We are kicking off an EatWell/Live Well Campaign with members of our local Chamber of Commerce. It is a voluntary program that lasts for eight weeks to encourages participants to loss weight by walking 10,000 steps a day, eat five fruits and vegetables and reduce sugary beverages. Our jurisdiction includes the cities of Barberton and Norton in Northeast Ohio. This interactive website is an excellent resource that we would never be able to afford to create. Thanks. Health Commissioner Kline

The booklet is very appealing visually and very informative. My clients have expressed special appreciation for the restaurant section. The BMI chart has been an "eye opener" for some. It is NOT expensive in quantities and clients feel like that they are really getting something for their money - better than black & white copies.

I am an RN / Health Coach for chronically ill patients. I frequently send this to my patients. It is complete and the best resource I have found anywhere- and I have looked everywhere!!!

It’s free via PDF
The price is obviously due to the cost of making the publication. It’s free via PDF. Everyone wants something for nothing.

This is quite expensive in considering using for clinic pt. education.
