Here are some a couple of links to give you an overview of health-related issues we're facing:

  • Adults still harbor childish anti-veggie attitudes - Washington Post

  • America's Obesity Crisis - TIME Magazine

    Certain fad/radical diets (i.e Atkins) have become so popular but are all about low-carb consumption, resulting in heavy protein and fatty meals which by themselves is obviously just not right. There has to be a balance, and EatBetterAmerica.com provides some insight to the balanced approach. As people approach different stages of their lives, one must realize that new conditions need to be realized and prior habits need to be curbed/changed to continue keeping themselves healthy. I myself am guilty of thinking my body is still a 20-something year old machine *drats*.

    EatBetterAmerica.com is extremely interactive (it is Flash based) and therefore they've intelligently taken into account the multiple ways to constantly provide readers with information. When pages are loading, bubbles with inspirational / funny / educational quotes pop up.. my favorite so far was 'It's ok to constantly crave knowledge. Brownies not so much!'

    EatBetterAmerica.com is a site that I would highly recommend even if you arent interested in the standard pamphlet type information all the other 'eat better' sites provide.. here's why EatBetterAmerica.com is different:

  • Interactive Tests - quickly assess your health and what can be done to correct yourself
  • Community - one can ask questions to experts, and even find people in your geographic region whom might share your same health goals whom you can meet up with.
  • Food - Tons of healthy recipies divvied up by what your intentions are (i.e. diabetic-friendly, weight management, vitality and Heart Health)
  • Fitness - Interactive quiz which takes in your preferences and provides a valuable alternative set of activity/exercise ideas one can do. Since i sit at a desk from 9-5 I picked up the idea of parking farther from my office to get in a healthy walk.

    EatBetterAmerica.com at one point (probably still do) even provided little blue rubber rings which you could wear at all times to visually provide you a reminder to 'Eat Better' which is inscribed on the inside of the ring. These little helpful supporting reminders are what many people need to just nudge them into getting a healthy side of veggies instead of something deep-fried.
