DALLAS (KDAF) — PLEZi Nutrition , the Public Benefit Company co-founded by former First Lady Michelle Obama, has announced its latest partnership with Stephen and Ayesha Curry. As parents of four and co-founders of the Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation , the Currys join PLEZi Nutrition as investors and brand partners, contributing their passion for health and wellness in service of the company’s mission to inspire and enable healthier habits in kids.

PLEZi Nutrition is on a mission to set higher standards for how food and beverages are made and marketed to children in the U.S., leading with nutrition, taste, and truth.
