FLU SEASON IS HERE — ARE YOU PROTECTED?

Flu season may be starting earlier than expected, so now is a good time to think about protecting yourself and your loved ones.

Here’s what you should know:
The flu can sometimes cause serious complications.
A seasonal flu vaccine can help reduce your risk of severe illness.
It typically takes about 2 weeks for protection to develop after vaccination.

Don't wait until flu is spreading around you to start thinking about prevention. Ask your healthcare professional or local pharmacist about the flu vaccine recommended for you.

Share this reminder with someone you care about. A little awareness can go a long way!

Constantly craving salty snacks? Your habits may be worth a closer look!

Stress can influence our eating habits, but salt cravings can have several causes.

Try this simple reset:
Choose water when you're thirsty.
Add lemon for a refreshing twist.
Be mindful of excess sodium from packaged snacks.

Remember, lemon water isn't a treatment for electrolyte imbalances, and adding extra salt to your water isn't necessary for everyone.

🥑 Healthy Cooking Fats: Are You Using the Right Oils?

Not all cooking fats are created equal! 🫒

Choosing the right cooking oil can make a difference in your everyday diet. Avocado oil and extra-virgin olive oil are rich in unsaturated fats, while coconut oil, butter, ghee, and beef tallow contain higher amounts of saturated fat.

✅ Choose unsaturated fats more often.
✅ Use saturated-fat-rich options in moderation.
✅ Focus on balance, portion sizes, and overall dietary quality.

Remember, the best choice also depends on how you cook and your overall eating habits!

👇 Let's talk! Which cooking fat do you use most in your kitchen? Olive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, butter, ghee, or beef tallow? Tell us in the comments!

6 HEALTHY FATS vs. 6 OILS TO RETHINK — WHICH ONES DO YOU USE?

Not all cooking fats are created equal! The type of fat you choose can influence your heart health, cholesterol levels, and overall well-being.

6 FATS THAT CAN FIT INTO A HEALTHY DIET

1. Avocado Oil
Heart: Rich in monounsaturated fats that can support healthy cholesterol levels when replacing saturated fats.

2. Coconut Oil
Energy: Provides quickly digested fats, but it's high in saturated fat, so use it sparingly.

3. Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
Heart & Blood Vessels: Rich in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants that support cardiovascular health.

4. Beef Tallow
Energy & Cell Function: Supplies dietary fat and fat-soluble nutrients, but its high saturated-fat content makes moderation important.

5. Grass-Fed Butter
Bones & Cells: Provides some vitamins A and other fat-soluble nutrients, but it is high in saturated fat.

6. Ghee
Energy & Nutrient Absorption: Provides concentrated dietary fat that helps absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K, but is also high in saturated fat.

⚠️ WHAT ABOUT THESE 6 COMMON COOKING OILS?

Canola Oil: Low in saturated fat and rich in unsaturated fats; can support heart health.
Corn Oil: Contains polyunsaturated fats that can help lower LDL cholesterol when replacing saturated fats.
Soybean Oil: Provides essential omega-6 fats that support normal cell function.
Sunflower Oil: Supplies vitamin E and unsaturated fats that support healthy cells.
Safflower Oil: Rich in unsaturated fats that can help improve cholesterol levels when used as a replacement for saturated fats.
Grapeseed Oil: Contains polyunsaturated fats and vitamin E, although its overall health benefits depend on the whole diet.

THE TAKEAWAY: Olive oil, avocado oil, canola oil, and other unsaturated-fat-rich oils can all be smart choices. Coconut oil, butter, ghee, and beef tallow are best used in moderation because they contain more saturated fat.

Health with Herbs Reminder: No single oil can heal an organ or prevent disease on its own. Your overall diet, portions, and cooking habits matter most.

👇 LET'S TALK! Which cooking fat do you use most: OLIVE OIL, COCONUT OIL, BUTTER, OR GHEE?

OMAD Fasting: 23 Things You Should Know Before Eating Just One Meal a Day!
Have you ever heard of OMAD? It stands for One Meal a Day, a form of intermittent fasting in which a person eats all their daily food within one meal and fasts for the rest of the day.

Some people try OMAD to simplify their eating routine, manage their calorie intake, or support their weight-management goals. But is eating just once a day really beneficial? Let’s take a closer look! 👇

23 Potential Benefits People Associate With OMAD

1. May help reduce food expenses
2. Saves time spent preparing meals
3. May help some people manage their eating habits
4. Can encourage more mindful food choices
5. May influence the body's cellular repair processes
6. May support weight management
7. May help some people feel mentally focused
8. May help some people manage snacking habits
9. Weight changes may benefit some people's skin health
10. Some people report changes in energy levels
11. May help some people establish a consistent routine
12. May affect concentration differently from person to person
13. May influence certain markers of inflammation
14. May improve some blood pressure markers in certain people
15. May support heart health when part of an overall healthy lifestyle
16. Its long-term effects on dementia risk remain uncertain
17. May improve some measures of blood sugar control in certain people
18. May support liver health when it helps improve excess body weight
19. May help with fat loss if it creates a sustainable calorie deficit
20. Can encourage consistency and planning
21. Maintaining muscle still requires adequate protein and resistance exercise
22. Does not automatically speed up a slow metabolism
23. Some people appreciate the simplicity of a structured eating routine

⚠️ Important: OMAD is not suitable for everyone, and many of these benefits are not proven specifically for eating one meal a day. It can make it difficult to get enough nutrients and protein, and some people may experience fatigue, dizziness, headaches, or overeating.

People with diabetes, those taking blood-sugar-lowering medication, pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, and anyone with a history of eating disorders should seek professional medical advice before attempting prolonged fasting.

The goal isn't to eat as little as possible — it's to nourish your body in a way that supports your health.

Tell us in the comments: Would you try eating just one meal a day, or do you prefer three balanced meals?
