Thursday's Trend Alert Dirt Report #50



A few weeks ago, my mom and I ran a 5k in Stone Harbor, NJ to raise awareness for Childhood Obesity.  As a wellness advocate and a fitness professional, I am very familiar with this "epidemic," but feel strongly that most Americans do not fully understand the consequences of unhealthy eating. 

Knowing that my "strides" could only make a small difference, I was thrilled to see that this video had gone viral!  It's powerful montage of key moments in a heart attack sufferer's life personifies the poor choices that impact overall wellness.  

With its continued "likes" on Facebook and "shares" on social media, it is my hope that Americans will think twice before noshing on an XL bag of French Fries or slurping down a 16+ oz cup of soda.
