🌱 McGehee Family Clinic Health Update 🌱
Hey friends — September isn’t just back-to-school season; it’s also National Fruits & Veggies Month — a great reminder that what we eat plays a huge role in keeping ourselves and our family members healthy.
Recent reports are raising flags over rising rates of chronic conditions in the U.S., especially among children. Risk factors like poor diet, high consumption of ultra-processed foods, obesity, and exposure to certain environmental chemicals are all being linked to this trend.
âś… At McGehee Family Clinic, we want to help you take small, meaningful steps toward better health:
Add one more fruit or vegetable to your plate each day (snacks like carrot sticks, apple slices, berries are easy wins).
Choose whole foods over ultra-processed foods when possible.
Watch for sugar hidden in drinks & prepackaged foods.
Let us help if you’d like a personalized nutritional plan — our nutrition resources are here for you.
If you want to discuss concerns about diet, environmental exposures, or managing weight more healthily, we’re here. Prevention and small changes can make a big difference.
Feel free to call to schedule an appointment. Stay well, McGehee family! 🌟
