In today’s Wellness Minute we share some ways to living healthy without busting your bank account. We cover some cheap workout choices. Some ways to eat out and save money. If you ever stepped inside a Whole Foods you quickly understand why it is referred to as Whole Paycheck. The prices can get up there in a hurry. Now the good news spin on high prices are it forces you to eat less - not beciase you weant to - but because it is all you can afford. So always go for quality - not quantity when it comes to food. And never go shopping when you are hungry. An inexpensive way to try a new restaurant is to go at lunch instead of dinner. And some cheap workouts are running or walking. Also always buy refurbished commercial treadmills for the home rather than a new “home” version. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
