African Americans suffer from obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and certain types of cancer more than other groups. You can help to prevent and manage these health problems by eating fruits and vegetables and being active. Start your day off right with a healthy breakfast, and pack healthy snacks and lunches to keep you going during the day. If you eat out, choose menu options that are full of fruits and vegetables or ask for fruit instead of dessert. Back at home, make eating dinner together a priority to stay connected. Studies have shown that families that eat together have better nutrition for the whole family.
