It doesn’t matter if you’re 25 or 65 – there’s a little something for everyone! We all know the illnesses and problems linked with obesity and an unhealthy lifestyle. This expo can help you jumpstart your new, healthy lifestyle, or introduce those already on the right track to fitness to new ideas and techniques to try. Whether a small change in what you eat or a big change in your activity level, the trade show displays will offer everyone something of value.
What’s There?
There will be over 100 trade show booths set up in the exhibition space to browse, offering a little bit of everything. You’ll find the latest fitness innovations and nutritional supplements, to companies specializing in children’s health and those catering to the elderly.

CareSpot Urgent Care Clinics, for example, will offer visitors to their booth BMI, blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol tests, while the American Family Care trade show display will provide flu shots for attendees.
