Former First Lady Michelle Obama announced the launch of a healthy food and beverage company she co-founded that is targeted at fighting childhood obesity.
The former first lady spearheaded the Let’s Move campaign, a program aimed at ending childhood obesity, during her time at the White House. She announced her latest venture at the Wall Street Journal's Future of Everything Festival on Wednesday, May 3.
"We're hoping not to just provide healthy and delicious drinks and snacks for kids, but to jumpstart a race to the top that will transform the entire food industry," Obama wrote in a PLEZi Nutrition press release announcing the launch. "Because let's face it, even after everything we accomplished during the White House years, it is still simply too hard for kids to grow up healthy."
While Obama is PLEZi Nutrition’s co-founder and strategic partner, the company is led by a team of public health, nutrition, and parenting specialists.
PLEZi Nutrition is rolling out its first product, a fruit juice for kids, in four flavors containing 75% less sugar than average leading 100% fruit juices.

How did you get so fat, Junior?
It was a SNAP - candy and soda.
They will buy it in droves when we tell people it is as delicious as her school lunches. /s
“…we can be sure that whatever is in that stuff is NOT going to be good for the kids.”
Goes without saying. Still worth mentioning
What about Big Mike’s own fat ass? Why doesn’t he address THAT issue?
An important cause of obesity is prescription drugs such as steroids for asthma.
Bean soda.
The key to success is under the alarm clock
No, it's the LEFT'S Move campaign.
Only Americans would believe you can solve obesity by eating.
In the event that this company is going to be listed on the Stock Market, I recommend that everyone here short the stock.
Unless she can tap into left-over COVID funds or "Reparation" money, or land some "sweetheart-deal" and "no-bid" government contracts, this company will be doomed from the get-go.
Regards,
i see govt contracts in their future
like govt schools
YOU KIDS WERE ALLOWED INTO THE HOUSE?!
we almost never ate in front of the T.V.
YOU FOLKS HAD A T.V.?!
Regards,
BINGO. Let’s insist Big Mike slim down first.
She should launch herself into the Grand Canyon.
And it doesn’t affect hormone levels so Mike doesn’t need to worry about “changing back”.
Sounds like you grew up next door to me.
This “product” will fail if it doesn’t contain at least 20% sugar. Dentists everywhere are smiling.
Further showing the genius of Trump Water.
It’s still sugar water
My healthy living campaign slogan would be “STOP the POP.”
Juice should be looked upon as a food, not a beverage. One four ounce glass with breakfast should be it for the day.
One way to lose weight is to stop drinking calories.
