#SaludTues Tweetchat 1/5: How to Start 2021 with a Healthier Lifestyle!

Are you making a New Year’s resolution for 2021?

It might be spending more time outside. It might be quitting smoking.

Or you could be trying to eat healthier. What we eat and drink affects our body’s ability to prevent, fight, and recover from infections, like COVID-19.

Let’s use #SaludTues on Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2020, to tweet about how we can keep our New Year’s goals of eating healthier, getting more physical activity inside and outside, and quitting smoking!

We’ll open the floor to your comments, tips, and stories as we explore:

  • Getting healthier is a popular New Year’s resolution, but what does that even mean?
  • Why physical activity is so important for health promotion and disease prevention?
  • How does technology help or harm a healthier lifestyle?
