Healthy Tip of the Week: What is a superfood anyway? Fruits and vegetables are protective to health as they’re helpful at reducing the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and some cancers. They’re also low in calories, which helps prevent obesity. While the term “superfood” doesn’t have an exact definition, dietitians would say it means nutrient-packed, and lots of fall produce fits that description. You could also count these foods as functional, meaning there’s science behind the fact that they’re better for your body, offering vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. If the food you eat is flavorful and satisfying, there is a good chance you will eat less and consume fewer calories, too, and that’s the key to dropping pounds.

Healthy Tip of the Week: When it comes to walking, there’s no magic formula for how many steps, miles, or hours you have to walk to lose the amount of weight that you want. Starting out, the key is to do more than you’re doing now. If you have a job where you’re on your feet all day, you have to do more than that. If you have a sedentary desk job, a walk every evening after dinner may show real results. A lot has been said about getting a baseline of about 10,000 steps a day for health reasons. If your goal is weight loss, you’ll likely want more than that once you get into a routine, but you don’t need to start there. Get your baseline first, and keep adding to that.
