One More Reason to Kill Your TV


Reuters: TV-less family dinners best for healthy eating

Well, duh.

But wait, there's more. It's not just that families are distracted and don't talk to one another - that wasn't the focus of the study. It's not the usual media exposure and negative physical effects of TV. No - it's that kids eat fewer fruits and veggies when watching TV at dinner.

Bottom line - if you can't bring yourself to kill your television, at least turn it off during dinner. Please.
