Make healthy holiday eating less stressful with these tips

JACKSON, Tenn. — The holidays are a time for togetherness and eating, but our food choices don’t have to be stressful.

While all-or-nothing thinking is all around us this time of year, Lingo, Abbott’s first consumer Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM)  — and more knowledge about food, movement, and glucose levels — can help empower you to make healthier choices while still celebrating the festivities.

Best-selling author, and Nutritionist Pam Nisevich Bede’s best food swaps & tips for a healthier holiday include planning ahead, real-time data, and enhanced wellness.

“Holidays are these times that we really look forward to. A lot of times because we’re surrounded by friends, family, and food. Right? But we can make simple swaps, little changes to change how our body responds to those foods and keep metabolic health, and our general health and wellness, top of mind,” said Bede.

Lingo is made by Abbott, a global leader of this revolution. Together, we aspire to evolve the “Sick Care” system from focusing only on detecting and managing illness into something more proactive and empowering. A true healthcare system, where people don’t have to get sick to get help.
