6 NUTRITION TIPS FOR A HEALTHY SUMMER

“They work together like a true team!” “I went to FYZICAL therapy for tendonitis on both my ankles. Right ankle was worse. Chrystal had been helping me. I felt better after my first visit. I really like their helpfulness, willing to listen and attention to detail. They work together like a true team. The receptionist is very warm and attentive. They also maintain a strict schedule so even if I go on my lunch break, I can be sure to be back in time.” - Geeta G. TELL US HOW WE DID!

Are you aware of the true importance of nutrition? Your diet affects many aspects of your well-being including your immune system, bone health, muscle function, inflammation, and pain. Conditions including heart disease and diabetes are also impacted by dietary intake in both development as well as management. If you need some help maintaining a healthy diet this season, take a look at these 6 nutrition tips: 1. Swap out snacks for fruits and vegetables. Every day, it is recommended that you consume at least 5 portions of a variety of fruits and vegetables. If this sounds challenging, remember that fresh, frozen, canned, dried, or even juiced fruits and veggies are all options. 2. Replace steak with fish. Fish is a great source of protein and contains many vitamins and minerals. You should try to incorporate at least 2 servings of fish in your diet every week. 3. Lessen your saturated fat intake. Did you know that too much saturated fat can raise your blood cholesterol levels, increasing your risk of developing heart disease? Examples of food rich in saturated fat include:

4. Cut down on sugary drinks. With the hot weather, it can be almost instinctive to reach for a cold soda out of the cooler. However, drinks high in sugar content can contribute to obesity and tooth decay. Try opting for a cool refreshing glass of water instead, or a tasty fruit smoothie! 5. Make sure you’re drinking enough water. Proper hydration is always important, but it becomes even more so during those hot summer months. It’s recommended that you drink around 6 to 8 glasses of water a day. 6. Don’t forget breakfast. A healthy breakfast should be a part of your daily routine. Eating breakfast sets the tone for your day and gives you the energy you need to make it to lunch! We hope these tips will help you navigate this season and prioritize your health this summer!
