<p>Sometimes a family member or friend needs encouragement to make a healthy change. Try these tips to start a conversation about eating healthy.</p><h2>Say why eating healthy is important.</h2><p>“Your health is important to me. I care about you and want you to live a healthy life.”</p><p>“A healthy diet can help protect you from high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, bone loss, and some types of cancer.”</p><p>“Little changes, like drinking water instead of soda and eating more vegetables and fruits, can make a big difference in your health.”</p><h2>Take the lead. Do it together.</h2><p>“There are simple things we can do, like trying oatmeal or whole-grain cereal for breakfast.”</p><p>“Let’s go grocery shopping together for healthy foods.”</p><p>“Let’s try to cook and enjoy a healthy meal together at least twice a week.”</p><p>“Let’s try eating at least 2 vegetables with dinner.”</p><p>“Next time we go out to eat, let’s share a meal. Or we can each order our own, but only eat half. We’ll save the other half for lunch the next day.”</p><h2>Offer to help.</h2><p>“How can I help you eat healthy?”</p><p>“What is the hardest thing about eating healthy? What can I do to support you?”</p>
