🍓 Sweeten Smart, Not More! 🍋
Cutting back on added sugar is easier than you think:

💧 Think about drinks – choose water or sparkling water with fruit.
☕ Add spice, not sugar – try cinnamon, nutmeg, or cocoa powder.
🍎 Satisfy your sweet tooth – fresh fruit makes a great dessert.
🧁 Split the sweets – share dessert to enjoy half the sugar.
📊 Check the label – watch for added sugars like syrup or dextrose.

🍎 A little less sugar adds up to a lot more health!

Self-Care Tips for Veterans
Taking care of your mental health is just as important as caring for your body.
Try these small but powerful ways to support your well-being:
Exercise or spend time outdoors – fresh air and movement can lift your mood.
Practice mindfulness or meditation – even 5 minutes a day can help reduce stress.
Connect with peer support groups – talking with others who understand makes a difference.
Remember, small steps make a big difference — and you don’t have to do it alone.
