Susan attended the Pritikin Family Program with her 11-year-old son Fitz. "The program was definitely a 10+ experience for Fitz. This was a child who never touched a vegetable! The Pritikin faculty really knew how to explain healthy living in kid terms. Fitz is no longer eating fruits and vegetables because "mom said so." He's eating them because he wants to."
