Tips for Eating Healthy During the Holiday Season

Drink a glass of water at least 30 minutes before your meal to fend off hunger & overeating

When eating meat like turkey or ham, skip the skin and cut off any fatty parts

Chew your food thoroughly to get the best digestion and to assimilate the most nutrients

Slow down and enjoy the meal and the company you are with, take pauses between bites

Focus on the veggies, salads and fruits first so you’ll eat less of the fattier & more filling foods

Take smaller portions of stuffing, meats and sweets

Stay hydrated with water (alcoholic and caffeinated beverages are dehydrating)

Avoid sugary beverages such as sodas, sweetened teas and sports drinks

Limit your servings of deserts/pies, cookies and candies, just pick one

Take a relaxing walk with family/friends after the meal before settling in for the night

HAPPY & HEALTHY HOLIDAYS TO YOU!
