Programming Overview: May 22-28

Week 3 of the EDCF Nutrition & Wellness Program starts this week!

The goal for this week is to consume 2-3 liters of water each day and aim for 6-8hrs of sleep/night. Make your sleep environment conducive by eliminating light before bed. Looking at a TV or computer screen will keep your brain stimulated and with inhibit proper sleep.  For the 30 minutes leading up to when you are going to bed remove yourself from light sources.  Yes, your cell phone and tablet count too. Try to stay off them.  Black-out curtains are also a good and cheap investment to help create good sleep patterns.  The goal is to go to bed and wake up at roughly the same time each day.

During Week 3 we will also start supplementation with fish oil (anti-inflammatory), vitamin D (aids calcium absorption for bones, combats lethargy, supports cardiovascular health) and a daily probiotic supplement.  Gut health is your first defense from illness.

As always, reach out to your assigned coach if you have any questions or concerns!
