At Somerset
Heart Health we support policy, environmental change, and programming
to increase awareness and promote good habits around proper
nutrition. Nutrition is an integral part of everyone’s
life. Food is something we experience everyday and we feel that
educating our community and supporting healthy habits around nutrition
can have a large impact on those we serve. By following good
nutritional practices we can do much to avoid obesity and other risk
factors for diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer,
heart disease, high cholesterol, and stroke. Food can also be
used as a tool to facilitate family bonding, a connection between farms
and communities, and local economic stimulus.
If you have questions
or would like more information on any of our Nutrition Programs, please
contact Kate Mantor, Nutrition Program Coordinator at (207) 474-7473
ext. 203 or kmantor@rfgh.net.
