"  Two encouraging developments on the healthy diet front:  Slashing Salt: Kraft Foods just announced that it will cut the salt in its foods by 10 percent over the next two years. Other companies including Campbell Soup Co. and ConAgra (which owns Hebrew National and Chef Boyardee) are also reducing the salt in their products. This is great news since experts say we Americans eat way too much salt, and packaged foods are a big culprit. But still, check the salt amounts on everything you eat. Guidelines recommend that we have just 2300 milligrams, or one teaspoon, of salt daily. (And I bet most of us\u2014including myself\u2014inadvertently eat way more than that.) Saying No to Soda: PepsiCo is pulling all of its beverages from schools around the world by 2012. Both Pepsi and Coca-Cola stopped selling their sodas to schools in America four years ago, but Coca-Cola still sells to schools outside the U.S. who request it. And honestly, I say, why not? They have a product to sell. School officials\u2014adults\u2014make the decision whether or not to have sodas in school. It&amp;#039;s up to them to take responsibility for setting a healthy example and say no. -Amy Brightfield, Health Director "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
