New

Habit Heroes™ experience aims to

teach families about healthy choices!

Habit Heroes™.


Everyone has the potential to be a habit hero. That’s why we’re

co-sponsoring


Habit Heroes™ in

INN OVENTI ONS at  Epcot® and Walt Disney World®


Resort. The HabitHeroes™



interactive exhibit was reviewed by health experts and is


designed to help families make healthy choices a part of everyday

life. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) research showed 17% of
 
U.S. citizens age 2-19 are obese, and nearly 80% of the kids who
 
were overweight at 10-15 years of age were obese by age

25. A CDC report said that unhealthy lifestyle choices

like poor nutrition and lack of exercise radically impact

employers’ costs. This is because they can lead to

chronic conditions, which account for 75% of U.S.

health care spending each year.* Promoting


Habit Heroes™



is one way we’re working to reverse these


trends. It’s a fun, yet effective way to help families

focus on building good habits like eating well, moving

more and staying hydrated. It’s also an extension

of how we support our members through wellness

programs and plans with 100 percent coverage for

preventive care.
