Hey there health enthusiasts,
I’ve got some great news to share with you! Did you know that certain foods can help fight inflammation in our bodies? Harvard experts have revealed that fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and certain oils and fatty fish can help reduce inflammation. On the flip side, foods like sugary sodas, refined carbohydrates, and processed meats can actually fuel inflammation. The key takeaway here is to focus on an overall healthy diet that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, fish, and healthy oils, while limiting foods high in simple sugars and refined carbohydrates.
In other news, researchers have found a potential link between the artificial sweetener xylitol and an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. So, it might be a good idea to be mindful of your intake of this sugar substitute.
And for those concerned about bone health, the health experts at Harvard Medical School have released a Special Health Report on osteoporosis. This report is filled with evidence-based practical steps to help strengthen your bones and prevent life-altering fractures. From bone-protecting exercises to smart nutrition tips and information on bone-strengthening medication, this report has got you covered.
So, let’s take charge of our health and make informed choices when it comes to what we put into our bodies. Here’s to a healthier and stronger you!
Stay healthy,
Summy
Stay Well!
