Episode 81 - Healthy Food

NOTE: This episode is no longer available for CEs.

Snacking sure is great. But, snacking isn't usually the healthiest choice available. Since chiding people to eat better doesn't seem to be cutting down the worldwide obesity epidemic, it looks like we'll need behavior analysis to save the day. What does the research tell us about food preferences and promoting healthy food choices at a young age? And is there any way that we could make the whole thing some big, fun game? This podcast comes with and without cheese. You know you're choosing the one with cheese.

Remember, all this April, a portion of CE processing fees will be donated to the New England Center for Children, a school for individuals with autism and a home of behavior analytic research and training. By applying for CEs from ABA Inside Track, you'll be donating to a worthy cause. It's win-win!
