| "On stressful days when I can't find a block of time to exercise or relax, I do things to regroup that don't take much time, such as sitting quietly for a few minutes and taking deep breaths." — Deborah J. Rhodes, M.D. |

Today's Nutrition Tip
Get your fill of fiber
There are two types of fiber: soluble, which dissolves in water, and insoluble, which doesn't. Soluble fiber — such as oats, peas, beans, apples, citrus fruits, carrots, barley and psyllium — can help lower blood cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Insoluble fiber — such as whole-wheat flour, wheat bran, nuts and many vegetables — promotes the movement of material through your digestive system and increases stool bulk, which can help improve constipation or irregularity.
