Mark Hyman Children Quotations

Paradoxically Americans are becoming both more obese and more nutrient deficient at the same time. Obese children eating processed foods are nutrient depleted and increasingly get scurvy and rickets, diseases we thought were left behind in the 19th and 20th centuries.

We need a grassroots movement and government policies and programs to change the food landscape and the built environment to give our children a chance to have happy, healthy successful lives.

Most schools have only a microwave or deep fryer, hardly the tools needed to feed our children real, fresh food.

Children with obesity and diabetes live harder poorer lives, they often don't finish school and earn much less than their healthy counterparts.
