Subject: [SDOH] Inquiry: Economic Value of Nutrition for Prevention

To whom it may concern,

Does anyone happen to have any studies or citations regarding the value of nutrition in terms avoided health costs?  I.e.  if you spend $x on nutrition how much in terms of health costs do you avoid?  

Any insightful information and advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Fair winds and light song,
