A bit of interesting reading, and quite fitting considering the Nutrition Challenge we just kicked off this week:

Major hightlight:
“Americans are dying younger and living their later years with more diseases than citizens of poorer countries that spend far less than the U.S. on health care, according to a new study.
The most surprising finding, the researchers said, was that the No. 1 risk factor contributing to the burden of disease is the simplest of things: diet.”
