We need to have both – a community that supports the individuals within it, and healthy individuals who can share their skills and resources to enhance the community where they live or work. A community can be a town, a school, a worksite, or an association.
I’m Dona Forke and my company, Wellness Associates, was developed to combine my education in nutrition and health promotion with my experience in community project development, grant writing, and corporate strategic planning.
The name of this site: MEnutritiondynamics, grew from my original perspective - to use nutritional science as the foundation for an individual’s healthy lifestyle, and to build on that foundation by emphasizing research-based techniques from my training as a wellness coach, as well as over 10 years experience in public health.
Just as creating a healthy lifestyle is a process, the creation of this website is a process. The foundation has been set ... the building blocks are under construction. Please check back often as the building continues!

Reader response was immediate and continues to be widespread. Because of this interest, past columns are archived on this site, organized by date. Read on! |
