Description

Whether you live in a downtown core or a sleepy suburb, where you live has a key role in your health. Some features in the environment, such as sidewalks, get people active, while others can be a barrier to healthy living. In this episode, we discuss how things in your community, from streetlights to grocery stores to traffic pollution, affect your behaviours and ultimately your health. To see how walkable your community is, check out walkscore.com Follow us on Instagram @howtohealthpodcast, or drop us an email: how2healthpodcast@gmail.com
