When you think of assessing your health, there might be one powerful biomarker you’re overlooking: Grip strength.

Grip strength reflects overall muscle health and is a key marker for biological aging. In fact, a recent study from the Journal of Sport and Health sciences analyzing grip strength data from 2.4 million+ people across 69 countries established grip strength as a global health biomarker.

Why? Low grip strength is associated with:
✔️ Sarcopenia - the progressive loss of muscle mass and strength
✔️ Cardiovascular disease
✔️ Type 2 diabetes
✔️ Cognitive decline
✔️ Poor recovery after surgery

👉 Want to know if you're in the healthy range for grip strength? Tap the link here to read our latest article, Grip strength: A powerful predictor of full-body health: https://bit.ly/3NfGpxc. Find out how to test and get your number!

Plus, learn three simple ways to improve your grip strength and overall health.

Talent Spotlight: Dr. Darren Larsen 🩺

After 14 years in a major downtown teaching hospital, Dr. Darren Larsen made a big change. He joined Medcan’s Year-Round Care team in Collingwood and Muskoka.

He wasn’t sure what to expect – no residents, no students, and a whole new patient community. But he came with an open mind and a goal to reignite his passion for medicine.

And now? He’s clear that he made the right choice. In his recent editorial on our site, he shared:

"When I leave the clinic at the end of my shifts, I feel like one of the luckiest people on earth...I work in a clinic that supports me because it supports patients so well. I feel reconnected to my community. Every day I receive heartfelt thank-yous..I feel proud of my work – and proud of everyone I work alongside."

Tap the link in bio to read the piece Dr. Larson felt inspired to write. He’s one of the incredible physicians we are thrilled to have on the Medcan team.

One of the biggest challenges to staying active during the holidays? Time.

Here’s a science-backed tip: to stay on track with your fitness goals, try snacking...on exercise!

Short bursts of movement – just a few minutes at a time – can help you maintain fitness and boost your health.

A recent meta-analysis in Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine found that these “exercise snacks” improve VO₂ max, blood pressure, waist size, and cholesterol when done regularly.

How to snack on exercise:

✅ Aim for 2–3 mini sessions per day

✅ Choose 2–3 moves from our list of options (or speak with your fitness trainer)

✅ Make it fun

You don’t even need a gym or equipment, just creativity and a few minutes!

Squeeze in some reps while you wait for a coffee to brew. Or, when you notice you’ve been sitting at your desk for long spurts, slip in a mid-day exercise snack for a quick boost of energy.

It’s an all-too-common scenario: You’re committed to healthy habits… then the holidays hit. Treat trays, cocktails, and appetizers you feel rude turning down – sound familiar?

So, how do you enjoy the season without derailing your goals?

Medcan dietitian and nutrition lead for Medcan’s Weight Management program, Christine Melanson, has one simple piece of advice: “Use your values to guide your choices.”

This approach helps you make decisions that feel natural, while still savoring the season. Her top three strategies:

✅ Be mindful: Choose the traditions or foods you truly value and skip the ones that aren’t as meaningful.
✅ Make smart adjustments: Opt for smaller portions of your holiday favourites and plan ahead using the go-to strategies that work best for you.
✅ Set realistic goals: Rather than abandoning your goals altogether, adjust them so they are realistic and manageable for you.

In our latest Insights article, Christine breaks down each tactic and shares practical tips for making value-centered choices this season – and into the new year! Tap the link in bio to access the article.
