If your organization is faced with high health care costs, you, like many employers, may be turning to worksite health programs to help employees adopt healthier lifestyles. Workplace nutrition has expanded over the past decade to encompass the creation of an overall culture of health within the worksite. Designed to support healthy behaviors in the workplace, diet and health education seminars enable employees to improve and maintain their workplace nutrition, prevent or control chronic disease and reduce healthcare costs, lowering their risk of developing costly chronic diseases and improving productivity. Maintaining a healthier workforce can lower direct costs such as insurance premiums and worker’s compensation claims, and positively impact many indirect costs such as absenteeism and worker productivity.
It’s clear that America has a big problem-a big weight problem. More than 35 percent of adults across the country are considered obese, with a BMI greater than or equal to 30. They total more than 78 million people. Our diet and health education seminars and offsite kitchen demonstration programs will help you address these and other important, health-related issues.

- January: National Birth Defects Prevention Month and Healthy Weight Week
- February: American Heart Month and National Eating Disorders Awareness Week
- March: National Nutrition Month

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to you for presenting the chair exercise and cooking demos at our Staying Strong with Healthy Bones event. The demonstrations were perfect for conveying the message of the role of calcium intake and exercise in bone health. Both demonstrations synthesized our message of bone health education in a very fun, engaging manner – just like you! Thank you also for working with me to provide the food and presentations at a price that met our budgeted grant-funding amount. The veggie wraps were a huge hit with the audience. You presence made our event a fun, educational and memorable experience for our participants. The participant evaluations indicated that it was a very successful event. Your participation greatly contributed to making the event the success it was. Once again, ‘thank you!’ You’re the BEST! Cindy S. Moskovic, Director, Iris Cantor-UCLA Women’s Health Education & Resource Center
