Web Watch: ‘Everyday Health’ Offers Healthy Advice for Everyday Living
Web Watch is a feature at LGBTSr offering online finds of interest.
The more I age, the more I’m interested in discovering ways to improve my physical, mental and spiritual health. Not long ago I happened upon a website that offers suggestions, advice and resources that address all three of those pillars of well-being.
Everyday Health has more information, about more topics, than you could probably ever read. They also offer email sign-ups for daily newsletters on specific topics. I’m signed up for their Daily Dose of Healthy Living, Permission to Breathe, and Mental Wellness. You can see all their newsletter offerings HERE. Between the stresses of daily life, the stresses of aging, and all the other things, real and imagined, that weigh on us, it’s good to have a resource like this.
Everyday Health’s passionate, award-winning editorial team is committed to supporting you in your journey to live a healthy life each and every day. By adhering to the highest standards for accuracy, objectivity, and balance, we create trustworthy content based on up-to-date, evidence-based health and medical information and real world patient and clinician experience to help inform you how to take control of your health. Our content, including articles, graphics, videos, tools, and more, is created by experienced and accredited health journalists with valuable input from our Health Expert Network.
