Kifowit Helping Residents Eat Healthy During the Holidays

AURORA, Ill. – With the holidays just around the corner, state Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego, is hosting a Healthy Eating During the Holidays as part of her monthly Third Thursday presentations on Thursday, Nov. 16, at 6 p.m. at the Aurora Library-Eola Road Branch, located at 555 S. Eola Rd in Aurora.

“When a friend of mine was hospitalized last year because he had consumed too much sodium over the holidays, I realized how difficult it is to monitor eating during this time of the year,” Kifowit said. “The different variety of foods over holiday meals can pose obstacles for those trying to eat healthy.”

Kifowit’s Healthy Eating During the Holidays seminar will be an informational session featuring a registered dietitian from Rush Copley Hospital. As seating is limited at the library, those interested in attending the information session are encouraged to RSVP by calling Kifowit’s constituent service office at 630-585-1308 or by email at RSVP@ILDistrict84.com.

“My seminar will offer residents tips and ideas on how to avoid unhealthy eating and keep away those pesky extra pounds and keep blood pressure low,” Kifowit said. “I want families to be able to enjoy their time together rather than worrying about unhealthy eating.”
