The Columbus Public Health Department has a program called Healthy Children, Healthy Weights and the goal is to help children make the healthiest food choices that they can.
Autumn Trombetta, Obesity Prevention Coordinator for CPH and a registered dietician goes into childcare centers across Columbus on a mission to change food options and tastebuds.
Trombetta works one-on-one with childcare center directors and teachers helping them make simple, healthy changes to the menus they offer children. She is on the front lines in the war against childhood obesity, because if she can get children enjoying healthy food at an early age, they are likely to continue making healthy choices throughout their lifetime.
More than a third of Americans are considered overweight or obese, and according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention childhood obesity has more than tripled in the past 30 years.
