Halloween Horror and some alternatives

Prevention Magazine reports in its October, 2008 magazine that 3 handfuls of candy corn equals over 700 calories, the caloric equivalent of a Big Mac and small fries-OMG!

If you want to give out a more "wholesome" treat, Alison Sweeney, host of The Biggest Loser, has this tip: give out individual cans of Play-Doh.

I think this is a great idea although your trick-or-treaters might not think so. If you must give out sweets, Junior Mints has less sugar per serving than many other treats.

In Health,

Laura
