As the weather gets chillier and winter flu and cold season continues, it’s important to take steps to prevent illness and to check in with you and your child’s health care providers. ❄️

To boost your winter wellness, prioritize sleep, take vitamin D supplements (with approval from your doctor), sip herbal teas to warm your body, use a humidifier to prevent nose bleeds and sore throats from dry winter air, and wash your hands regularly with warm soapy water. 🍵💤🧼

WIC also offers health care referrals and nutrition education to help your family stay healthy this season, learn more at www.signupwic.com!

Did you know? 🤔Oats contain large amounts of beta-glucan, a type of soluble fiber! Beta-glucan partially dissolves in water and forms a thick, gel-like solution in your gut. 🥣 This helps move food further along through your digestive system and creates prebiotic effects! ✨

The health benefits of beta-glucan fiber found in foods like oatmeal include:

🌟reduced blood glucose and insulin response

🌟increased growth of good bacteria in the digestive tract

🌟regulation of type 2 diabetes

What are your favorite ways to make oatmeal for your family? 🫐🥛🍌

It may be chilly outside but it won’t stop us from getting outside to exercise and enjoy the crisp air this winter! ❄️

Bundle up and go on a family walk together, make snowmen or angels, or try sledding! 🛷

Too cold and snowy to go outside? Try putting some fun music on and have a dance party to get some movement in! 💃🕺

Moving (PCSing) is a part of life for many military families, and your WIC benefits can move with you. You can even set up benefits before your household goods arrive at your new home! Many WIC offices are located on or near military bases, making it easier to get support. WIC is also available overseas through the WIC Overseas Program; wherever you're stationed, support is within reach.
