BodyLogicMD Supports National Nutrition Month

BOCA RATON, Fla.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--March is recognized as National Nutrition Month (NNM) by the American Dietetic Association (ADA) and the bioidentical hormone doctors at BodyLogicMD are encouraging women and men to be proactive about their health and incorporate balanced nutrition into their daily lives to broaden longevity and live the most hale and hearty life that they can live.

“One of the most important things we can do to improve our overall health is to incorporate balanced nutrition, regular exercise and stress-reduction techniques into our daily routines. When we make a conscious effort to be proactive about our health, we can prevent future health challenges and oftentimes sustain longevity.”

NNM was first launched in 1973 by the ADA and later became a month-long campaign in 1980, designed to educate the public on healthy ways to eat right, stay fit and live longer with balanced nutrition and a wellness-driven lifestyle. It is estimated that two-thirds of Americans are overweight – one-third of which is considered obese. Many experts believe that the solution to our current health crisis lies within our kitchens. In the long run, eating too much of the wrong foods and not enough of the good ones can lead to the onset of a wide variety of diseases.

“The way most Americans eat is killing our population,” shares BodyLogicMD Sacramento, CA. physician, Bob Ghelfi, M.D. “Not only are we making ourselves fat, but we’re also jeopardizing the health of our children. Twenty years ago, children consumed more milk than soda – now children consume nearly three times as much soda as they do milk. The state of American health is hanging on by a thread. Heart disease, diabetes and a host of other health challenges are running rampant and instead of furthering longevity, we’re actually retarding it with poor eating habits and sedentary lifestyles,” continues Dr. Ghelfi.

BodyLogicMD, leaders in anti-aging and the nation’s largest network of highly trained physicians specializing in bioidentical hormones, fitness and nutrition, whole-heartedly support the ADA’s commitment to health and wellness. BodyLogicMD physicians urge women and men to eat smart, sensible meals and keep in mind that what we put into our bodies is highly conducive to what we get out of it.

According to Dr. Ghelfi, “One of the most important things we can do to improve our overall health is to incorporate balanced nutrition, regular exercise and stress-reduction techniques into our daily routines. When we make a conscious effort to be proactive about our health, we can prevent future health challenges and oftentimes sustain longevity.”
