Right at Home, a provider of In Home Care and Assistance services included a timely article in their Newsletter "CARE" on how to maintain a healthy heart during the holiday season. The article is by Dr. Rita Redberg, a leading cardiologist at the University of California San Francisco. Although the holidays can be a hectic time, Dr. Redberg provides 10 tips for getting through the season feeling healthier and less stressed.
The two I like best are:
1. When going for the chocolate, start with "dark chocolate with intense flavors and savor a small piece of it. If it keeps you from eating that whole box of milk chocolates, it's done the trick."
2. When shopping, "take the stairs. Or pass up that parking space closest to the store and walk a little farther. Every step helps." You know my feelings about exercise: we never get enough!!

So, don't wait until your New Years resolutions start on January 1. Start now to help your heart stay healthy over the holidays.
Happy Holidays
