Healthy families does make a healthier Idaho

Did you that 27% of Idaho's children (ages 10-17) are obese?  31% of our nation's children are obese. Obviously, these numbers are WAY to high.  One in three children are obese and are set up for a lifelong battle with various issues, including a higher risk for diabetes.

Starting healthy eating habits with our children and getting them active in the great outdoors lowers their chance (and yours) of becoming obese.  Grab an apple and head outside today!
