How healthy is your Christmas dinner?

One of the most loved aspects of Christmas is spending time with family and friends and being able to indulge in lots of food and drink. However, research has shown that an average Christmas dinner contains as many as 7,000 calories.

But you shouldn’t necessarily feel too disheartened by what you’re eating – there are actually quite a lot of nutritional benefits from the traditional Christmas dinner. In our blog, we’ve uncovered some health benefits to eating turkey with all the trimmings!

And if you're feeling too full from eating and sitting down all day, why not go for a leisurely walk around your local area to see some Christmas lights.
