As an insurance provider, you already recognize the rising cost of treating obesity and obesity-related illnesses.  Furthermore, you know that too many families are reluctant to seek nutrition education unless it is covered by insurance; yet, having that critical information would save lives and decrease obesity-relate health costs.  What if there was a way for your company to offer fun, engaging nutrition education while cutting costs at the same time?

Dr. William Sears, along with exercise physiologist Sean Foy, have created a series of interactive, clinically proven workshops to help individuals and families embrace four pillars of health: Lifestyle, Exercise, Attitude, and Nutrition. Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N. workshops provide simple, easy-to-implement tools for making nutrition education fun and engaging.  This proven approach provides participants with all the tools necessary for sustaining health and wellness. In addition, the readily-available materials are simple and easy for participants to understand, from expectant and nursing moms, to parents and their children.

Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N. Workshops Will Help Your Company:

•    Cut costs by helping your clients live healthier lives
•    Teach your employees how to set an example for others in what it means to eat healthy and get regular exercise.
•    Introduce your insurance services to potential future clients

Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N.

Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N. Start is a series of six one-hour nutrition education classes for parents of children ages 3-12.  Each class can be taught to a group of parents or adapted to suit the needs of parents and their children.  Each class also includes fun, interactive activities, lots of healthy snacks, and engaging DVD segments.  Participants also receive an 80-page Parents’ and Caregivers’ Guide, along with an activity book for their children.
