Hello health seekers, happy to share alongside us the good news that June has arrived, and with it, the official start of summer!

June, through August are all about embracing the warmth and joy of the season. Everyone should finding new ways to enjoy the great outdoors.

Whether you're planning a picnic, going for a hike, or simply soaking up the sun in your backyard: remember to be cautious of medical and environmental challenges that come with celebrating the beauty and wonder of our natural world.

Whether it's through camping, fishing, kayaking, or simply taking a leisurely stroll through a park, there are endless opportunities to explore and appreciate the great outdoors.
But our health remains the greatest wealth. Take your routine medications and don't forget the approved over the counter insect repellants, sun burn ointments and allergy reducers.

If you're a fan of music, June/July is also home to many music festivals and concerts, from classical to country to rock and roll. So grab your friends and family, and enjoy the sounds of summer while maintaining adequate precautions associated with crowding.

After touching external surfaces, rails, chairs and bottles please wash your hands and disinfect bags, shoes and clothes.

Lastly, June is a time for graduations, both high school and college. Congratulations to all the graduates out there, who have worked hard and achieved great things.

Although this is a time to celebrate accomplishments, please do not overwork or overexert yourself. Stress can trigger the exacerbation of any existing illness or medical diagnosis.

Watch your energy level and act accordingly. Rest and sleep well. Do not forget those medical appointments that have fallen in between these jolly months.

Health is Wealth.

Chronic conditions aka long-term physical conditions, are health conditions that last at least one year and require ongoing medical attention or limit daily activities. They are often not curable, but can be managed with medication or other treatments.

Some examples of chronic conditions include:
Arthritis, Asthma, Cancer, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Diabetes, Heart disease, High blood pressure (hypertension), HIV/AIDS, Multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson disease.

Regular physical activity can help you to manage chronic conditions and prevent complications. It can also help you feel better, function better, sleep better, and control your weight.

Some ways chronic illnesses can negatively impact you include:

Irritability and difficulty in relationships
Anxiety, tension, sadness
Loss of interest in things you once enjoyed
Disturbed sleep
Fatigue
Body aches and pains, including headaches
Cognitive issues

Follow up with your primary care doctor. Do not wait till things take an awful turn before managing your health. At this unsavoury point, disease managing becomes an expensive burden. Act on time.

Health is wealth.

Happy New Year everyone. Here's a wish for a prosperous 2024 to you and all your loved ones.

"Don’t Skip A Beat": Prepare for Heart Attacks.
The important facts about a healthy heart remain the same:

1) Know the risks. Be educated about the risks you and your loved one could be facing. Everyone has only 1 heart. Take good care of it. Adjust your diet positively. Improve your exercise routines. Be kind to people. Love yourself positively. Care for others genuinely.

2) Never be afraid to have a heart-to-heart discussion. Engage friends, family members, and loved ones in a conversation about the risks associated with a heart attack and discuss what you can do together to prevent a heart attack.

3) Recognize the signs of mild and fatal heart attacks. Never ignore an ominous sign, no matter how small or insignificant it seems. Slurred speech, sudden memory loss, unrecognized absent-mindedness, persistent headaches, chest pain (whether radiating or non-radiating), etc. Get help immediately. Do something. It's better to be safe, not sorry.

4) After each visit to your healthcare provider or after a recent hospitalization by you or your loved one, write down important information. Build on your knowledge. Expand your health-seeking behaviors. Be more involved. Be a client. Be an active participant in your life and in the life of your family members.

As we always, say: Health is Wealth.

Remember, small changes become BIG when put together.
