GMA President Obama taking heat from activist doctors for eating the occasional hamburger. Our take? As an active and healthy person who balances calories consumed with the right amount of physical activity, President Obama is a role model for American adults and children when it comes to a healthy lifestyle. Eating is fundamentally about nourishment, but it is also about enjoyment, fellowship and celebration. The President clearly understands that all foods and beverages – consumed in moderation and balanced with an active lifestyle – can fit in a healthy diet.
