A HEALTHY START These days, the word “health” has countless definitions, from the physical to the psychological, and everything in between, depending on an individual’s concerns and goals. At the end of the day, quality of life and general well-being come in a multitude of ways. We’ve kept that diversity of needs in mind as we put together the 2019/20 Best Health Guide for our readers in New Westminster. From community health services to medical professionals, advice on getting active and ideas about nutritious food, we’ve got it covered in these pages. Whether you’re just starting to explore a new healthier life, or you’re well on your way, we hope this guide will help you explore, discover, and learn – and most of all, inspire you – to continue down the path. From our hands to yours, we welcome you to explore the 2019/20 Best Health Guide.
