Oct. 11, 2010 - PRLog -- Cedar Hills, Utah – Heather Holker, 32, was crowned Mrs. Utah International this month and will go on to compete for the title of Mrs. International 2011 during the final competition in Chicago, July 19-23, 2011.
Holker is the mother of two young children and founder of Nutrition Health Sciences in Highland.  During her reign as Mrs. Utah International, she will continue to support and promote her platform, Type II Diabetes prevention, through her work with 5 Star Legacy Foundation, an organization that strives to end the cycle of poverty through health and education programs for children.  Holker serves as the national spokesperson for children’s health for the 5 Star Legacy Foundation and recently launched a Diabetes Prevention Ribbon Campaign with the foundation.
“Because of diseases like diabetes, our children are in the first generation not expected to outlive their parents, so teaching the fundamentals of how to live a healthy lifestyle is one of the greatest legacies we can give them,” said Holker.  “It’s my goal as Mrs. Utah International to help more children have a healthier future and to reach farther with diabetes prevention messages.”
In addition to each contestant’s charitable platform, International
Pageants, Inc. supports the National Heart Association’s Go Red for Women program through volunteer and financial support. The Go Red for Women movement is dedicated to fighting heart disease among women.
