Healthy Halloween Tips
By Dr. Mary Starr Carter
Healthy Halloween Tips:
1) Frame your kids for how much candy they can eat during Halloween and each day afterwards.
2) If you have will power go through the candy and freeze candy bars and treats in small portion size snack bags.
3) Choose lower calorie treats like lollipops. Dum Dums or Organic Lollipops
4) Be the Geek who gives out apples
5) Play-Doh makes a Halloween Trick or Treat size you can give out.
6) Family Video sells Video Rental Cards for a $1 each (great if you get a dozen or so trick or treaters)
7) Make sure you kids have enzymes if they are going to eat all those carbohydrates like Essentialzyme-4 by Young Living
8) Have Young Living's Peppermint oil on hand to rub on belly's that overeat
9) Have your children drink lots of water during treat season
10) THROW IT AWAY…. do you really need all that sugar poison… (of course this is my vote)

I gave small boxes of raisins one year. I don’t want to spend money on candy so I don’t. Marijo Harvey
Oh you are such a hoot! Love the costume 🙂
These are excellent tips, and we absolutely need to be reminded that sugar depresses the immune system. And I can so relate to the geek who gives out apples.
Most of us are unable to avoid temptation but Peppermint Oil is excellent for those weak moments. Thanks
Oh Goodness, I have such a sweet-tooth!! I love Kashi cereal, with or without milk and I also love to snack on a few nuts and craisins, to try to curb the sweet call!
I have a few of the young living oils, peppermint being one of my favorites and just love the grapefruit, tangerine and lemon for the much needed water:)
Love all of the tips, 1-10!!
