Thank you to Sally for sharing an e-mail with me today that included these pictures. These are all good examples of public health in action. I am sure they are probably widely viewed but their messages are both important and funny.
Shouldn't the healthy choice be the easy choice? Well it definitely isn't. We fight a daily uphill battle to be a healthy society and our healthcare costs and chronic disease rates scream the need for change. Hopefully this blog can bring attention to some of the (ridiculous) barriers to being healthy in our everyday lives. If you see something here that inspires you, makes you angry, or just plain makes you laugh then this blog has done its job. Take those thoughts and run with them. Talk to a legislator, your local McDonalds, your workplace, WHOEVER can enact the change, and tell them that you want the healthy choice.
We are always looking for more material (aka pictures, videos, stories) to add to the blog so please share with us at mdreisin@gmail.com, jennifercmorgan@gmail.com, or ashby.tyler@yahoo.com. If a picture is worth a thousand words, hopefully with your help we can have volumes to share.
