Recent national study ranks Utah fourth among 50 states for healthy eating, drinking habits
SALT LAKE CITY – Utahns are well-known for considering themselves to be clean-living, abstemious people. A recent survey by Maine Lobster Now has found that Utah ranks in the top five of all 50 states for healthy eating and drinking habits, ranking Utah fourth among them. The study compared U.S. states across 10 indicators, including consumption of fruits and vegetables, sugary drinks, fast food and alcoholic beverages, and the health impact of these habits on adult obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and coronary heart disease. Utah also scored with the lowest adult rates of high blood Pressure (27.3 percent), high cholesterol (31.2) and coronary coronary heart Disease (6.6 percent). The study also found that fast food restaurants make up nearly 60 of all eateries in Utah, the third-highest share in the country.
