The people who conducted this study should be embarrassed. First off they chose BJ's wholesale, which I would venture to say doesnt have the healthiest of employees on the planet and doesnt represent a good sample. Second, they didnt actually track what the individuals were actually doing, were they eating a diet high in greens and low in processed foods? Were they getting cardio in daily? Were they smoking, drinking excessively? How anyone serious about health, nutrition, or even cost spending could take this study seriously, beyond me.
- coleca 7y agoWhy would the study want to target "the healthiest employees on the planet"? That would bias the study. Seems to me they chose a random company (that would agree to participate) with average workers. The whole point would be to see if these programs improve healthcare. Honestly, the majority of BJ's workers work in a giant warehouse store and get a lot of walking in daily as part of their job.
