The latest issue of Gezond Idee is out! All about temptation, habits and healthy choices

Why do we keep reaching for our phones? Why does that bag of crisps end up in our shopping basket? And why is it sometimes so difficult to break an unhealthy habit? These are some of the questions explored in the latest issue of Gezond Idee, Maastricht UMC+'s free magazine. Available online from 9 October at gezondidee.mumc.nl and delivered to 185,000 households across South Limburg.

This edition focuses on temptation. You'll discover, for example, what happens in your brain when you really want something and how shops, apps and advertisements influence our choices. Social media, unhealthy food, vaping and alcohol are just some of the topics covered. Most importantly, the magazine explores how to build healthier habits step by step. Several people from South Limburg share their personal experiences and explain how they are putting this into practice.
