Abstract:
School-based, primary prevention programs can be effective in improving children's dietary intake of fat and saturated fat and in increasing their self-reported levels of physical activity. School environments can be modified to provide healthier food options in the school cafeteria and to increase the amount of moderate to vigorous physical activity occurring during physical education class.
