ANNOUNCER:
THE HOLIDAYS ARE A TIME OF TOGETHERNESS AND CHEER, BUT DON’T GIVE UP YOUR HEALTHY HABITS.
MARY ANDERSON, DEPUTY EDITOR OF FITNESS MAGAZINE, SAYS THERE ARE EASY AND EFFECTIVE WAYS TO STAY HEALTHY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.
MARY ANDERSON, FITNESS MAGAZINE:
“In this time of sweet treats and little indulgences at holiday parties, the best way to make sure that you stay on track is to start your day off with a healthy breakfast. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines say that 95 percent of Americans don’t get the recommended amount of whole grains, so I recommend eating a whole-grain cereal for breakfast. Just time for New Year’s resolutions, cereals like Honey Nut Cheerios® and Total® will have more whole grains than any other single ingredient. In conjunction with a healthy lifestyle, a diet rich in whole grains has been linked to a healthier body weight and it may help reduce the risk of heart disease and certain cancers.”
