A study conducted at the Veteran’s Affairs Medical Center
in Salt Lake City, found that mild exercise like walking
after meals, moved food through the stomach faster and
helped relieve minor indigestion.
Research shows that eating a wide variety of fruits and
vegetables protects you against cancer, heart disease,
and the effects of aging. Experiment with a variety of
brightly colored fruits and vegetables. Think of the
rainbow when putting together a salad or vegetable
tray.
Do NOT exercise when you are sick especially with fever.
When you are sick your body needs to spend all of its
energy healing itself. You will not derive benefits
from exercising when you are sick and you may even
slow your recovery.
