This is a great blog post. Enough cannot be said about the health disparities facing black women. With so many illnesses and diseases disproportionately affect black women, it should be more than a wake up call for us to be proactive about our health and wellness. I recently saw a statistic that 80% of black women in America are overweight or obese, with a body mass index of 25 or greater. This is a major health crisis.
