A Healthier You Workshop

Please join us for a healthy lifestyle class. Participants will learn the physical activity recommendations for adults and children, identify physical activity resources in their community, and learn how to incorporate more physical activity into their everyday lives.

Physical exercise has been shown to regulate blood sugar levels, burns calories, and is good for your heart. It can also help with depression and improve your mood.

Making healthy choices in your diet also can help. More fruits and veggies and high fiber will help lower the risk of things like diabetes and heart disease, and can reduce cortisol levels in your body. Cortisol is the hormone we use to measure stress levels. High cortisol levels are associated with elevated blood sugar, reduced immune system efficacy and can alter your mood in a bad way. The class will also teach how to make healthy granola bars at home. And you can taste test them there!

The workshop will be held at the 1912 Center in the Arts Room, 412 E Third St in Moscow. You can register here.
