Since 2011, Better 4 You Meals has provided schoolchildren healthy and nutritious meals, and now serves 70,000 meals each day. In addition to its compliance, analysis, and waste management services, Better 4 You Meals distributes meals for the National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program (SBP). The SBP ensures that millions of children start their day with a nutritious breakfast, a routine that has a host of physical and cognitive benefits.
Eating a balanced breakfast is associated with higher academic performance, better mood, and a lower risk of obesity. This is because hunger can reduce a young person's ability to concentrate, remember information, and answer questions correctly. Additionally, children who skip breakfast often exhibit more behavioral problems. To ensure more students are eating a healthy breakfast, today's schools are offering flexible options to suit children’s needs and schedules. For example, some schools allow children to eat their breakfast in the classroom or later in the morning.
