Planning a menu for your work event? Before you pick up that box of doughnuts, consider using Meeting Well to plan healthy meetings and events.

Heart disease and cancer – the number one and two causes of death – are largely affected by what we eat and how active we are. In fact, one third of all cancer deaths could be prevented if we ate more fruits, vegetables, and grain foods; ate less fat and drank less alcohol; and increased our physical activity.

These changes are not only good for overall health and disease prevention, they make you feel better, look better, and have more energy.

Meeting Well provides healthy information and suggestions including:

• General tips for meals and snacks
• Suggestions for stocking a healthy vending machine
• Suggestions for action-packed meetings
• Healthy meeting checklist
• Healthy and fun ideas for themed and special events
