Very interesting study by prominent Haitian physician Dr. Carla Boutin-Foster. According to his research, People from the Caribbean who come to live in the US see a decline in their health over the years. Dr. Boutin-Foster associates the health decline among Caribbean nationals to mainly a sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy diets, loss of major sources of social support, and greater stress in the new environment.

The Haitian physician at one point was running for a U.S. congressional seat being vacated by Kendrick Meek, who is running for the Democratic Party's nomination in the U.S. Senate race. He was challenged by two other Haitian-Americans at the time. None of them wan the seat.
