MONTREAL, Feb. 26, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ - There are only 72 hours left to register for the 5/30 Health and Wellness Challenge and the Quit to Win! Challenge, two campaigns promoting healthy lifestyle habits initiated by ACTI-MENU.

The 5/30 Health and Wellness Challenge

• 5 Goal: eating at least 5 servings of fruit and vegetables a day
  
• 30 Goal: being active at least 30 minutes a day
  
• Wellness Goal: thinking about one's strengths for increased wellness in life

The spokesperson for the Health Challenge, actor and host Mélanie Maynard, invites the population to register immediately, either alone, as a family, or as part of a team for a maximum of motivation!
