​​​​​​Replace white processed sugar and artificial sweeteners with natural sweeteners:

- Sucanat (sugar in its most natural form)

  chlorophyll, has no carbs or calories, and actually provide some health benefits.


- Brown rice syrup: contains no fructose                   


- Raw, organic, local honey or Manuka honey (NOT commercial honey) in small quantities is a

  good substitute.

  antioxidants, low glycemic, and has no calories.

- Pure maple syrup:  Usually comprised of approx. 70% sucrose, with a low fructose level.

School Wellness Programs for Faculty, Students & Parents

- Replace table salt with Himalayan crystal salt or sea salt

Himalayan pink crystal salt is far superior to traditional iodized salt.

* Contains the same 84 natural minerals and elements found in the human body

* Not exposed to toxins and impurities since it has been maturing over thousands of years under

   intense tectonic pressure

* Its minerals are tiny enough for our cells to easily absorb because they exist in a colloidal

   form

* Can assist in many bodily functions (such as reducing muscle cramps, promoting blood sugar

   health and promoting healthy pH in your cells)


Sea salt is also a better choice over regular table salt.
- Contains about 80 mineral elements that the body needs 
- Has nutrients and minerals that help your body preserve the blood cells 

Other alternatives to table salt are Kosher salt, kelp, or dulse/dulce
