I intend to reduce obesity in the US by petitioning the FDA & inspiring you to join us.
WHY? One in three Americans suffer from obesity, and are at higher risk for many health problems.
HOW TO HELP: Have 1 minute? Together we CAN take a step towards reversing the obesity epidemic by signing our petition to the FDA.
We are asking the FDA to add the number of teaspoons of sugar (not grams, since most Americans don't understand the metric system) to the per serving “Nutritional Facts” on the side of the package as well as for the whole package by adding a label on the front.
I hope you will consider adding your support to our petition as a way of combating this epidemic and battling obesity on multiple fronts.
You can sign the petition here: http://...
INSPIRATION: To make a difference.
Welcome Michele to our Intent community -- it seems we're on somewhat of the same wavelength this morning. The petition is a great idea and I know they truly do work! Now, lets also start a campaign to put SPINACH in everything! :) Hope to see many more intents from you...Jeannie

Wonderful!!! I'll go sign now... Every day i do see more and more people becoming aware of this issue, as well as many other health issues in the US that are simply unavoidable. With this petition, and the awareness of such, i see nothing but a positive healthy future. My wish for the world, is to bring smaller healthier portions to every american, and for every dish of food each american can purchase the same healthy meal to be offered to those who would otherwise go hungry.
