The month of March will serve as a reminder for us all to eat foods that do our bodies good.
Eat Real Foods
National Nutrition Month is about nutrition education and this year, the focus is on eating colorful, vitamin-rich foods. The American Dietetic Association created this annual celebration that focuses on eating right, but also reminds us to include physical activity into our lives.
We all know that a healthy diet and exercise go hand in hand.
The Cost of Care
At Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, our mission is to provide everyone with access to quality health care. Part of that mission is to provide our members with the tools that help them live healthier lives. Some ways we do that is through our:
- Efforts to combat childhood obesity
- Innovative health insurance plans that reward folks for living healthier lives
- Grants provided to free clinics
- Partnerships with doctors and hospitals to improve the delivery of health care
- Support of healthy community initiatives
Healthy People Means Lower Costs
The health of every BCBSM member and Michigan resident is important to the Blues. We all know that the healthier people are, the less health care costs for all of us.
