Here is a 4 line quotation integrated into a sentence in my essay:
According to leading health expert Dr. Susan Smith, making healthy choices is about more than just weight loss or appearance. As she states:
"Health is about feeling your best both physically and mentally. It's finding energy and joy in everyday activities rather than feeling drained. Making small changes like adding more vegetables or taking a walk after dinner can lead to big improvements in overall well-being."
This quotation effectively captures Dr. Smith's perspective that health is about overall wellness, not just physical appearance or numbers on a scale. Focusing on small, sustainable lifestyle changes and how they can enhance quality of life is a motivating message.
