MOVE EAT GIVE by Interrupt Hunger
More than 73% of Americans have overweight or obesity, while more than 12 % have food insecurity. America is getting heavier, sicker, and more isolated from each other every day.
Interrupt Hunger’s motto, MOVE EAT GIVE, reflects our belief that virtually every problem in America could be fixed if we took better care of ourselves and took better care of each other.
Welcome to Interrupt Hunger's MOVE EAT GIVE podcast, where we talk with experts in Exercise Is Medicine, Food Is Medicine and Food Insecurity.
And understanding that knowledge isn't always enough to help you lose weight, every other episode showcases someone who's lost at least 10% body weight to share exactly how they did it.
Interrupt Hunger is a 501c3 nonprofit, which helps you lose weight while feeding the hungry. Bring our free 12-Week Weight Loss Challenge and Donate Your Weight program to the places you live, work, and pray. We fund our mission with sales from our MOVE EAT GIVE bracelets and apparel.

7. Healthiest Small Town Series: How to Start a Food Pantry | Angela Black, MD
Continuing our Healthiest Small Town series, we're exploring how to bring a food pantry into a medical practice (works for small businesses or faith organizations too!).
Angela Black, MD is a pediatrician with Corridor Pediatrics in San Marcos, TX & host of the "Eat Your Greens with Dr. Black" podcast. She shares her experience & shows it's simpler than you might think. We discuss the impact of food insecurity on families and how medical practices can help. You'll hear about the practical steps involved, from partnering with local food banks to implementing the program with minimal staff disruption, record-keeping, or set-up costs. Whether you're in healthcare or just interested in community support, this episode offers valuable insights into what you can do to help your hungry neighbors.
