Terra Wellington Offers These Tips For A Healthier '08
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--With 2008 upon us, New Year's resolutions are on everyone's mind.
But instead of making a daunting and unachievable list this year, make
simple changes to your daily routine, which are easy to stick with and
offer maximum benefit. Frequent Wellness and Lifestyle Television
Contributor Terra Wellington has these suggestions:

   BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

   If you boost your immune system it can help you get sick less
often. One way to do that is by introducing flavonoids into your diet.
According to the latest USDA report on flavonoids it talks about the
fact that elderberry fruit has the highest concentration of
flavonoids. You can get that through a supplement such as one from
Sambucol.

   AVOID RESTRICTIVE DIETS

   Dieting is something that we think about at the New Year. Instead
choose a healthy living lifestyle approach, which can be difficult
when you're on the go. Flat bread melts from Lean Cuisine can help you
stay on that approach. They're less than three hundred and thirty
calories only nine grams of fat and they're something that you can eat
when you have those cravings without feeling bad.

   SNACK SMARTER

   If you want to find out ideas on what some healthy snacks are you
can go to Sunsweet's website. They have a number of tables with
nutritional snacks including their Sunsweet ones, individually wrapped
prunes. For example, if you make a healthy choice between four Sunweet
ones and popcorn and four Sunsweet ones, your ones are going to be
healthier because they have no fat and also they're going to have five
times more potassium, which can boost your energy.

   TAKE YOUR ORAL HEALTH SERIOUSLY

   According to the Centers for Disease Control over ninety percent
of adults that are forty years and older still have tooth decay, which
can be prevented by regular brushing and flossing. If you're looking
for toothpaste options you can check out the new Arm and Hammer
Advance White Toothpaste. It has baking soda as the cleaning agent,
which is less abrasive than other cleaning agents. It can help remove
those surface stains and clean the plaque off your teeth.
