About Live.Balanced

Today’s retail shoppers are looking to their local grocery store for guidance when it comes to planning easy, affordable and nutritious meals for their household. With NGA’s Live. Balanced program, grocers will be provided with the resources and tools to position your store as the trusted source for meal planning needs. This program was designed to drive sales across the total store and engage shoppers with multi-channel educational touch points to help them plan and prepare healthier meals at home.

All program materials were developed by Registered Dietitians and the resources provided can be used in-store and digitally to help encourage a balanced meal plan for consumers and drive wellness and business success for your stores.
