From the Big Screen to the Little Screen

While Salva Tres Palmas was on the big screen, my sister Sharon appeared on NBC's the Today Show to talk about healthy eating habits.


Sharon appears 90 seconds into the video.

One thing I learned from watching was how to choose the right type of carbohydrates. Sharon, a registered dietitian, said to choose carbs that are high in fiber and low in sugar (who knew?). Her rule of thumb for selecting carbs, which I really thought helped clarify things, was:

Pick carbohydrates that contain more than 3g of fiber and less than 10g of sugar (per serving).

Happy snacking.
