June 17 is #EatYourVegetablesDay. Adults should aim to munch 2 to 2 ½ cups of vegetables in a rainbow of colors every day. Get the most vitamin for your veggie with these nutrient-packed winners. 🥬 Leafy greens like spinach and kale are a great source of vitamins and antioxidants that promote heart health, while swiss chard is known to decrease blood sugar levels and prevent damage caused by diabetes. 🌱Radish is a low-calorie root vegetable packed with nutrients, including vitamin C and fiber. These nutrients promote healthy skin, blood vessels and digestion. 🥦 The glucosinolate in broccoli has been shown to prevent certain types of cancers and other chronic conditions. Same goes for Brussels sprouts. 🍠 One medium sweet potato has 4 grams of fiber and 2 grams of protein, which promote healthy weight and blood sugar levels. Plus, they’re packed with vitamins C, B6 and A. #CleanEating

We want to wish a happy and healthy #FathersDay to all of the dads and father figures in our lives from us at Mercy Health.
Spending time with dad is such a treat. But what about performing surgery with him? That's the case for Dr. Surender Neravetla and Dr. Soumya Neravetla, thoracic surgeons at Mercy Health who are also a dad and daughter duo. Dr. Soumya didn't always plan on operating by her dad's side but she was drawn to his profession and has worked with him on many procedures and helped save lives.
What do you love doing with dad?

☀️😎 You wear sunscreen to protect your skin, but what about your eyes? The sun’s UV rays can expose unprotected eyes to sunburn and can cause other serious conditions like cataracts, macular degeneration and skin cancer on the eyelids.
Look for sunglasses that filter 100 percent of UV light and wear them whenever you’re outside, especially around water.
