In addition, Morrison will offer in-hospital events such as cooking demonstrations, seasonal tables,

and on-site Farmer’s Markets as well as community events such as community cooking demonstrations, a community website, wellness teaching kitchens,

and wellness summits

Just a few of the health benefits that WellPower can promote:

Increased Whole Grains: At least 3 servings per day of whole grains may lower your risk of diabetes, heart disease and keep you at a healthy weight

Reduction in Sodium: About 34 percent of the adult population has high blood pressure (hypertension) which is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, congestive heart failure, and kidney disease. Excessive salt intake increases blood pressure

Reduction in Sugar: There has been strong scientific data linking excess sugar (above 6 teaspoons of sugar a day for women and about 9 teaspoons a day for men) and increased risk of heart disease and diabetes. A 20-ounce bottle of soda has about 69 grams of sugar, which is 16+ teaspoons of sugar
