A Health Challenge for All Camps

Posted on June 8, 2015 by Bev Unger

Dr. Clive Schwartz, Assistant Professor Paediatrics University of Toronto, Developmental Paediatrics, The Hospital for Sick Children and 13 year Camp Physician, presents all Canadian camps with a practical challenge.

Dr. Schwartz is challenging ALL camps that make and serve food to decide whether they continue to use products in their kitchens with a significant Saturated and/or Trans Fat content for frying and baking or heed his recommendation to consider the available alternatives.

To help us he provides this link to his teaching notes: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/s1daq8oe1le12t4/AAA-tJlmR5W0p4LFLh8pA1Aba?dl=0

Please let us know if you are going to take the “Know Your FA(c)TS” challenge this summer. We would welcome your feedback at info@ontariocamps.ca.
