Healthy Home-Ec is based on an 18 week schedule that includes a reading selection on the first day of each week, followed by cooking the next 4 days of the week. Shopping lists are already made and organized for your convenience. The recommended foods and ingredients used in this curriculum are organic, preservative-free, whole grain and natural. Students can also earn a semester high school elective credit by completing this course. 

A few facts from the Healthy Home Ec book:

• Americans consume about 170 pounds of sugar each year, leading to many illnesses.

• Many of the foods you currently are eating may contain trans-fatty acids, artificial ingredients, preservatives, and other "added ingredients" that could be dangerous.

• Certain foods contain healing ingredients.

• It has been said that more children are harmed by what they eat than by drugs, alcohol and tobacco combined.

• The Bible suggests foods to eat that are healthful, and foods to avoid.
