Habits are unconscious and automatic. Even if we want to eat healthfully and feed our families well, habits can undermine our good intentions. When willpower is drained, or we’re tired or stressed, we’re especially likely to fall back on habits, healthy or otherwise. That’s why building healthy habits is so important.

Join #FoodFri on June 24, 2016 between 1-2 p.m. Eastern as @MomsRising chats with @CSPI about healthy habits. During the chat we will discuss how habits affect which foods we buy and eat, and share strategies for creating healthy habits. This chat is sure to help transform your habits and give you ideas for healthy habits that you can start right away!

More about our #FoodFri Featured Co-Host(s):

Since 1971, CSPI has been a strong advocate for nutrition and health, food safety, alcohol policy, and sound science.

Founded by executive director Michael Jacobson, Ph.D. and two other scientists, CSPI carved out a niche as the organized voice of the American public on nutrition, food safety, health and other issues during a boom of consumer and environmental protection awareness in the early 1970s. CSPI has long sought to educate the public, advocate government policies that are consistent with scientific evidence on health and environmental issues, and counter industry’s powerful influence on public opinion and public policies.
