Sugar-Sweetened Beverages: What You Need to Know 🚫

Did you know that drinks like soda, sweet tea, and many flavored coffees can pack a serious sugar punch? These beverages contribute to excess calories and blood sugar spikes, which can slow down your weight loss or health goals.
-Liquid sugars don't fill you up like whole foods do, so it’s easy to overconsume calories.

🥤 Why cut back?
-High sugar intake is linked to obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
Did you know that drinks like soda, sweet tea, and many flavored coffees can pack a serious sugar punch? These beverages contribute to excess calories and blood sugar spikes, and can slow down your weight loss or health goals.

A hernia happens when an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the muscle wall. Mesh is a medical-grade material surgeons use to reinforce the weak area during repair.

If you've heard about hernia repair and mesh, you might have questions, so here’s the scoop!

A hernia happens when an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the muscle wall. Mesh is a medical-grade material surgeons use to reinforce that weak area during repair.

✅ Why mesh? It provides extra strength to prevent hernias from coming back.
✅ Is it safe? Yes! Modern mesh materials are designed to be durable and compatible with your body.
✅ What about risks? Like any surgery, there are risks, but your surgical team carefully chooses the best approach for your health.

How to Build a Balanced Plate for Better Health 🥗

Eating balanced meals is one of the best ways to fuel your body, support your goals, and feel your best every day. Here’s a simple guide to creating a nutritious plate:

✅ Protein: Aim to fill about ¼ of your plate with lean proteins like chicken, fish, beans, or tofu. Protein supports muscle health and keeps you satisfied.

✅ Vegetables: Fill half your plate with colorful veggies—think leafy greens, peppers, carrots, and broccoli—for essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

✅ Whole Grains & Carbs: Use the remaining ¼ for whole grains or healthy carbs like brown rice, quinoa, or sweet potatoes to provide energy.

✅ Healthy Fats: Include a small amount of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil to help absorb nutrients and promote brain health.

Balanced eating doesn't have to be complicated! Small, mindful choices add up to big health benefits.
