Welcome! to “Your Health is on Your Plate.”  This is where I, Dr. Roxanne Sukol, a practicing internist in Cleveland, Ohio, explain how I care about what you eat.  I spend my days teaching folks how to tell the difference between nutritious food and the rest of what’s out there.  It’s not what you think: The American diet is causing obesity in 2/3 of the people who eat it, and diabetes in 13% of Americans. Thirty percent of current nine-year-olds are projected to become diabetic. Something is wrong with this picture. Diabetes and obesity are preventable diseases– so let’s prevent them.

Remember, your health is on your plate.
