Larson surveyed more than 1,600 men and women with an average age of 20 and a half years old. <Clip: “What we found was that those who more often shared meals…less of the fruits and vegetables and other healthy foods.”> Larson recommends that young adults schedule time for meals as they do for other important activities. She adds that there is a message for colleges and businesses, as well. <Clip: “As much as they can, they would be encouraged to support…workplace, or in the college or university setting.”> For John Finnegan and Public Health Moment, I’m Mark Engebretson.enAudio
