Managing stress, eating wisely especially important now, says doctor and CLC gradApr 9, 2020 9:54 AM - With the majority of America under stay-at-home orders to help thwart the COVID-19 pandemic, managing stress and eating healthy foods are critical steps in fighting the virus now and building a healthy lifestyle for the long-term. That's the word from Dr. Melanie Smith, a 1982 College of Lake County graduate who is a family practice physician at Advocate Aurora Medical Center in Burlington, Wis. "With many homes now stocked full of food supplies, the best way to prevent rapid weight gain is to reduce the stress that often creates an urge to eat," said Smith, who has a special interest in helping patients fight obesity. "Stress produces a hormone, ghrelin, that makes you feel hungry. If you're starting to feel a need to eat something, drink a glass of water and see if the hunger is still there. Then go for walk. Also, use your preferred ways to manage stress, whether it's deep breathing, meditation or praying to help you stay on course."
