Hungry to be Healthy: Cultivating Community Change | Ep. 29
Today’s Takeaways: 1. Interrupt Hunger’s Mission: Focus on preventing chronic disease, feeding the hungry, and fostering community. 2. Community Collaboration is Key: Change starts by working together—teaching essential skills like cooking, gardening, and movement while giving back.
3. A Look at the Past vs. Today: Several generations ago, nearly 40% of produce came from home gardens. Today, ultra-processed foods and additives have changed the nutritional landscape.
4. Modern Health Challenges: 8 out of 10 leading causes of death are linked to poor nutrition. Approximately 73% of Americans struggle with obesity, 12% face food insecurity, and 30% experience social isolation.5. Empowering Through Education: Teaching practical skills, such as gardening, empowers people to provide nutritious food for themselves and their families. 6. Building Sustainable Community Programs: Successful change involves partnering with schools, local governments, and community organizations (e.g., school and employee gardens).
