Eat to live: the connection between food, digestion and diabetes

Emily Betts

Published September 2008

Tools for this Unit:

Student Resources

Kid Health Teen Website www.kidshealth.org/teen>

This website includes three very useful sections: Food and Fitness, Recipes, and Diseases and Conditions (Diabetes). It is very accessible for the students and is a great resource for them.

Fitday www.fitday.com>

This website is an amazing way for students to keep track of their nutrition and exercise. It would be very time consuming to do year-round, but this could be a really great week or month-long activity.

Gmap Pedometer http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/>

If your students walk or run, this website is a great way for them to track their distance or work out good routes to take. Uses Google map technology.
