Thank you to all the staff at the Partnership for a Healthier America Summit for organizing such a wonderful summit. Meeting such a diverse group of attendees, educators, industry experts, and health care professionals has been really rewarding. I had a chance to meet Darryl McDaniels DMC of Run DMC who has been helping out the PHA by releasing music to help the healthy messaging and music cause (songs can be downloaded here)
At her keynote address, the first lady Michelle Obama @FLOTUS encouraged us to use whatever tools necessary to continue the battle against unhealthy foods, neighborhoods, and schools and to improve school meals, physical activity opportunities to enable the nation's youth "to feel like they can move mountains.” Also announced were two initiatives, #GiveMeFive which encourages people to do something healthy for five days in a row like cut out sugar, and the other campaign was the launch of Team FNV which is recruting celebrities and athletes to support the eating of fruits and vegetables. Jessica Alba, Colin Kaepernick, Victor Cruz, Cam Newton,
