🌞👣 Flip-Flop Summer Fun—Without the Pain! 👣🌞

School’s out, and flip-flops are in! But did you know your favorite summer sandals could be causing knee or back pain? Protect your feet, knees, and back with these expert tips from Dr. Nick Romansky:

Top Flip-Flop & Sandal Tips for Healthy Summer Feet:

1️⃣ Heels Matter: Choose sandals with a slight heel and a supportive heel cup (think Teva or Chaco).

2️⃣ Quality Counts: If your flip-flops are worn out or squished, it’s time for a new pair! Opt for brands like Havaianas for better support.

3️⃣ New Over Old: Even expensive sandals lose support over time—shock absorption is key!

4️⃣ Mix It Up: Don’t wear the same pair all day, every day. Change it up for healthier feet.

5️⃣ Stick With What Works: If you have a favorite, supportive brand, don’t switch just for style.

6️⃣ Support Matters: Flat sandals = no arch support. Find what works for your foot shape.

7️⃣ Flip-Flops in Moderation: Save them for the beach, not everyday wear. For style and support, try Olukai or Vionic.

Bottom line: Take care of your feet this summer, and your knees and back will thank you!

🥦 8 Foods That Aren’t as Healthy as You Think
Not all “healthy” foods are equal… Are you eating these eight foods that could be sabotaging your wellness goals?
Granola Bars: While often seen as healthy, many granola bars are loaded with sugar, refined grains, and artificial additives. Look for options with the lowest sugar and highest fiber that list whole ingredients.

Flavored Yogurt: Many flavored yogurts are packed with sugar and artificial ingredients. Opt for unflavored or low-sugar versions, keeping an eye on the daily added sugar limit (25g for women, 36g for men).

Deli Meat: Processed deli meats can be high in sodium and tied to health risks. Choose freshly cooked meat, low-sodium options, or plant-based alternatives like tofu or avocado.

Powdered Vegetables: Powders and snacks made with powdered greens often lack fiber, a key nutrient for gut and heart health. Stick with fresh or frozen produce instead.

Coconut Oil: High in saturated fat, coconut oil can increase heart disease risk. Olive, canola, and avocado oils are healthier alternatives. Use coconut oil sparingly if desired.

Juice: Most store-bought juices are high in added sugars and lack the fiber of whole fruit. Choose products with minimal sugar and ingredients or stick to whole fruits.

Plant-Based Meat: Many plant-based meats are processed and high in saturated fats. Avocado, beans, tempeh, and tofu are healthier, minimally processed alternatives.

Organic Snacks: “Organic” doesn’t always mean healthy. These snacks often have as much sugar, unhealthy fats, and calories as non-organic versions.

Key Takeaway: Balance is essential. Treats can fit into your diet, but focus on moderation and mindful choices.

🧠 Walking for 5 Minutes Does THIS for Your Brain

Science says a brisk, 5-minute walk can have a surprising effect on your mental health. Want to take care of your brain and mood this summer? Start stepping!
A new study in Age and Aging reveals that just five minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise, like brisk walking, can significantly enhance brain health, especially in older adults. Activities that raise your heart rate improve blood flow to the brain, enhancing processing speed, executive function, and working memory.
The greatest benefits were seen in individuals who are usually sedentary, with even a small increase in daily activity making a big difference. Brisk walking, for example, is any pace where you notice your heart rate and breathing increase.
Short on time? A quick lap around the block may be all you need to give your brain a solid boost.
