1) Eating a balanced breakfast, stopping for lunch, and choosing healthy snacks can improve productivity and mental performance throughout the workday compared to skipping meals or eating unhealthy options. 2) Poor diet and lack of physical activity can lead to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers, which are leading causes of death, while healthy eating and regular exercise can improve health and quality of life. 3) Small changes like taking activity breaks at work or walking meetings can help employees incorporate more movement into their day for better health.
