• It’s an honor to welcome my friend @SecBecerra to @USDA to talk about the intrinsic link between nutrition and health. Between USDA and @HHSGov, we have the tools to improve health outcomes and reduce diet-related disease.
• Better nutrition leads to better health outcomes.
• I’m so proud that @USDA is a leader in the nutrition space. Programs like SNAP, WIC and the National School Lunch Program are the most comprehensive, far-reaching tools we have to ensure Americans have access to healthy, nutritious meals. #foodismedicine #nutritionsecurity
