Promote Reading Literacy

     Writing what I know is always the easiest, but taking on a challenge just inspires me.  I’ve always been a believer in incorporating story time in a child’s daily routine.  Reading to a child is so important, that research shows that if you read a book to a small child every day, that by the time they reach kindergarten– they could already be reading themselves.  Now that is what I call a worthwhile investment in your child’s future!

       Just fifteen minutes a day for story time is a powerful beginning to promoting reading literacy.

Sugar Alcohols Slowly Metabolised Carbohydrates

Sugar Alcohols such as Maltitol and Lacitol are sugar substitutes and are slowly metabolized carbohydrates that generally causes a smaller rise in our blood glucose levels.  Fructose “sweet sugar” found in many fruits and honey, has a low glycemic index as  it takes a long time to be broken down by the body, which results in slow release of sugar as well.
