Phoenix, AZ; Men's Journal Magazine Top Trainer, J.R. Rosania, CSCS and his fellow Iron90 Co-Founder, Robert Vera, strongly support the Los Angeles City Council and Councilman Jose Huizar's demand to require calorie information be made available on restaurant menus.
"Food is the most pervasive drug we will ever put into our bodies, depending on the dose food is either a benefit or a poison. Unused calories stored as fat are poisoning our population.", states Vera.
"This is long overdue, we fully support the Los Angeles City Council efforts and similar initiatives put forth by Mayor Bloomberg in New York City. Our nations Mayors' and City Councils' are battling on the front lines to control our nation's skyrocketing health care cost. Obesity is linked to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and many other chronic illnesses now crippling our population and our health care system. Calorie posting is not the solution but its progress, just knowing how many calorie one consumes may cause some to edit their daily consumption which would help to shed weight." added Rosania.
