Late night talk shows
only partly to blame
for our lack of sleep
From Page 4
And I'm as guilty' as the next.
Television is partly to blame, with its nightly news, Sportscentre and
Daily Show at 11 p.m. and local news and late-night talk shows not
until 11:30 p.m.
While the solution to not getting enough sleep is simple •enough - go
to bed earlier - eating a proper breakfast is a little more complicated.
Here are just a few tips from the OHEA.
Set your alarm 10 minutes earlier, as this will give you plenty of time
for a real breakfast.
Keep quick and healthy choices on -hand, such as fresh fruit, individ-
ually sized low-fat yogurt cups, a handful of nuts mixed with raising in
snack -sized bags, small cartons of milk or. 100 per cent juice and low -
sugar cereals such as Shredded Wheat or Cheerios. .
And finally, remember to set a good example. Kids do imitate others,
especially their parents. .
