With the media being such a large part of society, it’s hard to know when information is accurate or when it’s a fabrication. This is extremely common in the world of health, and we often receive conflicting information about the best way to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Below are just a few health and nutrition tips backed by science for these difficult times.
1. Avoid sugary beverages
It’s often convenient to grab a sugary drink when we are in a rush, or even when we are out to dinner. But consuming these drinks can have consequences, such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease. It’s best to drink something that is low in sugar.
2. Don’t fear coffee
While too much of anything is never a good thing, coffee is actually high in antioxidants and can help reduce the risk of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.
3. Get enough sleep
Sleep is extremely important for our mind and body in order to function properly. When our bodies don’t get enough sleep it can drive insulin resistance, disrupt appetite hormones, and reduce physical and mental performance.
4. Drink some water, especially before meals
Drinking enough water throughout the day can have numerous benefits. Some studies have even shown that it can increase your metabolism. Another study found that drinking water 30 minutes before each meal increased weight loss.
5. Use plenty of herbs and spices
Due to powerful benefits, you should try to include as many herbs and spices as possible into your diet. Ginger and turmeric are two spices that have multiple health benefits, both contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties.
6. Don’t overcook or burn your meat
Meat is an important part of your diet since it’s high in protein. But, if you eat overcooked or burnt meat this can lead to the formation of harmful compounds that can raise your risk of health issues.

Have you heard of package scams that come right to your door? West Carrollton Police issued a scam warning on social media. They say a “sneak scam” is making the rounds across the country. “It’s called a ‘brushing’ scam, and it’s like getting an unsolicited surprise gift from your not-so-friendly neighborhood trickster!” the department said. “Picture this: you get a random package from Amazon or some mystery shop, filled with shiny goodies like rings, bracelets, or even a Bluetooth speaker. Exciting, right? But wait, there’s no sender info, just your address on the label. Inside, you’ll find a QR code begging to be scanned to unveil the mystery sender.” Scanning the code could lead people to a phishing site. This is where crooks could try to swipe your personal and financial information, the department explained. “You can toss the gift or keep it as a bizarre conversation starter, but whatever you do, don’t scan that QR code!” they added. The concluded if it is a mysterious package, it’s best to leave that QR code alone. The Better Business Bureau and U.S. Postal Service have more about this scam. This story first appeared on

By Chad Roope, CFA®, Chief Investment Officer 2024 was a great year for the U.S. economy and equity markets. A strong economy, led by strong labor markets and significant investments in Artificial Intelligence, equated to double digit corporate earnings growth and thereby strong equity market performance.

This overweight and our focus on active asset allocation, fundamental research and timely trade communications led to solid performance in our client portfolios in 2024, with most of our strategies strongly outperforming their benchmarks. Our proven process and seasoned team of Chartered Financial Analysts stand ready to navigate what is likely to be a dynamic environment in 2025. We think 2025 may prove to be a more volatile year given several uncertainties and rich starting valuation levels, but we think the year should prove to be a solid overall. Below are our key views: We expect U.S. outperformance compared to the rest of the world to continue amid solid economic growth, strong labor markets, lower inflation levels, a supportive Federal Reserve, and the potential for tax cuts and deregulatory policies. We continue to prefer large-cap, high quality U.S. equities as we think this is where the strongest overall earnings growth will continue to be. In fixed income, we are prioritizing higher income, shorter duration exposures t
