| Hello/Intro Eating Return to index of stories... |
We're at the NH Food bank's warehouse in Manchester where volunteers are busy sorting food. The warehouse may be full now -- but, 2006 has not been an easy year for the Food Bank. Hello, I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to NH Outlook. At one point, the Food Bank was facing a critical food shortage. Where do things stand now? That story in a moment. But we begin with LiveFit New Hampshire, an NHPTV community engagement project to encourage healthy eating and physical activity. Type-2 diabetes, once thought of as an adult disease, is increasingly affecting children. Doctors say obesity is partly to blame. A recent NH study suggests one in every three children is overweight or obese. The hope is to reverse that trend. Outlook's Phil Vaughn tells us about an Epping Family working to chart a new course in what they eat. 145-149 |

Shots of family in grocery store N1- Buying food for a family of six can sometimes be an adventure. Normally, Joanne DesMarais doesn't shop for groceries with her children, but today she is. And how she shops is changing. Joanne 2-355 "We would have cookies, pop tarts, chips. But now I don't buy those anymore." N2- And Joanne's son Matt is the reason. Joanne 1-115/131 "He was 117 lbs at 5 and a half. He had high blood pressure. That's when we got referred to a specialist at D-H in Hanover and looked him over and that's when we learned he had an enlarged and hardened liver." Matt 2-4300/4220 Phil -" How were you feeling at that time, do you remember? Scared. What kind of foods were you eating at six? Candy, ice cream, cotton candy." Marina 2-4550 "There was a lot of junk in the house because that's what he ate and he wouldn't eat anything else." N3- Startled by what was happening to her son, Joanne and her husband decided to change the way they ate - less processed foods - more fresh. Marina 4700 "When we'd go to the store they'd see boxes with cute cartoons on them and mom would say, you can't get that." Dr. 2400 "I think the way Matt's family has done it is the way to go." N4- Mary Ellen Brauninger is a nurse practitioner at the Dartmouth-Hitchcock clinic in Manchester. She works with Matt and his family. Dr 1905/1934 "What we're trying to do is educate the family in terms of diet and exercise and diabetes down the road. This whole family has made a dramatic change with regards to lifestyle modification which is what a family should do because its hard for one person to change without everyone else in the family changing. Joanne 1-54 "When the Dr stated that he had to go on a diet I turned to my husband and said everyone is going on a diet. I'm not singling out Matt it's not fair. We revamped the whole house." N5- And they received help. From Terri Schoppmeyer, a nutritionist with the University of NH's Cooperative Extension. Terri 3040 "I didn't need to convince her of anything she just needed some tools some knowledge of what to do how to find healthy foods within a reasonable food budget." Joanne 1-224/1320 "Terri came here and we basically went through the cupboards and started revamping, she taught me how to read the nutrients on the side of the box and we took away a lot of the saturated fat and a lot of the sugar. Phil - How does a six yr old respond to that? When we first started he'd say there's nothing good to eat in the house. Sorry bud this is the way it's going to be because I don't want you ending up in the hospital being sick." Terri 3445 Phil - "What are some of the factors that lead to poor diet? I think one of the big factors is cost. Joanne is good now at balancing the cost of food vs the nutritional value of food." Joanne 1-728/811 Phil - "Were you on food stamps at that time? Still do. Is that a challenge to budget? Fresh fruits and vegetables are more expensive. How did you deal with that? All I can say is I dealt with it. I knew that our health is more important - we stressed as best we could." Terri 3705 "Meat takes up a lot of the food budget so look at other ways to get protein. Beans - if you're having tacos use only half ground beef and add some beans to it. So there are ways to eat on a limited budget but it takes more eating from scratch, eating more at home." N6- Reading nutrition labels while shopping helps, as well. 4-3205 Phil and Joanne in store - Phil "Do you look for individual ingredients? I look for…" Kids putting veggies in cart Marina 4838 Phil - "How does it go from being just a message to actually living that way? Start by bring them to the grocery store - lots of fruits and vegetables have color so have them pick out their favorite color and bring them home and if they like it keep doing it." N7- The family has cut back on saturated, trans fats and sugars. They've added more fruits, vegetables and whole grains to their shopping cart. 4-3405 Phil - "Most of what you bought is healthy - shows items - do you allow them treats? Yes, let me show you. " Terri 3815 "I think the biggest thing is trying to be good when you go to the grocery store because what you bring home you have to face for the week. So if you can be fairly diligent and have the shopping cart full of decent food that's what you're going to be faced with all week long. But it can be difficult." N8- One year after discovering problems with Matt's liver, his mother says he's lost nearly twenty pounds. Joanne 2-5414 "This is Matt in 2005. This is Matt in 2004 -- two years ago." Marina 4727 "He's done amazing well. I'm so proud of him. He's become so much more active that it's been great for the family too because its motivated us including my dad and he's not that easily motivated." N9- When eating well is a family commitment, the payoff is often better health. For NH Outlook, I'm Phil Vaughn. |

