Here are tips to stay healthy this Autumn. If going to a tailgate party, choose healthy options like grilled vegetable skewers and opt out of alcohol. Make sure kids are sleeping enough as being tired increases hunger hormones. Avoid triggers to finally quit smoking. October through November is the optimal time to get a flu vaccine, but can be done as late as December. Make mindful changes, like keeping track of your intake, around holiday foods to avoid gaining excess pounds. Have some sweet potatoes and hot coffee. Finally, get plenty of exercise.

Key Takeaways:

• Getting insufficient sleep can contribute to unhealthy weight gain in children by boosting hunger and deterring exercise.
• It’s very important to reduce your risk from influenza by getting your annual flu shot and washing your hands.
• Exercise every day, and moderate your food choices and portion sizes at holiday events.

“Enjoy your favorite brew, but switch it out for zero-calorie beverages as the party rolls along.”
