African American Health

Blacks and African Americans are disproportionately affected by many chronic diseases and health conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, and obesity.

Despite these health disparities faced by African American communities, chronic disease is NOT a part of their heritage. 

What is in their heritage is a healthy mind, strong body, vibrant and delicious foods, and a beautiful culture. 

"Let the old ways be your guide to good health and well-being."
