Turn the Tide Foundation, Inc. was founded in 2007 to address America’s troubling health trends – rapidly rising rates of obesity and diabetes in both the adults and children, and increasing rates of heart disease and other chronic diseases in adults.  

The opportunity to turn the tide of obesity and chronic disease begins by recognizing that we have created a perfect storm of obesity-causing factors. We are victims of our own success. And since human physiology is the same as it ever was, while the modern environment is the same as it never was before, the opportunities to reverse obesity trends - just like the causes - are all around us!

Our Mission: Is to develop and evaluate creative, practical strategies in real-world settings for empowering individuals and families to achieve optimal nutrition, robust good health, and sustainable weight control; to disseminate successful strategies; and to work tirelessly to devise a robust array of defenses every person can use to protect itself from the threat of obesity and attendant chronic disease.
