The purpose of this website is to give every African-American, especially NBCI members and congregants, the latest scientific information concerning physical exercise and nutrition in the Black community. The African-American community has reached a tipping point in the areas of physical exercise and nutrition. Our issues with accurate health information, excessive weight, and bad nutritional behavior have created a dynamic that will cause over 50% of the Black community to be medically and/or physically disabled within the next 10-15 years unless we change. This is why NBCI has taken on this extraordinary project to get African-Americans moving while providing scientific and helpful information about physical exercise and nutrition.
Each of the sections that we have laid out in this website is specific to gender and age within the population of the African-American community. Each section contains articles, videos, expert opinions and demonstrations, helpful and life-saving information, as well as motivation so that we can start treating our bodies like the holy temples that God has created. The Scripture says, ‘I came that they may have life and have it abundantly’ and this is the aim of the National Black Church Initiative’s Physical Exercise and Nutrition Initiative. We want African-Americans to re-discover abundant living through proper and efficient exercise techniques and sound nutritional practices.

Healthy meals start with planning
Your healthy meal plan is ready. Grocery shopping for nutritious food is done. But when you’re ready to fill your plate, how much is too much?
A plan for healthy eating includes knowing how much food your body needs. And then eating that amount, no more and no less. Two measurements can help you do this: serving size and portion size.
Serving size
A serving is the amount of a food or drink that people typically take in. You’ll see the serving size on nutrition labels for packaged food. The label also tells you things like how many calories or grams of fat are in that serving of food.
Fresh food, such as broccoli or meat, has a serving size too. Of course, fresh foods may not have labels, but you often can find out the serving size for these items on the internet.

Garlic has many potential health benefits, including:
Garlic has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years.
