Harry
is the brainchild of an Arkansas
Department of Health
(ADH) team that participated in
the South
Central Public Health Leadership
Institute. Team members David
Rath, Linda Kemp, Lynn Lincoln,
Pam Murphy and Ann Wright developed
the website to promote healthy
living for all ages of life. Statistics
show that Arkansas is one of the
most unhealthy states in the nation,
largely because of obesity, lack
of physical activity and poor
nutrition. Harry
the Heart Healthy Chef website
is designed to give people the
“tools” to prepare food in a healthy
manner; remove the barriers to
healthy cooking and eating; increase
consumption of fruits and vegetables,
educate the public about how to
eat healthy while “on the go”
and educate parents on how to
establish healthy eating patterns
in children.
