5 WAYS TO BOOST YOUR FAMILY’S HEALTH IN MARCH

1

Add eggs to colourful, mixed-veg salads. They significantly increase absorption of vitamin E from the vegetables, says a new study.

2

Whether your children are four or 14, try to put the smartphone away when you’re with them. Research shows that phones can create negative interactions with children because your focus is elsewhere.

3

Get teens running. A recent study found that going for a run after studying made them better at retaining the information they’d learnt.

4

Hang out at home. While it’s nice to be out and about, a recent study found that family leisure time at home can create more happiness than heading out together.

5

Ditch the diet drinks. A recent study showed that just two a day more than doubles your risk of type-2 diabetes.
