That's a great idea!

Can you show me what we're doing in USA to help children and people develop the habits and discipline for long term lifestyle change?

Because I've never learned anything about nutrition, macros, high sugar content and all of the healthy food I should learn to eat on my own.

We did not have home classes in any of my education in US at all, they were a thing in the past but that wasn't a thing in my middle hs or hs or college at all in NY in 90s/2000s.

All of my bad habits were from my parents and they were not good eaters.

Yep, that’s key. That’s the lesson I learned as I commented above as GP.

My work offered me five visits with a dietician and then I got a health coach and a nurse all paid for and monitoring me on the side through the Vida service. Not everyone has that

Michelle Obama started a campaign to reduce childhood obesity and the right collectively lost their mind.
