The President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition (PCFSN) reports that less than five percent of adults in the US participate in the recommended 30 minutes of physical activity each day.  

Only one out of every three adults actually gets enough physical activity each week to stay healthy.  The PCFSN also reports that a typical American diets surpasses the suggested consumption of fats, sugars, salt, refined grains, and saturated fat.  Not only do Americans eat a diet high in fats, sugars, and sodium, but also eat less than the recommended amounts of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.  It is no surprise that recent statistics postulate that obesity affects over 78 million American adults.  It is also projected that by 2030, half of all adults in the United States will be obese.
