The short explanation of this alert was:

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, unhealthy eating and inactivity cause at least 400,000 deaths each year by contributing to obesity, cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. With two-thirds of Americans overweight or obese, we need to give people a fighting chance at eating better and maintaining a healthy weight. Please ask the major party presidential candidates if they are elected to implement policies such as:  

  • limiting the sale of soda and junk food from vending machines, a la carte (snack) lines, fund-raisers, and other school venues,
  • requiring fast-food and other chain restaurants to list calorie counts on menu boards and calories, saturated plus trans fat, and sodium on printed menus, and
  • banning artificially produced trans-fats from the food supply.

Please send the questionnaire below:
