Adhering to a nutritious diet can be challenging at any time of year, and especially so during the holiday season. Baked goods and big meals are at seemingly every turn come the holiday season, and that can test even the most devoted dieters. In fact, a 2016 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that the average American’s weight increases by 0.4 percent over Christmas and 0.2 percent over Thanksgiving. Curiously, the researchers found that the majority of weight gain occurs in the 10 days after Christmas. November & December 2022 • Senior Scope
