Educators

Welcome to HealthBarn USA!

Your students' learning experiences are a number-one priority. As nutrition educators, we realize that school resources are limited and your time is incredibly valuable. With unprecedented rates of overweight, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and eating disorders in children, we must educate young children about the importance of living a healthy-lifestyle that includes HealthBarn USA's FIVE healthy habits:  1) eat fruits and vegetables 2) exercise 3) eat breakfast 4) get a good night sleep and 5) family meals!  

We also know that getting children excited about healthy behaviors and nutrition is a top priority at schools today.  With new state-wide nutrition policies including the New Jersey Model Nutrition Policy in effect, educating about the importance of good nutrition is as important as providing healthier choices at school.

Stacey Antine, MS, RD and founder of HealthBarn USA was honored on The Rachael Ray Show as part of Ray's Incredible People & Healthy Eating series sponsored by The American Egg Board, click here  to watch HealthBarn USA kids and team in action!
