Every
person has a key role to play in the pursuit of healthy living.
Eating healthy foods promotes healthy weights and reduces our risk of
contracting serious diseases and chronic conditions that lower our
quality of life and add to rising health care costs.
Many factors influence the foods that we eat, such as cost,
availability, advertising, and knowing what is good to eat.
Improvement of our health includes addressing these factors.
Since food and nutrition are key components in the
promotion of health and the prevention of disease, please browse the
