Former First Lady Michelle Obama in her article for Oprah Daily she talked about the fight she continues to do to improve children’s health and nutrition.

“Getting ready meals is simpler than cutting carrots. Ordering (delivery) is sometimes all you have energy forMichelle Obama wrote in her article.

“I still remember taking one of my girls to a doctor’s appointment and the doctor telling me that all these simple choices I was making were having a negative impact on her health. It was one of the worst feelings I’ve had as a parent and one of the biggest “wake-up calls” of my life. I was a little scared, but also a little angry“, he said.

Setting an example in 2009 by creating a vegetable garden on the grounds of the White House, she launched her initiative a year later under the name “Let’s Move”.

“We’ve made incredible progress, improving nutrition standards in schools, encouraging companies to reduce sugar and salt in their products…trust me, I know this is a complex issue. There is no perfect solution that will work for every child, let alone millions of children. But my time as First Lady has taught me that the food industry plays too big a role in the fate of children’s health.

Today she is the co-founder of PLEZi Nutrition, a food company that offers “healthier drinks and snacks”. “At the end of the day, there’s nothing better than putting your child to bed…and realizing you tried your best to keep them happy and healthyObama concluded.
