The Better Choice

The YMCA/JCC is about healthy living and why we're committed to bringing you “Better Choice” options in the vending machines within our centers.  The machines will offer a variety of tasty items you’re already familiar with, however the selections will have:   no more than 6 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 30 grams of carbohydrates, and no more than 200 calories -- per package.  (“Better Choice” exceptions are nuts and seeds, due to the benefits of their high monounsaturated fat content.)  “Better Choice” options are being introduced weekly at a different center within our association.  

This week, Wolf Creek YMCA unveils the “Better Choice” vending selection.  For more information about “Better Choice” options, contact Sarah Bucher, director of healthy living, at sbucher@ymcatoledo.org or call 419.729.8135.
