Jamie Oliver and PTA Team Up to Fight Childhood Obesity

Posted on May 21, 2010

Renowned chef and TV personality Jamie Oliver is determined to start a food revolution and change the way America eats in our home kitchens, schools and workplaces. Nearly one-third of American children are either overweight or obese (Ogden, et al. 2010) The obesity epidemic is so great that it may actually reduce the life expectancy of today’s generation of children. Jamie Oliver and PTA are proud to provide a toolkit for parents and families to give them the tools and information they need to eat healthy and to be active together. You can download the toolkit at www.PTA.org. To find out more about Jamie Oliver’s work, watch Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution Fridays at 9|8c on ABC.
