YoNaturals Fighting Childhood Obesity

YoNaturals and its CEO, Mark Trotter, are leading the fight against child obesity and ubiquitous junk food in our society. The YoZone healthy vending machines offer a viable alternative to the unhealthy food that is thrust on us from all sides in our schools and workplaces, driving obesity rates in this country through the roof. Finally we have alternatives to candy and soda that are both nutritious and delicious.

How exactly do we intend to fight child obesity in America? The answer is simple. The only reason we have such an epidemic in the first place is because of the American need for convenience. The sad truth is that most people simply eat what is available to them. It makes sense when you think about it; many of us spend most of our days either in school or in the workplace. When we get hungry, what are we to do besides eat what is available?

That’s why YoNaturals is striving to make healthier food not only the right choice, but the convenient choice. If healthy food actually becomes a viable alternative, because it will be readily available, then more and more people will be able to stick to their diet plan outside the home. We can no longer afford to ignore the increasing numbers of overweight children and teens in our country. Our young people are our future, and we are losing them in obscene numbers to a disease that is well within our ability to control.

YoNaturals intends a two-pronged attack, firstly in the minds of consumers, and secondly at the very heart of the junk food vending. For the first, we must continue to disseminate the necessary information by teaching our children about nutrition and its affect on our bodies. Only with the proper education can we expect our children to make the right choices, a task which is the responsibility of both parents and schools. Then we will actually replace candy and sodas with organic and natural foods. The state legislatures have already struck a mighty blow to the vending industry in 2005, creating a vacuum that we intend to fill with healthy foods and drinks.

YoNaturals is making the world a better, healthier place, one YoZone vending machine at a time. Find out how you can play an integral part in a healthier America by fighting child obesity at it’s source: poor nutrition.
