Wake-Up Call For Parents

Limiting screen time for kids may protect their long-term heart and metabolic health. New research links excessive screen time to greater risk of cardiometabolic issues such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and insulin resistance in kids and teens. Experts tracked the health, sleep and tech data on adolescents who were followed from birth and analyzed their body composition at age 10 or 18. They were given risk scores based on waist circumference, systolic BP, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose. The study found that each extra hour spent on their phone or tablet or in front of the TV was linked with a significant increase in cardiometabolic risk.

Lifestyle Impacts Brain Health

According to a new study, lifestyle changes can slow cognitive decline; however, a structured program can amplify the benefits. The 2,111 participants ages 60 to 79 were cognitively healthy, but completely sedentary and at higher risk for dementia because of health issues. Half the group had a very structured intervention including supervised exercise, dietary counseling following the MIND diet, cognitive and social engagement activities and regular health monitoring. The self-guided group had similar recommendations but with less structure. Both groups improved cognitively, but the structured one more so.

Safe Handling Of Turkey

Experts say not to wash the bird before cooking, because the cooking process kills any surface bacteria. Not washing it also prevents bacteria from being splashed around your kitchen. Thaw a frozen turkey in the refrigerator in a shallow baking pan to prevent juices from dripping onto other foods. Allow 24 hours of thawing time for every 5 lbs. of turkey. During preparation, wash your hands and kitchen surfaces often to avoid spreading bacteria. Cook the turkey until it reaches a temperature of 165 to 170 degrees in the breast and 180 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh. Cook stuffing separately.

Exercise & Mood Disorders

A new review of data from 375 clinical trials involving about 38,000 kids ages 5 to 18 concluded that regular exercise can reduce mood disorders in children and teens. According to the analysis, it may even prove to be an alternative to medications. Depression symptoms showed the most improvement with moderate-intensity exercise that was a mix of aerobic and strength training routines. Anxiety improved through low-intensity resistance training such as lifting light weights. The workouts didn't need to be every day to see benefits; 1 to 3 times a week was enough.

Benefits Of Black Tea

Most of the benefits of black tea come from theaflavins. These are antioxidants that protect against many chronic diseases. Drinking black tea promotes heart health. It may help lower cholesterol and reduce heart disease risk. Consuming black tea may also reduce the risk of stroke. The caffeine and L-theanine in it may improve focus. Drinking unsweetened black tea may lower blood glucose levels and improve blood sugar management. Drinking at least two cups of black tea a day reduces the risk of death from any cause by 13%. One study found that it reduces the risk of squamous cell carcinoma skin cancer.
