Pritikin Program Achieves "Phenomenal Results" With Children
The Pritikin Longevity Center®, universally acclaimed for its success in helping adults launch healthy lifestyles, has now proven hugely successful for children as well.
Within the two-week program, children show solid improvements in the President's Fitness Challenge, and those who are overweight lose 5 to 10 pounds. What's more, notes Dr. Kenney, "most drop their cholesterol and triglyceride levels by an incredible 50 to 100 points."
Total family immersion is precisely what happens at the Pritikin Family Program. "Both parents and children learn how fun and rewarding a healthy lifestyle can be," says Dr. Kenney. Pritikin creates a camp-like atmosphere where kids, ages 9 to 15, play lively get-movin' fitness games, don chef's hats for "hands-on" cooking classes, and attend kid-friendly workshops on nutrition. On field trips, they even learn how to make good choices at fast food restaurants and food courts.
