Always practice summer sun safety
When the weather is warm, many people take time to relax at the beach or poolside. While such relaxation can provide a welcome break from busy schedules, it’s important that men, women and children prioritize protecting their skin when spending time in the sun.
According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, basal cell carcinoma, or BCC, is the most common form of skin cancer. The American Cancer Society notes that each year there are more new cases of skin cancer in the United States than the combined incidences of cancers of the breast, prostate, lung and colon. Despite that prevalence, many people still engage in risky behaviors in the name of outdoor enjoyment. Being safe in the sun won’t take anything away from enjoyable outdoor activities, but exercising such caution will help summer revelers reduce their risk for skin cancer and other conditions.
Using Supplements To Lower Heart Risk Isn’t Backed By Evidence
DEAR DR. ROACH: I recently had a CT scan, and my score was 184. My cardiologist put me on 40 mg of Lipitor, which I reluctantly took for three weeks until I developed severe pain in my feet and hands. I stopped taking it, and the pain went away.
I’m a 64-year-old male in excellent shape.I’m currently taking a chelation supplement, vitamin K2 (MK-7), and red rice yeast with CoQ10. Do you have any suggestions for the treatment of my issue? -- A.D.
Q. A.
ANSWER: I’m sorry to say that I disagree with all of your choices. Lipitor is a reasonable choice for the prevention of heart attacks and strokes in a person at an increased risk, such as a 64-year-old man with a coronary calcium score of 184. (I can’t give a better assessment of your risk without knowing a lot more about you, such as your blood pressure and cholesterol.)
Muscle aches are not uncommon with statin drugs like Lipitor, but research has shown that in most people with muscle or joint aches who take statins, the medication is not the underlying cause. (In one study where a person didn’t know whether they were taking a statin, the symptoms disappeared. In another, a person who changed from a statin to a placebo every two months was very likely to have no more pain on the placebo than they would on the statin.)
Nonetheless, there are other statins that might not cause pain, as well as alternatives like ezetimibe and bempedoic acid, which do not increase the risk of muscle aches and have been proven to reduce heart risk.
A recent large trial on chelation using powerful intravenous infusions did not show any improvement in hospitalizations for heart disease, heart attack, stroke or death compared to a placebo. I don’t recommend an unregulated oral supplement.
Although people who take menaquinone-7 (also called vitamin K2) have a lower heart disease risk than those who don’t, a randomized trial to prevent calcification of the aortic valve found no benefit. I did not find a trial showing that treating people with vitamin K2 led to a reduced heart risk.
Red yeast rice contains the same active ingredient as the statin drug lovastatin, but at such a low dose that cholesterol levels were not substantially lowered in a recent trial. CoQ10 has been repeatedly shown to be no better than a placebo at reducing statin side effects.
In addition to medication therapy, it’s important not to underestimate the effects of a healthy, plant-based diet and regular moderate exercise.
Build social skills by teaching kids to act cooperatively and make friends.
Develop confidence and feelings of competency through new experiences.
Increase healthy physical activity, active play and outdoor enjoyment.
Help kids unplug from screen time and reconnect with the world around them.
Foster independence by letting kids explore and make their own choices in a safe environment.
Here are some tips to follow from the American Camp Association before packing your bags for summer camp:
• Plan ahead by “test-driving” a day living out of a backpack or suitcase.
• Review your camp’s packing lists.
• Label all clothes and belongings with your child’s name.
• Break in any new shoes or hiking boots ahead of time.
ANXIOUS CAMPER?
• Let kids participate in choosing the camp and shopping for gear.
• Focus on fun things about camp kids can look forward to, and acknowledge any concerns they have.
• Plan a sleepover or two to ease the transition to a sleepaway camp.
• Avoid communicating your own anxiety about the separation, and keep goodbyes short and positive.
• Make a communication plan based on the camp’s guidelines.
• Help kids make realistic, goal-oriented plans for making friends or specific camp activities that concern them.
The Child Mind Institute offers these tips for helping anxious kids prep to enjoy summer camp:

POSTCARDS FROM PET CAMPERS
Families throughout Western NY enjoy camping in state parks like Letchworth, Hamlin Beach, and even at lakeside campgrounds along Conesus and Silver Lake. More and more are bringing pets along for the adventure! Dogs especially love hiking trails, sleeping in tents, and sneaking a hot dog if someone drops one by the fire. Before heading out, be sure your pet’s flea/tick protection is up to date and that their vaccinations are current and many campgrounds often require it. And don’t forget the dog bed, they’ve earned a spot by the campfire too.

