About Us

Less-fortunate Americans, especially in urban regions, have limited access to healthy food financially and geographically. Low quality, cheap, and easy fast food swarms the diets of many. Because of this, the health, wellbeing, and confidence of people are being compromised. People do not realize that the low-quality food we consume has become normalized by society. The mainstream diet is low in fruits, lean proteins, fresh fruits, and vegetables. But instead, our diets are dangerously high in red meats, added sugars, refined carbohydrates, calories, and more. 

​

So what? 

​

Not only does a normalized unhealthy diet lead to weight gain and an average decrease in personal confidence, but studies from the University of Alabama at Birmingham Undergraduate Research Journal by Courtney Walker shows that this diet has increased chances of cardiovascular disease, increased death rates from asthma, increased cardiac dysfunction, increased depression, impaired learning, and increased risk for Parkinson's disease (citations).

​

If the message isn’t clear, let it be clear: our diets are severing years off of our lives and destroying mental wellbeing–and this trend is especially prevalent in low-income households. 

Daylane Health will host structured events that build confidence, healthy habits, and funding towards organizations who are already committed to improving the diets and health of our communities.
