Dr. Amy Willcockson - Live Healthy Iowa

On January 12th, Dr. Amy Willcockson with Live Healthy Iowa spoke to the Rotary Club.    She went into detail on how $2.3 trillion is spent each year in this country on chronic disease.   In the state of Iowa, obesity rates have increased from 14% of adults in 1988, to 30.9% of adults in 2014.   Live Healthy Iowa is trying to lower the obesity rate in the state of Iowa - one of the ways they do this is their 10 week challenge.   The 10 week challenge starts January 23rd and runs through March 31st.    For more information on Live Healthy Iowa, please visit www.livehealthyiowa.org.     Thanks Dr. Amy for stopping by!
