Health Nut for the Day


THE SECRET BEHIND H2O!

The secret is you have to drink it for it to work.

Water is the most accessible and one of the most beneficial things you can take for your body.

Skin issues?...drink more water and cut back on pop and sugary drinks. Your skin will clear up

Joints or arthritis?...drink more water to hydrate your joints

You'd be surprised what other benefits you get from drinking enough water.

How do you know if you're drinking enough water?

Take your weight, divide that by 2, and drink that number in ounces.
(Example: 150 lbs, divided by 2 is 75 lbs. 75 ounces is minimum amount of water to drink per day.)

"Health Nut for the Day"

Oatmeal is a great source of fiber that has cancer-fighting properties. It can also help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol. People who eat oatmeal on a regular are less likely to develop heart disease. It's also good for those with diabetes because the fiber slows down starch digestion so blood sugar won't spike right after a meal.

If you're not a big oatmeal person try it out with some fruit like blueberries or bananas or your favorite fruit.

Feel free to post some of your favorite ways to eat oatmeal.
