There's no debate that healthy eating is good for you, but too often, teens don't make smart choices when it comes to food and activity.
Two high school classmates prepare for a debate on healthy eating, a nutritionist gives advice, and student interviews give a "real life" view of eating habits.
From them viewers learn:
~ The F-A-T-S method of eating and activity
~ The P-L-A-N method of changing bad eating/activity habits
~ Why the Food Pyramid matters
~ How to use a hunger scale to control eating
~ How reading food labels can help teens make good choices
