Through the Ticket to Health project, the department’s Healthiest Weight Florida initiative is highlighting healthy choices in theme parks and zoos throughout the state on their website and with a downloadable brochure. “Summer is the perfect time for Floridians and visitors to get outdoors and explore Florida’s many attractions,” said State Surgeon General and Secretary of Health Dr. John Armstrong. “Programs like Ticket to Health help make healthy choices the easier choices.” Ticket to Health recognizes the theme parks and zoos that help visitors eat smarter and be more active. Many parks offer salads and grilled options, as well as items suitable for kosher, vegetarian or gluten-free diets.
