The food we eat influences our health, and the food choices we make on a regular basis can have an impact on physical and mental performance. Since you spend more than 50% of your waking hours at work, the food choices you make at your base/wing can potentially influence your overall health and operational effectiveness.
The Set Your Sights on Health Eating (SYS) program helps you recognize the food choices that are lower in fat and sodium, and higher in fibre. The program symbol makes it easy for you to choose the healthier entrée.
Look for:
| Healthier Entrée |

The SYS program is not new. Implemented in 2005, Strengthening the Forces, an initiative of CF Health Services in partnership with CF Food Services, have been working together to provide SYS menu options that make healthy eating in CF dining halls easier while providing a variety of food choices.
