GrassROOTS No To Sugar Challenge 2018

Join the #GCFSugarPledge.

WHY?

According to medical and public health officials, excessive intake of sugar can negatively impact our minds and our bodies. At GrassROOTS we are devoted to promoting and supporting wellness by helping our community members eat healthier and move more. We are also committed to sharing information that helps us all live and longer healthier lives. In so doing we hope to reduce the incidences of obesity and optimize well-being. For these reasons, we are reducing and/or eliminating artificial sugars from our daily diets.

We are choosing healthy, natural sugars from fruits and we are opting for a largely plant-based diet.

For the month of July, join us by saying No To Sugar.
