People with arthritis often face challenges with mobility, personal care, and activities of daily living. Family caregivers are sometimes limited by how often they can be with their loved ones to lend a hand. By expanding the care team, regular, ongoing support would be beneficial for the person living with arthritis and provide peace of mind for family. A Care Professional helps minimize arthritis-related difficulties by assisting with ambulation, bathing and grooming, home projects, light housekeeping, meal preparation, laundry, bedding changes and transportation. With family or a private company, explore the care options your loved one needs and deserves.

Inflammation: Good, Bad, or Both?
Inflammation is a crucial aspect of the body’s healing process, wherein inflammatory cells journey to injury sites, prompting recovery. Yet, chronic inflammation signs can be elusive – examples include abdominal and chest pain, fatigue, fever, joint discomfort, and stiffness (like in rheumatoid arthritis), as well as mouth sores and skin rashes (as in psoriasis). Turmeric presents a natural solution for pain and inflammation. Notably, curcumin, an extract of turmeric, is renowned for its potent anti-inflammatory properties, effectively alleviating pain, and dampening inflammation. Regarded as one of the most robust botanical anti-inflammatories, Good Habits Market takes pride in offering prime curcumin varieties, available as liposomal soft gels, or liquid.

Cavity and Dental Disease Prevention
A cavity happens when bacteria in the mouth produces acid that attacks your teeth. Over time, this acid can dissolve away the tooth enamel and cause a hole, or cavity. Unlike some other diseases or injuries, a cavity will not heal by itself, but if the early signs of dental decay are promptly treated before a cavity forms, it can be stopped or even reversed by your dentist and your home care. To prevent dental disease: brush twice a day, floss once a day, eat a balanced diet, limit eating and drinking between meals, and visit your dentist regularly.
