Healthy food is vital in preparing teens and young adults for the brightest future possible. But most young people are inundated with a relentless stream of unhelpful nutrition messages from food marketers, social media influencers, and societal pressures.


That's why we created a fun way for teens and young adults to arm themselves with reliable, practical nutrition knowledge!


We've just launched a one-of-a-kind learning tool for learners from middle school through college-age. This new graphic-novel themed resource addresses the impact of nutrition on issues of special concern to young people: mood, academics, athletic performance, sleep, and more.

“This delivers! Young adults don’t yet care about longevity or future health state, but sleeping better and running faster? That’s a winner. I’ll be recommending this in all of my adolescent physical exams and also sending to my kids’ team sports coaches.”

—Jaclyn Albin, MD,

Internal Medicine and Pediatrics,
