Food & Health
Whether young or old, male or female, tall or short, everyone needs to eat. Food is the cornerstone for survival. We also know that what you eat and drink and how much affects your health. Everyone can afford to eat better and everyone needs to be active, especially with skyrocketing health care costs. Food, nutrition, and health are important for each and every person:
- Almost one in five children are considered overweight
- Foodborne illnesses account for 76 million illnesses each year
- Seven of every ten Americans die from preventable chronic diseases like heart disease
