Most Americans Find It Hard to Eat Healthy Lunch at Work

In today’s world, it seems we are always on the run,  1000 mph going to this meeting and to the next event & taking kids to a from soccer camp, and so on.  So the American Heart Association put together a little survey and it has revealed this about America’s ugly eating habits at work. I’ll admit I’m guilty of it 100%.

 77 % percent say that if they could eat healthier at work, they’d likely eat better outside of work. 91% of the survey respondents said they’d like to eat healthier at work if they could, and 68 % would like employers to make healthier options available.

AHA Nutrition expert Anne Thorndike says her research backs up that claim, noting, “In a recent study of employees at a large hospital, my research group recently showed that the employees who made the least healthy purchase in the hospital cafeterias were more likely to have unhealthy diets outside of work and to have higher rates of obesity, prediabetes and high blood pressure.”

So today ty to escape and grab a bite outside of work and make it a good one, I’ll try to join you
