CCALC - Fat Attack

Fat Attack is a fun and interactive educational program that teaches participants about healthy fats and why we need them in the diet versus unhealthy fats and the effects they have on the body (ex: obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes).

Participants get hands-on, passing around props, such as a clogged artery, MyPlate properly portioned food models, and trying to guess how much our fat and muscles models weigh.

Each prop leads to a discussion on how to make healthier choices with food, activity, and other steps to prevent or manage lifestyle diseases.
