OETT is creating longterm change for the benet of
Oklahomas students, said Dr.
For the health conscious, theres no such thing as a summer vacation from making good nutritional choices and getting plenty of
exercise. But theres no reason to let a healthy lifestyle become
boring.
Here are three ways to let the summer season guide your routine:
Mix Up Movement: After months of indoor exercise, you
may be ready for a change of scenery. And summer is the ideal
time to take a break from the treadmill and incorporate different
types of movement and exercise into your lifestyle. So ditch the
gym this weekend and head for greener pastures. From row boating
to hiking, youll nd yourself activating different muscles than you
normally would by mixing things up.
Eat In-Season Produce: Take advantage of the summer harvest and plan meals around in-season produce. The USDA lists
apples, beets, bell peppers, kiwifruit, carrots, garlic, peaches, okra
and cherries, amongst many more fruits and vegetables that reach
their peak in the summer months. These items are a chock full of
vitamins and nutrients and taste their best in summer.
Summer Sun: Beyond the Vitamin D factor, a study published
in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology shows that sunlight
may lower blood pressure, which could reduce ones risk for heart
attack and stroke. Some researchers now say the benets of sunlight could outweigh cancer risks associated with exposure. Dont
forget to take the usual precautions, however. Wear sunglasses,
sunscreen and a wide brimmed hat to protect against harmful UV
radiation. (StatePoint)
