Strawberry Fields Forever: Nutrition and health

By Karen L. Kier
Pharmacist on behalf of the ONU Healthwise Team 

Strawberry Fields Forever was an original ballad written by John Lennon for the Beatles. It was released on February 13, 1967.  The song was considered a departure from the classic Beatles songs and many felt it ushered in the psychedelic genre. After Lennon’s death, 2.5 acres of Central Park in New York City known as Strawberry Fields was dedicated to his memory.

Science provides insight on so many aspects about our lives and the influence of health and happiness.  These different aspects can include food, relationships, passions and laughter.

One example is a new movement to educate the public about how food is a medicine for health. The food is medicine (FIM) movement aims to bring more components of nutrition into the healthcare system.
