It’s an inspired idea–to better understand the human diet, explore what culturally diverse families eat for a week. That’s what photographer Peter Menzel and author-journalist Faith D’Alusio, authors of the equally ambitious Material World, do in Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, a comparative photo-chronicle of their visits to 30 families in 24 countries for 600 meals in all. Their personal-is-political portraits feature pictures of each family with a week’s worth of food purchases; weekly food-intake lists with costs noted; typical family recipes; and illuminating essays, such as “Diabesity,” on the growing threat of obesity and diabetes. Among the families, we meet the Mellanders, a German household of five who enjoy cinnamon rolls, chocolate croissants, and beef roulades, and whose weekly food expenses amount to $500. We also encounter the Natomos of Mali, a family of one husband, his two wives, and their nine children, whose corn and millet-based diet costs $26.39 weekly.

Our Healthy Kids Project (HKP) here at ACCESS aims to promote healthier lifestyles for children, ages 5-10 years old, and their parents through active learning about physical activity, nutrition, environmental health and mental health. The goal of HKP is to try to help make living a healthy life fun and easy while engaging not only children but parents. This is the perfect opportunity for families to learn how daily behaviors impact personal health now and their influence on future health. It is possible to make a large impact by just a small change. Group sessions include height, weight, and blood pressure screening for children, health screenings and referrals, food preparation techniques, how to read nutrition labels, physical activity opportunities, safer household cleansers and a fieldtrip for families who attend regularly.

In his questions at the Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee hearing on the Reauthorization of U.S. Child Nutrition Programs, Senator Dick Lugar asked Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to elaborate on how the Departments of Health and Human Services, Education, and Agriculture plan to collaborate to improve school nutrition and lower incidences of childhood obesity. Citing recent reports that about 75% of our nations 17 to 24 year olds are ineligible for military service because of poor health and education, Senator Lugar encouraged Vilsack to continue to work with Secretaries Duncan and Sebelius to better connect federal nutrition programs with education and health programs not only to help our young people be better citizens and parents, but also to strengthen our national security. Likewise, Senator Lugar asked Secretary Vilsack to comment on how USDA and the Obama Administration propose to finance expansions to federal nutrition programs in the upcoming child nutrition and WIC reauthorization bill.
