Seniors &

Exercise

Exercise is an important component of a healthy lifestyle. Daily exercise can improve mood, promote an active lifestyle and reduce a person's risk for a host of ailments, including diabetes and heart disease.

· Pick a partner. Whether it's a spouse or a friend who is physically active or wants to be, try exercising with a partner, at least initially. Doing so can provide the motivation you need and partners can serve as safety nets should you need assistance completing an exercise or suffer an injury and require medical attention. Personal trainers can serve as your partner, and many gyms offer discounts to seniors on personal training services.

Despite the importance of exercise, many people live sedentary lifestyles into their golden years. Seniors who want to embrace a healthier way of life and get more physically active should first consult with their physicians before beginning an exercise regimen. Certain medications may limit just how far seniors can push themselves, while preexisting conditions may make specific types of exercise off limits. After discussing their limitations with their physicians and developing a safe exercise routine, seniors can heed the following tips to avoid injury but still get healthy.

· Start slowly. Seniors who have not been physically active for some time should take a gradual approach to exercise. Instead of heading right for the treadmill, exercise bike or elliptical machine, start walking every day. When it rains, find a treadmill you can walk on. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons recommends seniors begin by

Tips to avoid injuries, get healthy determining how many steps they can take in a day and then gradually working toward 10,000 to 15,000 steps per day. Utilize step counting apps on your smartphone to track your progress. Apply the same slow approach to strength training exercises, lifting only very light weights at first before gradually increasing weight as your body acclimates to the exercises. · Stretch. Bodies that have been inactive for lengthy periods of time are inflexible, and lack of flexibility increases your risk for injury. The AAOS recommends that seniors warm up their bodies before stretching with five to 10 minutes of low-intensity activity such as walking. Then stretch gently, remembering to relax and breathe during each stretch.

· Switch things up. When strength training, do not work the same muscle group two days in a row. Muscles

need time to recover. If you prefer circuit strength training where you exercise various muscle groups in one day, do not strength train on

back-to-back days, leaving at least one day in between strength training sessions so muscles have ample time to recover.

DID YOU KNOW??? Heart disease can affect just about anyone. While it was once widely and mistakenly considered a man's disease, since 1984, more women than men have died each year from heart disease. According to the Harvard Medical School, heart disease is the leading cause of death in women over age 65, just as it's the leading killer of men. Myths abound with regard to heart disease and heart attack risk. One such myth that prevails is that a person who has heart

disease should avoid all exercise. However, cardiologists advise that physical activity can help to strengthen the heart, which will improve blood flow to the brain and internal organs. Those who want to exercise should speak with their doctors about which types of exercise are right for them. In the interim, begin with some lowintensity walking, as this is usually a safe, lowimpact way to improve personal health.

Health Understanding dementia a key to compassionate care

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the more prominent forms of dementia, but there are many additional types of dementia that also can cause both physical and cognitive alterations. Understanding the complexity of dementia can be beneficial to both dementia sufferers and their caregivers. Dementia is a general term used to define a decline in mental ability severe enough that it can interfere with daily life, offers the Alzheimer’s Association. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia. Dementia is not a disease but a term used to describe a wide range of symptoms. The words “senility” and “dementia” often are incorrectly used interchangeably. However, serious mental decline is not a normal part of aging. Dementia presents itself through various symptoms, and memory loss alone is not enough to lead to a dementia diagnosis. Dementia can affect thinking and social abilities, but the Mayo Clinic notes that some dementias may be reversible. The following are some common symptoms of dementia: • Trouble communicating or finding words.

