How Kristen Bell and Dax Shephard Get Their Kids to Eat Healthier
Dax—who earned a degree in anthropology from UCLA—has also chimed in with his hard-earned wisdom.
“Anthropologically speaking, we crave sugar because it was so scarce throughout history and because nothing that’s ever been poisonous has tasted really sweet,” Kristen explained, reciting the knowledge she’s gleaned from her husband of 10-plus years. “But the reality is, it doesn’t make us feel good. So we talk about a lot about the outcome. And that’s also where movement steps into the picture. We talk a lot about, if you’re feeling sluggish, maybe it’s because you haven’t moved your body today.”
But, mostly, they just impress upon their daughters that there’s no need to be that perfect girl you think you have to be.
Said Kristen, “Allowing my kids to see that it’s something adults struggle with, and that we have to fight the need for wanting ice cream all the time, it makes them feel like we’re all on the same team.”
In other words, let it go, let it goooooooo.