How the NH Food Bank fills that need. |
| Intro Food Bank Return to index of stories... |
The NH Food Bank collects and stores food - and then distributes it to more than 350 soup kitchens and food pantries thru out the state. In 2006 alone, it expects to distribute more than 4-million pounds of food. That's much "higher" than the previous year. So, why the jump in demand. Here to answer that question John Gennetti, Q JOHN: Why the SURGE in demand? Q Supermarkets No longer sending Food Bank EXTRA food? Why??? Q local food pantries feeling the pinch?? Q Do you expect the need to continue to climb in 2007 as well? Q If a viewer watching NH Outlook wants to do something to help what does the Food Bank suggest? Food Bank -- collects and stores food -- doesn't distribute it. |

| Intro Reading Labels Return to index of stories... |
Inventories are low here at the Food Bank -- where sugared drinks with minimal nutrional value make up 1/3rd of their donated food supplies So, Nutrition is a growing concern at the Food Bank, as it looks for new ways to provide a healthy selection of products. For anyone picking up a box of cereal or loaf of bread there's important nutrition information right on the label. Outlook's Phil Vaughn has more in this LiveFit NH report. |

Shots of Eileen and Danielle pushing cart through store N1- Stroll the aisles at the supermarket and the choices appear endless. Food - some healthy, some not. The task of knowing what's good for you can seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. Eileen Behan is a nutritionist and author from Portsmouth. She's with Danielle Gaudreau, a typical teen who has some typical questions about the information found on food labels. Calcium for example, many Americans don't get enough of it even though it's the best way to reduce the risk of osteoporosis. 7:15 "Lets look at some of these calcium products, do you know how to tell if a food is a good calcium source? Danielle: I think it's on here. Ok so this is a glass of milk and you look up here it says 1 cup, 110 calories, can you see how much calcium is in that, its right there. Danielle: yea it says 30%." Stand up - Eileen says there's a lot of information that can be pulled from nutrition labels. Fats alone provide interesting reading. There are some good fats such as mono and polyunsaturated like you get from olive, canola and corn oils. Saturated fats, most of which you don't need come from red meats, whole milk and ice cream. And then there's the dreaded trans fats - they come from vegetable shortening, many commercial baked goods and some margarines. Trans fats can clog arteries and reduce the levels of healthy HDL cholesterol. Eileen will also remind you that under the heading of nutrition facts there's important information about how much you're consuming. Eileen 930 "Let's look at the yogurt. Danielle: I see calcium right there, its 35%. OK and how big a serving is that? Danielle: the whole container is 1 serving. Eileen - And that's important too because the serving size if you drink this whole thing it's 440 calories, when they are talking about a serving its just one cup, so its always really important to get that label the right serving size." Shots walking the fruit isle Eileen 1540 - "What else? Danielle: We have the fruit. Eileen - What do you think of this? This is mixed fruit in light syrup. Danielle: I'm sure the syrup is not the best thing you could have. Eileen - Well lets compare, look at the label and we have a serving of 1 cup and its one of these little cups, and we have 70 calories and can you see the sugar, 16g, which is, well here's the gel, and this has 90 calories and 22g so its getting some more from the jello, and then we'll take this other one in pear juice, a half a cup which would be the same size as that, and what's the sugar, 8g, and part of that no matter what kind of fruit you have is going to have sugar in it, you can never be entirely sugar free but its really useful to compare the amount of sugar using this number you can compare products and get the lowest one." Stand up - While on the topic of sugars, Eileen advises to look for and avoid high fructose corn syrup. This popular and inexpensive sweetener seems to short curcuit the body's natural tendency to regulate and control body weight. Sound of them in cereal isle Eileen 11:17 - "Anything you want to know about fiber? Danielle: How much should an average person have a day? Excellent question, how do you think we might find that out? Danielle - On the fine print. Eileen - We were talking about, if you look down here, see it says 2000 calories, I call this a little cheat sheet, and it says how much fiber someone should have on 2000 calories and 2500 calories, how much should someone get on 2000 calories? Danielle: yea it says 25g. Eileen - So that means that someone who is eating 2000 calories, should eat about 25g of fiber. How much fiber do you think is in this cereal? So a serving size is 1 cup, and then we go down to fiber, and its 3g, so you get 3 g of fiber in one cup." Narr - That means, you'd still need to consume 22 grams of fiber in other foods if you want to reach that goal of 25 grams. Sound in isle looking at bread Eileen 19:38 - "This is whole grain bread. And why don't we look at the fiber content. 1 slice and right there, 4g of fiber, and here is an oat nut bread and 1g. Now would this surprise you that it has only 1g, so yea, the labels can be useful, this is surprisingly higher and fiber than this one. Danielle: Does that mean this one is healthier? Eileen - It depends what you're going for, if your looking fiber yes, and sometimes Danielle these products they have a name that sounds healthier but this is why a label is so useful. So when we're doing a label just to make sense, whenever we're looking at a label, you look at the calories and the servings, pay attention to how much calcium we've got, and the fiber and compare your sugar numbers. And Danielle I would like to thank you today for going grocery shopping today and picking out some good healthy foods. It was fun. Great thank you." Shot of them walking away down isle |

Obesity -- is Not the only challenge facing young people today. Tooth decay -- now ranks as the most common childhood disease. Most families are able to solve the problem by going to the dentist. But more than a quarter of New Hampshire's children have no access to dental insurance. As Outlook's Richard Ager shows us, the "Watch Your Mouth" campaign is hoping to change that. |
