Food for Fuel!
As we dive deeper into the holiday season and unite over our favorite holiday recipes, some of our favorite ingredients are our friends. Not only do these foods taste delicious, but they also help boost our immune system, improve the maintenance of our body, and protect us from certain diseases and cancers – food is fuel, so let’s celebrate it!
Immunity-Boosting Buddies
Our immune systems work hard to keep us healthy every day. So why not give it a helping hand? Here are some foods that provide your defense system a boost!
Helpful Herbs
The ancient Greeks used to rely on various herbs and spices as treatments for any ailments they faced. Today, we have modern medicine to step in and do the heavy lifting! However, research shows that many herbs and spices can help with specific symptoms as a holistic alternative. Here are some of the healthiest herbs and spices you can try today!
Note: There is no scientific evidence that these herbs and spices cure diseases. Individuals with severe health conditions should still consult with a medical health professional for treatment.
Fantastic Fruits (and where to find them)
Good news! Your produce aisle or local Farmer’s Markets are home to fantastic fruits that keep you healthy by preventing certain types of diseases. Here are some superfruits and their benefits for you and your family to try today!
Stay safe this holiday season!
Don’t forget to practice healthy habits before, during, and after celebrating the holidays with your loved ones! Let’s make the holidays safe for everyone.
