“Service Learning in Health and Wellness” is a course offered by CCAPP at The City College of NY, which guides students to learn through hands-on services that address health issues in Harlem.
We've worked on making healthy snacks available in school vending machines, improved school cafeteria’s recycling, convinced local bodegas to offer healthy lunches, hosted farmers’ market, and developed a Healthy Living Guide with cancer prevention tips.

Great story in the NY Daily News about how to eat healthy at your local bodega.
That is some excellent advice about not buying the vegetables in heavy syrup. I have never looked at that. I just always thought vegetables were vegetables.
When I read that, the woman did not know what potassium was I was shocked. With anemia, heart disease and diabetes, shouldn't her doctor have given her a list or a website that will help her stay more healthy?
I enjoyed the article. It had alot of healthy information.