• Difficulty completing complex tasks. • Challenges with planning and organization. • Episodes of confusion and disorientation. • Memory loss, which is often noticed by a third party. • Personality changes that can include agitation, anxiety, inappropriate behavior and even hallucinations. Apart from Alzheimer’s disease, which is a progressive disorder most common in people age 65 and older, there are other types of dementia. The second most common is called “vascular dementia.” This results from damage to vessels that supply blood to the brain. This damage can be the result of stroke, smoking and other blood vessel conditions. Brain imaging can often detect blood vessel problems implicated in vascular dementia. Dementia with Lewy bodies, or DLB, is another dementia that laymen may mistake for Alzheimer’s disease. The Alzheimer’s Association notes that people with DLB often have not only memory loss and cognitive problems common in Alzheimer’s, but they also display initial or early symptoms such as sleep disturbances, wellformed visual hallucinations, slowness, gait imbal-

ance or other Parkinsonian movement features, which can lead to misdiagnosis. If physicians suspect dementia was caused by various factors, a person may be diagnosed with mixed dementia. Unfortunately, there are no cures for progressive dementias that are linked to plaque tangles in the brain and changes in the way the brain processes the protein alpha-synuclein. Patience and various medications may be needed to help those with dementia live fuller lives. Cholinesterase inhibitors are mainstays in dementia treatment. These medications prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine, a chemical messenger important for learning and memory. Acetylcholine supports communication among nerve cells by keeping acetylcholine levels high. Physical therapy and cognitive therapy may be used in conjunction with medication to assist those with various dementias. Helping individuals with dementia remain comfortable is a priority for caregivers, and understanding the symptoms and treatments can help caregivers make patients and loved ones as comfortable as possible.

CONDENSED VERSUS EVAPORATED Dear Heloise: What is the difference between CONDENSED MILK AND EVAPORATED MILK? Can I use one in place of the other? -- Shirley in Fullerton, Calif. It can be confusing, but here's the scoop: Sweetened condensed milk is whole milk that has 60 percent of the water removed when heated and then has sugar added. It's used to make desserts and candies. Evaporated milk is whole milk that has 50 percent of the water removed and NO sugar added. It's usually added to sauces, puddings and custards. You CANNOT substitute condensed for evaporated milk, or vice versa. -Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 78279-5000 Fax: 210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise.com INDOOR GRILL Dear Heloise: We have an indoor, countertop electric grill with cooking plates that can't be taken off to clean. But I have found an easy way to clean it. Wipe it as much as possible with paper towels. Dip enough paper towels in hot, soapy water to thoroughly (and thickly) cover the bottom plate. Then dampen with vinegar. Close the lid and let sit for 20 to 30 minutes. After that, you should be able to wipe it off and rinse with a cloth. -- Sherrill S., Jacksonville, Texas Paper towels and vinegar are a great cleaning combination to keep in your home, especially for easy cleanup on items like an indoor grill that have a nonremovable part. I always keep plenty of

vinegar in my home and use it so much that I wrote a six-page pamphlet on ways to use and cook with it. Order one online at www.Heloise.com, or send $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Vinegar, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. For a stubborn ring around the toilet bowl, use the same paper-towel-and-vinegar method of cleaning. CAUTION: Be sure to remove the paper towels before flushing the toilet! -- Heloise DICING ONIONS Dear Heloise: I discovered several years ago that if I use a small fan beside me on the kitchen counter while dicing onions, I will not have one tear rolling down my cheek, or any stinging in my eyes. Yesterday, I diced six large onions, and even with that many onions, I was tear- and sting-free. The first time I did that, my husband was sitting "downwind" in the family room and he said: "What in the world are you doing up there? My eyes are burning." So, one may need to warn others who are sitting "downwind." -- Rita V., Gresham, Ore. FULL FREEZER Dear Heloise: I like to keep my freezers full. I think it conserves energy and takes longer for things to thaw out if the electricity goes out for an extended period of time. When I have free space in any freezer, I fill disposable containers (margarine, cottage cheese, etc.) four-fifths full of water, put the lid on and place them in the free space. I also keep an old pair of winter gloves by the stand-alone freezer for "freezer diving." -- Mary H., Arlington, Va. ©2016 by King Features Syndicate Inc.
