PBH takes the stand for
better health Science supports greater role for fruits and vegetables
The science is clear: diets rich in fruits and
vegetables control weight and reduce chronic disease risk. PBH is working to
ensure that policymakers, administrators, regulators and legislators know it.
We’re making the case for putting fruits and vegetables first in national
food policies and programs – and in Americans’ lives. Read PBH
