Your Path to Quality Sleep
Having trouble sleeping? Proper sleep hygiene involves habits and practices that support quality rest and overall well-being. Key elements include maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends, and creating a calming bedtime routine. Your sleep environment should be cool, dark, and quiet, with comfortable bedding and minimal distractions. Limit screen time and avoid caffeine, alcohol, and heavy meals close to bedtime. Regular physical activity supports better sleep, but avoid intense workouts right before bed. Reserve your bed for sleep only—no work or scrolling. By sticking to these habits, you can fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up refreshed.

May is Celiac Awareness Month
During this month, help us spread awareness for Celiac disease. Celiac disease is a chronic digestive and immune disorder that damages the small intestine. The disease is triggered by eating foods containing gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. Over time, this reaction damages your small intestine’s lining and prevents it from absorbing nutrients. The intestinal damage often causes diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss, bloating and anemia, and can lead to serious complications. Your doctor will explain the gluten-free diet and may refer to you a registered dietitian who specializes in treating people who have celiac disease.

May is Eye Health Month
Senior eye health is essential for maintaining independence and quality of life. As we age, the risk of eye conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy increases. Regular eye exams can detect these issues early, improving the chances of effective treatment. Seniors may also experience changes in vision clarity, color perception, and tear production. Protecting eye health includes managing chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension, wearing sunglasses to block UV rays, eating a nutrient-rich diet, and avoiding smoking. Staying proactive with eye care helps seniors preserve their vision and continue enjoying daily activities safely and confidently.
