Health Literacy Experts, Jumo Health, Team Up with Nutrition Experts, 3ChicPea Entertainment, to Produce Videos on Healthy Eating Habits

 

New York City (31 October 2019) — In an ongoing commitment to provide age appropriate, educational resources to patients and caregivers throughout their medical journey, Jumo Health is proud to announce its partnership with 3ChicPea Entertainment. Founded by three registered dietitians, 3ChicPea Entertainment is a wellness brand that empowers today’s youth to establish lifelong healthy eating habits.

The partnership will produce various resources to provide general wellness education in ways that children and adolescents can understand, thereby empowering a new generation to effectively act upon a physician’s instructions.

“Health literacy and reading comprehension statistics are embarrassing. Ninety percent of U.S. adults cannot understand and act upon a physician’s instructions. Coupled with the fact that 50% cannot read above an 8th grade level and most available materials are written at or above a 10th grade level — it’s a recipe for disaster in our health care state,” shared Kevin Aniskovich, CEO of Jumo Health. Jumo Health produces evidence-based and age appropriate resources to ensure, regardless of educational attainment, consumers are well prepared to make decisions, act, and stay compliant.

This partnership not only marks the addition of wellness related media to Jumo Health’s library of clinical resources, but also further underscores Jumo Health’s dedication to serving the adolescent and transitional market.  As part of this partnership, Jumo Health and 3ChicPea Entertainment have launched, Fuel You, a 2D animated video intended to help children and adolescents understand the importance of nutrition and healthy eating for physical activity, cognitive performance, and quality of life.

Approximately 30.5 million Americans are living with diabetes, and 193,000 under the age of 20 are estimated to have diagnosed diabetes. Since our inception, our goal has been to create health care experiences that give patients and caregivers the tools to understand complex medical issues and effectively manage their health. For Jumo Health and 3ChicPea Entertainment, educating today’s youth on how to live a healthy lifestyle and make the right choices is no exception, and is the cornerstone for effectuating positive health outcomes.

“Today’s entertainment landscape, targeted towards children and young girls, is preoccupied with gaining fame and popularity through capitalizing on one’s outer beauty and being ‘insta-perfect.’ We believe that the next generation needs real people, like themselves, to look up to and act as a role model for healthy behaviors. For us, this partnership is a step in the right direction for the types of media we should provide to children and adolescents,” shared Kristina Viola RD, LDN, Co-Founder of 3ChicPea Entertainment.

Fuel You is available to license for pharmaceutical, clinical trial, payor, hospital, and school library websites. For more information, please contact us at jumohealth.com/contact.
