Wellness Tip of the Week
With warmer days coming ☀️ consider using the grill to eat healthy and delicious meals but remember avoid grilling meats 🥩 over open flames and/or at high temperatures 🌡️ . This produces chemicals on the meat that when consumed can lead to high blood pressure. Avoid eating grilled meats that are overdone or burnt. Try grilling fruits 🍐 and veggies 🥦 to add color and nutrients to your meal. Remember to trim fats, use portion control, choose whole grain sides and use low sodium rubs and seasonings for the heart 🫀 healthiest options!
