DMC 61 Day Challenge kicks off this week

The Detroit Medical Center is celebrating its fifth anniversary of its popular DMC 61 Day Challenge that encourages participants to stay on a healthy track during the holiday months.

Typically, during the months of November and December, participants are asked to take the pledge to replace high-calorie foods with healthy substitutes. This year, participants are asked to consume more vegetables along with the previous challenges of consuming no soda, no fried foods and less sugar, together with taking more steps and eating more fruit.

The challenge kicks off on October 28.
