Editor’s note Ah, we’re coming upon my favorite time of year – the fall. There’s nothing quite like that cool air, the smell of pumpkin pie, and the adventure of corn mazes. For me it’s the best time of the year – I feel most alive during the fall months.

As we come upon this colorful season, we’re bound to run into situations where we need our local businesses’ services. In this issue we feature several local businesses and highlight the goods and services they provide.

Supporting local business is very important.

Stress-freeways to serve after- school

cium, potassium and dietary fiber, according to the American Dietetic Association.

And over the past decade, children’s eating patterns have been markedly low in vitamins A, C and E. Most moms know that if left to their own devices, children will almost always go for sweet indulgences first.

In fact, cookies are the No. 1 snack item eaten by kids today.

So, can moms reward kids after a tough day at school with treats they’ll actually want to eat while fueling healthy development?

The answer is yes. And it helps to plan ahead. Here are some helpful tips that can have a positive impact on kids’ after-school snack choices.

nutritious

snacks

After a long day at the chalkboard and on the playground, kids can come home from school hungry and ready for an afterschool snack.

Studies show that children snack an average of three times a day, but they still aren’t getting adequate levels of vitamins and minerals. The challenge for parents is to find a treat kids will want to eat that’s not filled with empty calories.

Kids’ diets are low in vitamin D, cal-

Make nutritious treats accessible Having snacks at their fingertips helps encourage kids to make better choices.

For example, when you come home from the grocery store, use sandwich bags to prepack single servings of things like grapes, cheese, crackers and carrots to make them easy to grab and go in an instant.

For a sweet alternative, make your own trail mix using their favorite cereal, chocolate chips, mini marshmallows or peanuts.

There’s help at Living With Motion Chiropractic The rate of allergy sufferers has been on the rise in the last 10 years, especially in children.

Children react differently to substances, which might include milk, eggs, wheat, peanuts, pollen, dust, animal dander or even environmental chemicals, to name a few.

This can trigger a nervous system stress response that may show up as coughing, sneezing, itchy eyes, rashes, nonattentiveness, irritability, re-occurring colds, stomach discomfort, and so on.

When chronic, it’s called allergies, asthma, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, eczema, psoriasis, and even contribute to ADD/ADHD and autism.

When it’s time to get the help you need for painful joints One of the most difficult situations in which you need to make the “home care vs. professional care” decision may be when something affects your joints.

The joints do some important work for the human body, and figuring out when things will get better on their own and when you may have a more serious problem is not easy.

When to seek help William Ungureit, clinical director of the physician assistant training program at South University in Tampa, Fla., says there are some important signs that will tell you when to seek professional care.

“If the joint is warm to the touch and swollen, seek immediate help,” Ungureit says. “Those are signs of a possible infection, something that won’t get better on its own.”

Likewise, if you know that the

joint pain is the result of an injury such as a fall, put an ice pack on the injury and seek help right away.

“Cold therapy (ice) can be used for chronic injuries, such as pain after running,” says Ungureit. “Heat therapy is recommended for injuries that have no inflammation or swelling.

Heat is ideal for sore, stiff, nagging muscle or joint pain.”

If you decide to treat the pain at home, you still need to see your primary care physician if the pain lasts more than two weeks.

Chronic joint pain Treatment for chronic joint pain may be more involved, Ungureit says.

“Non-inflammatory joint pain usually signifies osteoarthritis, which is caused by trauma to the joint or degeneration of the joint tissue in weight-bearing joints.”

That means the knee, hip and spinal joints.

According to the U.S. Bone and Joint Initiative, a movement sanctioned by the World Health Organization, one in five Americans has some form of arthritis.

There is no cure for osteoarthritis, but it can be managed with pain killers, physical therapy, steroid injections such as cortisone, or other injections to help lubricate the joint.

As a last resort, surgery to realign or completely replace a joint may be an option. Complete joint replacement is now available for the knee, shoulder, hip and ankle.

Motion is lotion Although you can’t prevent osteoarthritis, you can do things to help lessen its onset and its painful effects.

