Former Hasbro Children's Hospital Doctor Launches Healthy Eating Nonprofit
FEATURED IN RHODE ISLAND INNO
There's plenty of research that backs up the claim that eating healthy — emphasizing fruits, veggies, whole grains and low-fat options — can lead to a healthy life, reduce risk of heart disease and fight high blood pressure, among other benefits.
As a former pediatrician at Hasbro Children's Hospital, Dr. Sandra Musial knows this very well. Musial, who previously taught pediatric residents and co-founded the HEALTH (Healthy Eating Active Living Through Hasbro) clinic, had specialized in nutrition, breast feeding, and pediatric obesity at the Rhode Island hospital until 2019, when she stepped away to create Plant Docs.
