A Healthy Dad This Father’s Day

June 13, 2008

Sunday is Father’s Day and what better way to tell dad that you love him than to give him a gift for his health? Good gift ideas for dad include:

• A membership at a local fitness center
• Small dumbbells
• Elastic exercise bands — great for dads who travel
• A water bottle for exercise or his office
• A sampler of healthy snacks
• A promise to go for a walk with him three to four times a week.
  

Another great way to show dad how much you care is to give him a gift certificate to visit a registered dietitian. To locate a registered dietitian in your area, visit www.eatright.org/findanRD.