“Losing weight and exercising

regularly are great ways to combat osteoarthritis,” says Ungureit.

“When it comes to joints, we say that ‘motion is lotion.’

Dropping five or 10 pounds may not seem like much, but five pounds per step adds up fairly quickly on your joints.”

What about herbal supplements and other alternative treatments for joint pain? Ungureit says there’s nothing wrong with trying them, but make sure you tell your doctor which ones you are thinking about taking, since some supplements can interfere with other medications.

So while you may not need to consult your doctor for every ache, there are some serious signs to look for, and some effective steps that both you and your doctor can take to help relieve those painful joints.

Cedar Village offers hospice care The word “hospice” is one that is not always fully understood.

In fact, people equate “hospice” with imminent death.

Not only is that not the case, but by labeling hospice in this way, people may be denied a level of care that can significantly improve their lives.

Hospice is not a new concept. It has been around since the Middle Ages, when it was a place for weary travelers to rest.

Later, hospices became havens for the terminally ill, first developing in Ireland at the end of the 19th Century.

The first modern hospice opened in London in 1967 and the hospice movement spread to the United States in the years following, finally becoming a Medicare benefit in the early 1980s.

Since that time, hospice programs have grown around the country and around the world, offering improved care and

services to individuals and their families.

Hospice is not just for those in the last hours and weeks of life. Hospice care is for anyone with a diagnosis of six months or less to live and who are receiving palliative (comfort) care rather than curative services.

With hospice, a team is available 24/7 to provide enhanced care, including pain control as well as medical supplies and equipment.

With physicians, nurses, aides, chaplains, social workers, therapist and volunteers as part of the hospice staff, the patient and their family receive optimal care and support.

In fact, studies show that patients who have hospice care actually live longer than those who do not. And, support for the family continues for a year following the death, to assist during the grieving process.

Cedar Village made the decision to begin its own

hospice program almost two years ago.

After intense planning and preparation, Cedar Village Hospice received full licensure and Medicare certification in May 2011.

For those who live at Cedar Village, whether in independent or assisted living or within the nursing home, hospice care is available at their bedside, keeping the individual where they want to be – in their home. As a community hospice, Cedar Village Hospice is also available to anyone in the greater Cincinnati community in their own home.

With the unique blend of Cedar Village’s expertise and focus on quality, Cedar Village Hospice offers an alternative for end of life services in our area.

For more information or a no-obligation assessment, call Cedar Village Hospice at 754-3100.

Come to Lobsta Bakes of Maine in Newtown Lobsta Bakes of Maine, retail purveyor of fresh daily deliveries of fish and shellfish, has been open at its current location in Newtown for two and a half years and word is spreading about the excellent quality of its seafood (delivered fresh, never frozen, daily), reasonable prices, and friendly, knowledgeable staff.

Owner Kevin Smith eschews the large and impersonal “megamart” atmosphere for homey and seasonal.

Cincinnatians in the loop know how lucky they are to have such fresh, nutritious seafood available year-round in their midst.

Kevin is a Maine native and third-generation com-

mercial fisherman who sets the tone in this pleasant shop, with his goodnatured, Down East demeanor, and customers sense this upon entering the charming, century-old renovated farmhouse.

Even the finickiest eaters find something they love to eat at this part seafood market, part gourmet deli.

Lobsta Bakes of Maine is a place where shoppers are welcome to gather, talk food, get cooking advice, and pick something up to make a delicious meal for friends and family.

People may be unaware that most fish is seasonal or quota-managed and influenced by

the vagaries of Mother Nature.

Therefore it’s a good idea to acquaint themselves with a variety of seafood new to them so when one fish isn’t available they’re prepared to enjoy another.

Autumn signals the close of wild Pacific Salmon season as well as the start of football, extracurricular activities, and tailgating. Along with Lobsta Bakes’ signature smoked seafood sausages, shrimp burgers, clam chowder and quiches, lobsters are a fantastic treat and easy to grill.

Shrimp is another yummy morsel simply served as scampi, stir-fry, or chilled with cocktail sauce.
