Dehydration: A Serious Health Risk for Seniors
As you age, your sense of thirst diminishes. So even when your body needs to be replenished with water, you might not realize it. Because of that, many seniors do not drink enough liquids. By the time they are thirsty, it is already an indication of early dehydration. The consequences of dehydration are well known. Dehydration is a common cause of hospitalization among elderly people that can have serious health consequences. Water can get boring but don’t limit yourself – supplement with juices, milk, fruits and vegetables that contain high water content!
Back-to-School Back Care
With the return of school comes the return of daily backpack wearing. Backpacks are designed with two shoulder straps to distribute weight evenly. Wearing only one strap at a time with the weight of textbooks and laptops can cause shoulder muscle strains and muscle imbalances. Long-term muscle imbalances can leave people, especially young, growing adults, susceptible to long-term injuries such as tendonitis. These injuries can be painful and bothersome to recover from. The best way to avoid these backpack-related issues is to use the backpack as intended. Your shoulders may thank you for it.
