Good morning! Working out and lifting weights comes with so many health benefits (more muscle, a stronger heart, etc.)
You just don’t want to get injured from the activity that is supposed to be good for you. And I’m saying this as someone who’s recently overloaded (and needs to rehab) her hip stabilizers. So, if you’re keeping an active schedule this summer, here are some expert-backed tips to prevent injury.
What’s one way you like to warm your muscles up for a workout? Let me know by replying to this email! –Molly Knudsen, M.S., RDN, editor Pssst… if you like this newsletter, odds are that your friends will too. Send them this link to get on the list. |

The best beverage to drink for heart healthCoronary heart disease (CHD) impacts 1 in 20 U.S. adults. While tea has long been linked to better heart health, most research has focused on generally healthy adults. A new study suggests the habit may also benefit those already living with CHD.¹
The study: Researchers followed more than 25,000 adults with established CHD for about 14 years, tracking major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including heart attack and stroke.
What they found:
- Drinking 3 cups of tea per day was associated with a 17% lower risk of MACE.
- Enjoying 4+ cups daily didn’t come with additional benefits.
Who benefits the most? Benefits were strongest among participants with higher levels of inflammation but lower lipoprotein(a), a genetic cardiovascular risk factor.
What type of tea? This study didn't separate tea type, so green, black, and herbal tea can all contribute to these benefits.

“I spend a lot of time trying to figure out what to feed my family for dinner. One day, while I was brainstorming at work, I dreamed up this moo shu-inspired chicken. I thought I had ground chicken in the fridge, but when I got home, I realized I only had chicken breasts, so I improvised and cut them into small pieces-it turned into an even better dinner than I imagined.” —Melissa Ben-Ishay, Co-Founder of Baked by Melissa |
