As the managing partner for AMPS International LLC in Pembroke Pines, Florida, James Amps specializes in accountability training. In his free time, James Amps enjoys cooking from scratch, a skill that was passed down to him from his mother.
Cooking offers many benefits compared to eating in a restaurant. This includes time to bond as a family, share family traditions, eat more economically, and avoid processed foods. A University of Michigan study found children who ate meals at home with their families experienced fewer behavioral issues.
By learning to prepare meals with their parents, children can develop a greater understanding of healthy eating habits. This includes the opportunity to try different foods and discover potential allergens, such as gluten or peanuts. For individuals with allergies, eating at home provides greater control over ingredients.
