As obesity rates continue to rise across the United States, researchers at the University of Florida are pushing a powerful message: food is medicine.
A new study from UF highlights the critical link between what we eat and how we grow it.
ABC Action News spoke to UF researcher Chris Gunter, who joined fellow scientists in a recent article promoting the idea that food itself can be a form of medicine. Their findings show that 73% of US adults and over a third of children are overweight or obese, yet only 1 in 10 adults eat enough fruits and vegetables.
