Check out the May 2021 Be Well newsletter from EMI. Stories include:
- Deciphering Medical Studies - Nearly every day we read or hear about the results of new medical studies. The amount of information is overwhelming and coverage varies among news outlets. Some research is groundbreaking, while other studies add to many years of scientific inquiry.
- Rethink Kid Food - Check any restaurant children’s menu and the selection will look much the same: burgers, pizza and chicken fingers. While familiar and delicious, these foods offer little nutritional value. They provide more salt and fat than children require, and rarely contain enough fiber or vegetables.
- Balancing Act - Work and Family We’ve all heard it’s important to have a work-life balance. But figuring out how to achieve it isn’t always easy.
- Blood Pressure Ranges Explained - It’s important to know your blood pressure numbers and what they mean. After all, high blood pressure raises the risk for stroke, heart attack, kidney disease and dementia.
