Did you know?

Nearly 1 in 5 urinary tract infections may come from bacteria found in meat.

A new study published in mBio found that 18% of UTIs were likely caused by E. coli originating from animals — mainly chicken and turkey, followed by beef and pork.
Another reason to think twice about what’s on your plate. 🌱

Just 3 tablespoons of oil a day = 37 pounds a year! 😮

Each tablespoon of oil has about 120 calories — that’s 360 extra calories a day, or over 131,000 a year.

If those calories are in addition to what your body needs to maintain your weight, that could mean gaining up to 37 pounds in one year.

It’s amazing how quickly liquid calories can add up! 🌿✨

Small daily choices can make a big difference for your health and weight!
