One of the great things about FoodSmart is that each participant gets to choose which parts of the program they want to watch, and in what order. Based on the way an individual answers the initial questions, FoodSmart will recommend segments that may be most helpful. However, people are still free to view the soap opera, game show, or other nutrition topics first.

A brief preview for each type of segment used in the FoodSmart program is provided below...

  Soap Operas

"SISTERS AT HEART"
The storyline follows a gripping courtroom drama where a woman is on trial for the murder of her unfaithful and very wealthy husband. Just when it looks like she is headed for jail, a key witness arrives and reveals the husband was not killed by his wife, but rather by high fat foods!

This soap opera is focused on adult health and teaches participants about proper nutrition to promote health and prevent chronic diseases like cancer and heart disease.

" BABY OH BABY"
A woman who is initially faking her pregnancy in order to gain inheritance from her deceased lover, learns the healthy choices she must make to play the part of an expecting mother. The plan begins to fall apart when she learns she truly is pregnant by her current boyfriend, and it only gets worse from there!

Mixed in with this storyline there are important messages about prenatal nutrition to help keep mother and baby healthy. This segment is great for any adult who is expecting, or plans to become pregnant.

"YOU BE THE JUDGE"
This game show features a celebrity judge who quizzes participants on their knowledge about planning a balanced, low-fat meal. Based on how the user answers, the Judge will provide correct answers and explanations about how to better choose foods that are low in fat.

This section helps people avoid common misconceptions about foods they may think are low in fat, but indeed are not.

Other game shows include:
"Baby Feeding 101” which focuses on infant nutrition, and "Name that Food” which focuses on healthy food choices

Due to the interactive nature of the game shows our programming software for these segments can not be adapted for web previews
