com talks about shaking up your kids breakfast for a healthy start to their day.

Dr. Kehres offers health classes, healthy tips and inspiration on his blog. For more info, visit: http://www.kehreshealth.com.

This week, on our morning show segment, I will have our local wellness physician Dr. Dan Kehres as our guest, discussing how much sugar is in some common breakfast foods, as well as some useful tips for getting your kids (okay… and yourself!) to eat more healthy, without spending a lot of time in the kitchen. Dr. Kehres has a wellness and chiropractic care practice in Saginaw and also offers health classes, healthy tips and inspiration on his blog. For more info, visit: http://www.kehreshealth.com.
