  • You can't literally gift-wrap health, much less stuff it in a stocking. But a gift that helps someone eat, sleep or exercise better can send a powerful message, said Dr. Laurence Sperling, the Katz Professor in Preventive Cardiology at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta.

The article from MSN titled "Oh, There's No Gift Like Health for the Holidays" emphasizes the importance of prioritizing health during the holiday season. It discusses how the festive period often leads to overindulgence in food and drink, reduced physical activity, and increased stress, which can negatively impact health. The piece suggests several strategies to maintain or improve health during this time, including moderation in eating, incorporating physical activities like walking or holiday-themed workouts, managing stress through mindfulness or relaxation techniques, and ensuring adequate sleep. It also highlights the benefits of giving health-related gifts like fitness equipment, gym memberships, or wellness experiences, which can encourage healthier lifestyles among friends and family. The overarching message is that health is the most valuable gift one can give or receive, promoting a balanced approach to enjoying the holidays while keeping well-being in check.
