Current American president’s wife

She initiated the “Let’s Move Program” on

January 2010

The goal was to make progress in reversing

the 21st century trend of childhood obesity.

"Let's Move" has four pillars:

Offering parents the tools and information they need to make better decisions about their children's nutrition

Making food healthier in schools

Making healthy foods available to a large audience

Promoting physical activity

Revamping school menus to reduce the

amount of calorie intake in children

Professional chefs go to schools to teach

the children culinary skills so that they

can try out better nutritional choices by

themselves

Promoting physical activity through the

support of family, school and the public

opinion

More children in America get better nutrition

in school and at home

Parents are more aware of the nutritional

choices for their children and are more

mindful of what they cook

Healthy foods are more accessible to the

public

Less fat children

Better information on nutritional choices for

the public
