EATING HEALTHY CAN SAVE LIVESIn the US nearly half (approximately 150 million) of all Americans suffer from at least one chronic medical illness. Medical conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and hyperlipidemia make up the majority of these diseases. The US spends over 1 trillion yearly on medical costs due to chronic diseases.
Healthy nutrition combined with physical activity helps to provide heart health protection and decrease chronic diseases such as high blood pressure, heart disease, high cholesterol, diabetes, and obesity that can lead to chronic illness and early death.
