Should Kids Be In The Zone?
ZoneChefs Kids, a Mini-Me version of the adult food-delivery service ZoneChefs, was launched last week in New York City and goes nationwide Feb. 15. Based on the Zone diet (40% carbohydrates, 30% protein and 30% fat), ZoneChefs Kids home-delivers three child-friendly balanced meals and two snacks for $29 a day. Says Dr. Alan Salem, a pediatrician who helped develop ZoneChefs Kids: "We are teaching children to make healthy choices." Others disagree. "Kids don't need to diet," says Dr. Arthur Davidson, chairman of the board of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians. "To take weight off kids, all you have to do is take the sugar out of their meals." --By Kate Betts
