With Thanksgiving next week, we want to share some helpful tips for making your big meal healthier without sacrificing the things you love about the holiday! ๐ ๐ฆ
-Healthy Cooking Methods: Instead of frying or using butter-rich methods, consider roasting, grilling, steaming, or baking some of your dishes. ๐ฝ๏ธ
-Reduce Sugar: To cut back on the amount of sugar in recipes or use natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. For example, sweeten cranberry sauce with orange juice.๐ ๐ฏ
-Whole Grains: Choose whole grain options for stuffing, rolls, and other dishes. Adding quinoa, brown rice, or other whole grain into your usual stuffing, creates some nice texture.๐พ
-Vegetable Sides: Increase the number of vegetable-based sides on the table. Consider dishes like roasted Brussels sprouts, green beans or carrots with a little olive oil and salt and pepper. Make a colorful salad.๐ฅ ๐ฅ
-Mashed Alternatives: To switch up your mashed potatoes, try a mix of potatoes and root vegetables like parsnips or turnips. ๐ฅ ๐
-Dessert Alternatives: Consider adding fruit-based desserts like baked apples or pears. Additionally, some fresh sliced apples or pears in the dessert spread add a nice source of fiber and can help curb that sweet tooth. If making pies, try a crustless version or one with a nut-based crust.๐ ๐ ๐ฅง
-Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Sometimes our bodies confuse thirst with hunger.๐ฐ
-Mindful Eating: Pay attention to your hunger and fullness cues. Enjoy the flavors of the meal, and try not to rush through eating. Engage all of your senses to savor each bite.๐
-Stay Active: Encourage family activities like a pre and post-meal walk or a game of touch football.๐ ๐
Remember, Thanksgiving is as much about gratitude and spending time with loved ones as it is about the meal. Making a few healthier choices can help you enjoy the holiday without compromising your health goals! ๐งก

๐ Neck pain is a common complaint and can result from various causes. Some of the most common causes of neck pain include:
๐ฌ ๐ป ๐ฑ ๐ Muscle Strains: Overuse, such as spending too many hours hunched over a computer or smartphone, often triggers muscle strains. Even minor things like reading in bed or gritting your teeth can strain neck muscles.
๐ Worn Joints: Just like other joints in your body, the neck joints tend to wear down with age. Osteoarthritis can cause the cushions between your bones to deteriorate. This can affect joint motion and cause pain.
๐ Nerve Compression: Herniated discs or bone spurs in the vertebrae of your neck can press on the nerves branching out from the spinal cord, leading to pain.
๐ค Injuries: Rear-end auto collisions often result in whiplash injury, which occurs when the head is je**ed backward and then forward, straining the soft tissues of the neck.
๐ ๐ Poor Posture: Chronic poor posture, especially with forward head posture or slouching, can lead to prolonged stress on the neck structures and contribute to pain.
๐คฏ Tension and Stress: Emotional stress and anxiety can lead to tension in the neck muscles, causing discomfort.
It's essential to note that while these are common causes, neck pain can result from other conditions or factors as well. Our Orthopedic providers at Fast Pace Health can help provide a proper diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.

Both medications and psychotherapy have proven effective for many people battling depression. At Fast Pace Health Behavioral Health, we offer a range of services to help you manage your depression effectively, from licensed counseling to medication management.
