Support Ochsner Eat Fit by dining out on Wednesday, August 22, 2018 at participating Eat Fit restaurants and partners. Eat Fit is a nonprofit initiative of Ochsner Health System designed to help the community live their healthiest, strongest lives possible, including working with restaurants to provide nutritious options that allow us to indulge without the guilt.
Participating restaurants will donate a portion of the day’s proceeds to the Eat Fit | Live Fit fund, which supports a variety of initiatives to encourage balanced, healthful lifestyles. key projects include collaboration with local restaurants to provide healthful options on menus, community nutrition workshops, cooking demos, wellness screenings, high school culinary teaching programs, and more.
Eat Fit connects with local restaurants and the surrounding community to support the common goal of a healthier city and a stronger community. It takes the burden off of the guest who wants to order healthfully, without feeling like they’re imposing. Eat Fit essentially does the work for you, so you can check out the menu ahead of time on the Eat Fit smartphone app to see the dishes and the full nutrition stats before you even walk in the door.
