I grew up around Springfield Illinois and gained an interest in how food affects us and specifically how it can help athletes, becaue the knowledge of this can gain you a real edge over the competition. Now as I get older I see how much this county actually needs nutrition information because of the fact that our country is so terribley overweight. It's easy realize that if America has so much food to become overweight we should be able to feed the starving in the world and this has so far not been fullfilled.
