In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain some basic food safety tips so you can avoid food poisoning.

Here are some easy tips for you to protect yourself and your family. Red meat shouldn’t be brown until after you cook it. Canned foods should be dented or have bulges. Bleach is your friend – use it on cutting boards, plastic drinking containers and kitchen counters. Buy a thermometer for your refrigerator and make sure it doesn’t dip below 40 degrees F. Foods in your freezer should be rock hard – not slushy. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.

Simple Things You Can Do To Keep Your Child Safe

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain some child safety tips. Sometimes its hard to keep your kid safe because they move so fast and are very slippery when they are wet. But here are some of the easy things you can do…Teach your kid to swim at a very young age. Now I’m not talking swimming lessons to make them the next Michael Phelps, I’m talking survival swim lessons, so they don’t drown if they accidentally fall into a pool, jacuzzi or bathtub. When you are teaching your child to ride his/her bike explain the importance of braking without crashing into things. In the car always buckle up – and make sure your kids know its never a good idea to thrown things in the car – a thrown object can distract the driver or the object can get stuck under the brake pedal under the drivers feet. Little kids also shouldn’t be handling lit fireworks. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
