Berries and fruits are healthy foods, and in winter it is a drop of sunny summer on a plate.
From December 19 to December 25, the "Week of popularization of the consumption of fruits and berries in winter" started in the sanatorium "Beautifully". Thanks to meetings with doctors of the sanatorium, lectures, conversations, printed materials, vacationers learned what amount of fruits and berries is sufficient in the human diet.
Lovers of garden gifts are ready to crunch fruits and berries constantly, without needing any recommendations. And for those who do not consider fruits and berries as the basis of the diet and have not been accustomed to them since childhood, experts have developed a simple formula - at least 5 servings of fruits and berries per day, at any time of the year. Especially in winter we need to support our body. So, every person over 5 years old, in order to stay healthy, should eat at least 5 servings of different berries and fruits a day. One serving for each person is the volume of fruits and berries that can fit in his handful. A handful of a five-year-old child is much smaller than a handful of an adult man, and their portions naturally vary according to size and body weight. One serving of an adult, on average, is, for example, 2 apples, a pear, a bunch of grapes, 4-5 plums, a glass of juice. Five servings for an average adult, in weight equivalent, amount to about 300 – 400 grams of fruits and berries per day, which corresponds to the WHO recommendation.
The fruits and berries that come to the tables of our vacationers are grown in the gardens of the sanatorium, environmentally friendly. And skillful chefs, fulfilling the wishes of customers, bake fragrant apples and pears, prepare fruit salads, freshly squeezed juices that remind us of a bright summer in winter.
Come to the "Beautiful" for health!

Sanatorium doctors - cardiologists, therapists and narrow specialists, offer smokers to give up the addiction, conduct conversations and meetings with vacationers.

Sports, travel, lack of contact with smokers will help get rid of tobacco and the threat of cancer, chronic bronchitis and other diseases. And, in general, folk wisdom is right a thousand times – All the vices are from idleness.

World Salt Awareness Week is celebrated annually in the first days of November. By the word "salt" we most often mean table salt. As the saying goes: "Everything is good in moderation," and with salt this is especially true. It is important to observe the golden mean, to know that there is a daily norm of salt for a person, and to adhere to it, and this is no more than 5-8 grams per day. Salt is not food. It can cause water retention in the tissues. It clogs the ducts, and the fluid cannot leave the body. As a result, edema forms, and excess sodium chloride begins to accumulate. Sodium increases blood pressure, which is harmful to health in hypertension. If the disease develops, a stroke may occur. Excessive intake of salt into the body causes various diseases of the kidneys, liver, and heart.
Health workers of the sanatorium "Krasivo" took part in popularizing a healthy lifestyle and promoting the reduction of salt intake and prepared conversations, films, booklets, leaflets for vacationers. The doctors of the sanatorium held a seminar - "Taste of Life" and a social advertising contest about self-restriction of salt and snacks. The purpose of the events is to reduce the consumption of salty foods in the diet of people in order to improve the health of the human population.
We join the all-Russian movement to limit the use of salt and invite you to follow the minimum standards for the use of salty foods!
