Quick Tips to Good Health

• Stay on top of your health! Keep regular checkups and preventative screenings with your doctor.
• Be active. Move more and partake in at least 2 ½ hours of moderate-intensity activity every week. Include aerobic activity and muscle strengthening activities to keep your health in top shape.
• Eat healthy. Include a variety of fruits and vegetables in your diet every day. These fruits and veggies will provide you with the vitamins and minerals you need to help protect you from chronic disease.
