Rachael opens her stage to these inspiring American teenagers, who through diet and exercise, lost almost half of their body weight.

It is estimated that one-third of American children ages 2 to 19 are overweight or obese. Moreover, overweight children are at much higher risk for being overweight adults. Therefore, successfully treating childhood weight problems early on is necessary to paving the way for a healthier future.

Tune in to the Rachael Ray Show to listen to these amazing young adults share their stories and what they learned that can also help keep your kids healthy.

Tune In: Teens Who Lost Half Their Weight on the Rachael Ray Show

In keeping with their conscious theme, each cute Y-shaped chubby bottle is 100 percent recyclable and 100 percent reusable. What is even more fun is that each bottle comes in a Y Knot that allow the bottles to stick together so that your child can build and connect things. It’s like Lego for water bottles!

Y Water comes in four different flavors, each providing different nutrients and containing 40 calories per nine ounce bottle. The four flavors are:

Brain: This mind-charging drink contains Vitamins C, B6, B12, molybdenum and Zinc. Zinc has been linked to mental acuity and the vitamins are needed for brain development.

Immune: This virus-fighting drink contains antioxidants Vitamin C, E, A and B6 which can help stave off all those germs.

Bone: Calcium, Vitamin D, fluoride and Vitamin A round out this bone-strengthening booster.

Muscle: With minerals like magnesium, potassium and selenium, this Y Water assists in muscle repair  – perfect after a tough game of soccer.

Unfortunately, Y Water is only available at limited Whole Foods Markets in California, Arizona and Nevada, but you can order these cute sippers online and stash them in your child’s lunch box for a beverage that you both can feel good about.

Y Water is a Healthy Kid-Friendly Beverage

One of his latest ventures is adapting the Omnivore’s Dilemma for young readers, which is a great opportunity for children to learn at a young age the importance of eating healthy, but equally important for understanding where the food they are eating comes from. If we are going to help kids make better choices, we need to give them the information they need to make smart decisions.

The new version is slated to be loaded with lots of facts, photos and graphs to help reinforce the messaging, which is: It’s time to take control of what we eat and where it comes from. We do have influence over the food system in our country, but it takes all of us making personal choices that will help enact that change.

The Omnivore’s Dilemma: The Young Reader’s Edition is being released on October 15 and can be pre-ordered on Amazon.com.
