*While Anthem makes every effort to ensure that the lists of doctors and hospitals are up to date and accurate, providers like Enloe do leave the network from time to time, and the listings need to be changed. Updating the provider lists are done as quickly as possible but there can be a time when a provider shows up that should no longer be listed. If there are any questions about a provider being in the Anthem network, calling the provider directly and having their office confirm the current most up to date status would be the most effective course of action.

You don’t have to slave away for hours to make a meal healthy and nutritious. Indeed, healthy eating can be quick, easy and delicious. With a little creativity you can make your meals healthier in mere seconds! Here are some simple ways to boost the nutrition and flavor of your dishes:
- Add a tablespoon of toasted wheat germ or hemp seeds (hemp kernels) to your morning cereal, oatmeal, yogurt or smoothies. Both have a slightly sweet, yet nutty flavor and are loaded with nutrition including minerals, vitamin E, fiber, protein, omega-3 fats and folate.
- Sprinkle cinnamon in or on your morning coffee, cereal, yogurt, oatmeal or toast. This sweet spice improves the metabolism of glucose and cholesterol, which translates to protection from type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
- Add fresh salsa to your eggs, veggies, pasta or poultry dishes for an instant boost in lycopene, vitamin C, potassium and fiber. Most grocery stores now carry ready-made cartons of fresh salsa in the refrigerator sections.
- Spice up your bean, poultry and rice dishes with turmeric or curry spices. Both are teeming with the golden yellow pigment, curcumin, now world-famous for its anti-inflammatory power.
- Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of canned 100% pumpkin to your yogurt, oatmeal, or smoothies. Low in calories, high in fiber, canned pumpkin is an underutilized superstar food. It’s loaded with carotenoids, which play a central role in the health of your heart, eyes, skin and immune system.
