Making the Move to Healthy Choices
SECTION
Introduction
Purpose
everyone at all ages needs to eat healthy to perform at his or her best
whether it’s for leisure and recreation activities or for competitive sports.
the goal of the Making the Move to Healthy Choices toolkit is to make
it easier for recreation, sport and community food service providers
to provide more healthy food and beverage choices in their facilities
and at events. By offering healthy choices in these settings we
1
encourage and create opportunities for people to eat healthy.
the Making the Move to Healthy Choices toolkit has been
developed through the eat great and Participate program and
is intended for food service providers in recreation, sport and
community facility concessions, canteens, snack bars and
special events. in some cases, recommendations may apply to
vending machines. it also includes strategies for marketing
healthy choices, food safety considerations and easy to
prepare healthy recipes.
Some of the facilities and events that we hope will use this
toolkit to increase the healthy food and beverage choices
they serve include:

Adopting healthy behaviors early in life is important for good health. Recreation, sport and community
settings provide a place for community members of all ages to come together to enjoy being physically
active. it makes sense to also promote healthy eating in these settings.
in 2010, a provincial survey of Food, Beverages and Food Service equipment in Recreation Facilities in
newfoundland and labrador showed that most recreation food service providers offer primarily unhealthy
food choices. Based on a sample of 35 facilities, the top four food choices were chips, chocolate bars, hot
dogs and fries.
Most commonly available food choices served in Newfoundland and
Labrador recreation facilities, 2010 survey.

Eat well and be active today and every day!
Take a step today…
The benefits of eating well and being active include:
t Better overall health.
t Lower risk of disease.
t A healthy body weight.
t Feeling and looking better.
t More energy.
t Stronger muscles and bones.
Be active
To be active every day is a step towards better health and a healthy body weight.
It is recommended that adults accumulate at least 2 1⁄2 hours of moderate to vigorous
physical activity each week and that children and youth accumulate at least 60 minutes
per day. You don’t have to do it all at once. Choose a variety of activities spread
throughout the week.
Start slowly and build up.
Eat well
Another important step towards better health and a healthy body weight is to follow
Canada’s Food Guide by:
t Eating the recommended amount and type of food each day.
t Limiting foods and beverages high in calories, fat, sugar or salt (sodium) such as cakes and
pastries, chocolate and candies, cookies and granola bars, doughnuts and muffins, ice cream
and frozen desserts, french fries, potato chips, nachos and other salty snacks, alcohol, fruit
flavoured drinks, soft drinks, sports and energy drinks, and sweetened hot or cold drinks.
Read the label
t Compare the Nutrition Facts table on food
labels to choose products that contain less
fat, saturated fat, trans fat, sugar
and sodium.
t Keep in mind that the calories and
nutrients listed are for the amount of
food found at the top of the Nutrition
Facts table.
Limit trans fat
When a Nutrition Facts table is not available, ask
for nutrition information to choose foods lower in
trans and saturated fats.
