The New About Health Is Here

Fitness     From Wendy Bumgardner, your About Fitness Editor     At About.com, we improve people’s lives with answers, ideas and inspiration. This week we’re rolling out the new About.com, our first new site in nearly a decade. It’s been a yearlong labor of love, and we are thrilled to share it with you. What does that mean for About Health? We got a shiny new look, for one -- big photos, a clean layout, and a beautiful new homepage [health.about.com] that makes credible health information easy to find. We’ve also found some amazing new Health Experts to tell you how to dine out right, about unique fitness trends and how you can instill healthy habits in your children, too.
