It’s no secret that Americans like fast and processed foods, but who could blame us? These are the foods we grew up with, plus fast food is convenient and relatively inexpensive. However, we now know that we make up for those low prices with health risks, leading to medical costs.
Several programs nationwide have been launched in hopes that people will change to healthier eating habits, such as the Let’s Move! program, which aims to get healthier foods in schools.
The US government also recently developed the MyPlate system as a guideline for healthy eating. As opposed to the food pyramid, MyPlate focuses on individual meals and making knowledgeable choices before eating.
Along with changing food, a Wisconsin health insurance policy is a necessity for obtaining a healthier lifestyle. Your health is your most important asset and you can never take enough precaution with protecting it.
