Preventive Care Practices for Eyes, Feet, and Kidneys


Diabetes – Glucose Control



Every percentage point drop in A1C blood test results, for example, from

8.0 to 7.0 percent, can reduce the risk of microvascular complications—eye, kidney, and nerve diseases—by 40 percent.


Diabetes – Blood Pressure Control





Reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease— heart disease or stroke— among people with diabetes by 33 to 50 percent and the risk of microvascular complications—eye, kidney, and nerve diseases—by about 33 percent.

For every 10 mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure, the risk for any complication related to diabetes is reduced by 12 percent


Diabetes – Control of Blood Lipids



Improved control of LDL, or bad, cholesterol can reduce cardiovascular complications by 20 to 50 percent.


Diabetes – Preventative Care





Detecting and treating diabetic eye disease with laser therapy can reduce the development of severe vision loss by an estimated 50 to 60 percent.

Comprehensive foot care programs— ones that include risk assessment, footcare education and preventive therapy, treatment of foot problems, and referral to specialists—can reduce amputation rates by 45 to 85 percent.


Monday is the day of the week when the risk of heart attack is greatest.





Yet another reason to loathe Mondays!

A ten year study in

Scotland found that 20% more people die of heart attacks on Mondays than any other day of the week.

Researchers theorize that it’s a combination of too much fun over the weekend with the stress of going back to work that causes the increase


Over 90% of diseases are caused or complicated by stress.



That high stress job you have could be doing more than just wearing you down each day.

It could also be increasing your chances of having a variety of serious medical conditions like depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. So take a deep breath and relax!


Nerve impulses to and from the brain travel as fast as 170 miles per hour!





Ever wonder how you can react so fast to things around you or why that stubbed toe hurts right away?

It’s due to the superspeedy movement of nerve impulses from your brain to the rest of your body and vice versa, bringing reactions at the speed of a high powered luxury sports car.






The brain operates on the same amount of power as 10-watt light bulb.

The cartoon image of a light bulb over your head when a great thought occurs isn’t too far off the mark.

Your brain generates as much energy as a small light bulb even when you’re sleeping.


80% of the brain is water.







Your brain isn’t the firm, gray mass you’ve seen on TV.

Living brain tissue is a squishy, pink and jelly-like organ thanks to the loads of blood and high water content of the tissue.

So the next time you’re feeling dehydrated get a drink to keep your brain hydrated.


What is Stress?







A feeling you get when faced with a challenge.

In small doses, stress can be good for you because it makes you more alert and gives you a burst of energy.

But feeling stressed for a long time can take a toll on your mental and physical health.

Even though it may seem hard to find ways to de-stress with all the things you have to do, it's important to find those ways. Your health depends on it.

Do women react to stress differently than men?





One recent survey found that women were more likely to experience physical symptoms of stress than men.

We do know that women often cope with stress in different ways than men.

◦ Women “tend and befriend,” taking care of those closest to them, but also drawing support from friends and family.

◦ Men are more likely to have the “fight or flight” response. They cope by “escaping” into a relaxing activity or other distraction.


Effect of Stress on Health





The body responds to stress by releasing stress hormones.

These hormones make blood pressure, heart rate, and blood sugar levels go up. Long-term stress can help cause a variety of health problems, including:

◦ Mental health disorders, like depression and anxiety

◦ Obesity

◦ Heart disease

◦ High blood pressure

◦ Abnormal heart beats

◦ Menstrual problems

◦ Acne and other skin problems


Handling Stress









Develop a new attitude

Relax

Take care of your body

Connect with others


Stress – Develop a New Attitude!





Be flexible

◦ Sometimes, it’s not worth the stress to argue. Give in once in awhile or meet people halfway.

Become a problem solver

◦ Make a list of the things that cause you stress. From your list, figure out which problems you can solve now and which are beyond your control for the moment.

From your list of problems that you can solve now, start with the little ones.


Stress - Relax







Take deep breaths.

◦ If you're feeling stressed, taking a few deep breaths makes you breathe slower and helps your muscles relax.

Stretch.

◦ Stretching can also help relax your muscles and make you feel less tense.

Massage tense muscles.

◦ Having someone massage the muscles in the back of your neck and upper back can help you feel less tense.


Stress – Take Care of Your Body







Get enough sleep.

Eat right.

◦ Try to fuel up with fruits, vegetables, beans, and whole grains.

Get moving.

◦ Getting physical activity can not only help relax your tense muscles but improve your mood.

◦ Research shows that physical activity can help relieve symptoms of depression and anxiety.


Stress – Connect with Others





Share your stress.

◦ Talking about your problems with friends or family members can sometimes help you feel better.

◦ They might also help you see your problems in a new way and suggest solutions that you hadn't thought of.

Help others.

◦ Volunteering in your community can help you make new friends and feel better about yourself.


Facial hair grows faster than any other hair on the body.





If you’ve ever had a covering of stubble on your face as you’re clocking out at 5 o’clock you’re probably pretty familiar with this.

In fact, if the average man never shaved his beard it would grow to over 30 feet during his lifetime, longer than a killer whale.


Nutrition, Fitness and

Weight



Bad: One in four Americans eats fast food at least once a day.

Friday, April 17, 2020 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/05/20/AR2008052001629.html

Nutrition, Fitness and Weight



BAD: Most cereals made for kids contain more calories, sugar and salt and less fiber and protein than other cereals. Most kids' cereals don't meet national school nutrition standards.





Good: Eat according to the colors of the rainbow. The more colors to your food -

- such as the reds, oranges, yellows, greens and even blues of fruits and vegetables -- the more important nutrients you'll get.





Good: Your brain depends on your stomach to signal that it's full, but that message takes 20 minutes to be delivered. So slow down during meals, and you'll be less likely to eat too much.







Bad: If you eat even 100 calories more a day than you burn by being active, that

"energy gap" could add 10 pounds a year.

How much is 100 calories? Half a glazed doughnut.





Good: Almost every day kids should have at least an hour of what the experts call moderate-intensity physical activity such as walking the dog (not slowly), riding your bike or dancing to your favorite songs.





Good: You usually feel happier after playing or exercising because of special chemicals called endorphins that your brain releases while you're moving.

Endorphins are a natural mood-booster!





Really bad: Fewer than 1 in 25 elementary schools and fewer than 1 in 13 middle schools in this country provide daily P.E. classes for all students. And many elementary schools have cut out recess.





Do better: States in New

England and out west have the most physically active residents; southern states have the most couch potatoes.



When the federal government measured this last year, Virginians were slightly more on the move than Marylanders.





Bad: One in three American kids and teens is overweight or heavy enough to be considered obese.
