Rest is not reserved for adults. Children and teens need downtime too. When your child gets home, it can be tempting to get them immediately involved in chores or homework-related tasks. However, this can be overwhelming for them after 8 hours of learning and social interactions at school. Instead of giving them tasks as soon as they get home, give them a break instead. Provide a snack (or make one together!) and let them relax for an hour or so. This will allow their minds to recharge before tackling their daily to-do list at home. Introverted kids will especially benefit from designated quiet time after school. - #kidsneedrest #rested #teenhealth #takeabreak #beatoverwhelm #recharge #introvertedkids #brainbreak #aftershool #healthykids #healthyteens #tipsfromdrE

One of the most common problems young children face is constipation. This usually stems from a lack of fiber in their diets due to picky eating habits. When coupled with a healthy intake of water or water-rich foods, fiber helps your body’s digestive system break down foods and move them through the body. In other words, they make your child’s trips to the bathroom more pleasant. Before you run to the medicine cabinet, try incorporating one of these 10 fiber-rich, kid-friendly foods into every meal; oatmeal, apples, low sodium popcorn, carrots, bananas, whole grain bread/pasta (if they are not allergic to gluten), berries, and sweet potatoes. - #healthykids #fiberfoods #trythis #healhyhabits #healthyremedies #tipsfromdrE #fightconstipation #naturalremedy #nomedicineneeded #tipsfromadoctor #nutrition #keepEulesshealthy #Eulesstx

Are you looking for ways to improve your health? We suggest starting by gaining a general understanding of what's going on in your body now. A general checkup, physical, and blood work can be a quick and easy way to evaluate the body's current condition and create a foundation for setting health-related goals. If you're on medication, we will determine whether or not you'll need to continue taking them, switch to another option or if your health has improved enough to stop taking them in general. Preventative health screenings are the best way to get ahead of any small health concerns before they become big concerns. In case you haven’t seen it, check out our website and set up an appointment for your yearly exams/checkups. - #tipsfromDrE #Eulesstx #understandyourbody #knowyourstatus #takecare #starthealthy #stayhealthy #gethefacts #lifestyle #monitoryourhealth #comeseeus #getactive #walk #run #jump #getmoving #action #movement #mobility #checkup #trueconnections #generationsprimarycare
