COLUMBIA, MO. (KMIZ)
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, medical experts are reminding families to keep safety at the heart of their celebrations. Overeating and holiday stress can pose health risks, especially for people with underlying conditions, according to experts, so planning your meals carefully is key.
Macaroni, mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes are staples on many Thanksgiving tables. While these comfort foods are a favorite, Dr. Regina Depietro with MU Healthcare emphasized the importance of having a balanced plate to avoid bloating and other post-meal issues.
