🤰 Exercise During Pregnancy: Good for Mom & Baby

Did you know that exercise during pregnancy may provide protective benefits for your growing baby?

Pregnancy is not a time to be afraid of movement. It's a time to learn how to move safely and effectively as your body changes.

Physical Therapy Fun Facts

The APTA was founded in a New York City restaurant.
In 1921, a group of 30 reconstruction aides and five physicians gathered at Keen’s Chop House in New York City. Led by Mary McMillan, they formed the American Women’s Physical Therapeutic Association. This organization would later become the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) we know today.

🥩 More Protein, More Health Benefits?

An interesting study from Johns Hopkins found that diets providing a higher percentage of calories from protein—approximately 25% of total calories from lean protein sources—were associated with additional health benefits compared with traditional higher-carbohydrate diets.

Participants following the higher-protein approach experienced greater reductions in:

• Blood pressure
• LDL (“bad”) cholesterol
• Triglycerides

The takeaway? Protein may play a bigger role in overall health than simply supporting muscle.

Choosing lean sources of protein and incorporating them regularly into your meals can be one part of a healthy, balanced approach to nutrition. 💪🥗

Individual nutrition needs vary, so protein intake should be tailored to your health, activity level, and goals.
