Government Weighing In on Your Nutrition?

With skyrocketing health insurance premiums, childhood obesity numbers out of control, and millions being effected by nutrition related diseases every year, is it any wonder that our government is trying to step in to make our country healthier?

This article off of MSN Health tells us of a new effort by New York City to mandate restaurants and manufacturers to lower the sodium content of their food. I am all for improving nutrition, but this leaves me with one burning question: Should we rely on our government to make healthier choices for us or learn how to lead a healthy lifestyle on our own?

Read the article and share your thoughts!
