Hello Health Conscious friend,
Almost all of us will make a New Year’s resolution
to improve an aspect of our health.
After the overindulgence of Christmas, many people see the new year
as an opportunity for self-improvement.
Below are some of the most common New Year health resolutions .
Lose weight
Quit smoking
Get Fit
Eat more fruit and vegetables
Floss Your Teeth
Like many people, you may not know that bacteria in your mouth

can lead to serious problems if you neglect oral health.

You may also be surprised to learn that during routine exams,

your dentist can spot indications of diabetes and heart disease.

One simple thing you can do to head off bacteria is floss your teeth.
Increase Antioxidants
When your body breaks down food it produces molecules called free radicals.
Cigarette smoke and radiation also produce free radicals.

Over time, the damage from these substances can result in
conditions like infection, cancer, inflammation, and heart disease.

That's where antioxidants step in. How you can sum up their role:
Once you cut an apple, it begins to turn brown, but if you dip it in orange juice,
which contains vitamin C (an antioxidant),
it stays white.
You can defend your body the same way by including rich sources in your diet.

Yours in Wellness