Treating pet sunburns and heat injuries
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I took my German Shepherd “Maximilian” for a walk at lunchtime today. Since we got back, he’s been limping and whining. I don’t see any debris on his paws, but the pads on his front paws feel hot. Did he burn them somehow? -- Greg B., Tampa
DEAR GREG: From his symptoms, it’s very likely that he burned his pads on a hot sidewalk or street. You’ll need to treat them quickly; first aid is straightforward for this injury.
-- Fill a shallow bowl with cold (but not icy) water. Gently submerge your dog’s paws in the water -- you may need to do one at a time and give him treats throughout the process -- for 10 to 15 minutes. (If he doesn’t tolerate the water bowl at all, wrap each paw in a cool cloth instead.)
-- Wash his paws with cool, soapy water or disinfect carefully, and pat them dry immediately.
-- Put clean socks on his paws so he doesn’t lick them, and encourage him to rest.
Check Maximilian’s paw pads every few hours. If you see any sign of broken skin, blisters or infection, or if he is still limping tomorrow, take him to the vet for further evaluation and treatment.
Burnt pads can happen very quickly in the summertime, especially in southern states. Walk dogs in the early morningbeforesunriseorjustaftersunsettominimizethis risk, or keep them on the grass and away from pavement during the day.Booties provide some protection,but can’t always stop heat transfer to paws. After each walk, check their pads and wrap in a cool cloth for a few minutes, if they feel warm.

The numbers are shocking: Per the CDC,one in four seniors age 65 or older experience falls each year. That’s 25% of seniors. Of those, 37% suffer an injurythateitherkeepsthemfromtheirnormalactivitiesforatleastadayor that requires medical care.
Per the map accompanying that CDC article on falls, several states exceed that 25% average -- by a lot.
When it comes to deaths, falls are the number one cause of injury-related deaths among seniors,and the numbers are grim.
The reason for all the falls varies. We might have a physical condition that affects coordination. We might be taking a drug that causes dizziness. We might be wearing shoes that aren’t good for sturdy walking.

Get rid of small area rugs.

Dog Barking!
To the neighbor who very immaturely shouted out of their window when my dog was barking, “Dog barking!”, maybe next time you have an issue with my dog you can come to my door and discuss it with me. Let me be clear, there are at LEAST 10 dogs within the surrounding homes, all of them bark, that’s what dogs do sometimes. I do not leave my dogs outside for hours on end, let alone 24 hours a day/365 days a year like some people, and if they are enjoying the outdoors it’s within the lawful timeframe and isn’t violating curfew. And if they do seem to be barking excessively for whatever reason, I responsibly bring them back indoors. I have a hunch on a few of you it could’ve been. Depending on which one, with the amount of screaming, yard tools and recreational vehicles, or even your own dogs barking, you have some nerve. I don’t play about my dogs. You picked the wrong neighbor to shout at.
Second Opinions
Is this the new “norm?” Your Doctor advises a second opinion. You try to get one but unless you’re registered as their patient, they won’t even talk to you. Then they wonder why our health system is under such scrutiny.

Canandaigua Academy High School Junior Selected for the Prestigious Bezos Scholar Program
“I definitely hope to build myself as a person. I feel like I’ve been developing myself a lot and how I treat the people around me. I’m excited to go to Aspen to see the workshops and get all different perspectives and meet new people.”
– Lindsey LeTran
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. at was the mindset Canandaigua Academy Junior, Lindsey LeTran, embraced when her class advisor, Ashley Fisher, encouraged her to apply for the Bezos Scholar Program.
e moxie paid off and LeTran became one of 17 students selected as a 2025 Bezos Scholar. Twelve students from the United States and five from Africa comprise this year’s cohort, who participate in a yearlong leadership program that includes an all-expense trip to Aspen,Colorado,inJunetoattendtheAspenIdeasFestival. ere, they’ll engage with each other and with leaders and changemakers from around the country.
Fisher encouraged LeTran to apply for a number of reasons. “She’s obviously very smart and involved in a ton of things. She’s also super caring and puts others first. I just thought [LeTran] would be a perfect fit to represent our school,” she says. “I enjoy working with her because I know I can count on her. She always shows up.”
e selected scholars choose an educator to support them along the journey. LeTran, who nominated Fisher as her Educator Scholar, says they’ve already started meeting with the other scholars and educators through virtual sessions. As the trip to Colorado nears, she’s most excited to meet the other students and see “the faces I see as pixels online in person.”
She’s also looking forward to meeting and hearing leaders from across the country speak at the festival. With government officials, CEOs, journalists, professors, writers, artists, doctors, lawyers, and other industry leaders, she’ll
LINDSEY LETRAN AND ASHLEY FISHER
be able to learn from notables like Brené Brown, omas Friedman, and Sean Penn, to name a few.
A er the weeklong event, LeTran and Fisher will continue to Zoom meet twice a month. Each student is tasked with initiating a community change project they’ll lead in their senior year. Once LeTran’s ideas solidify, she’ll recruit a team of peers and community members.
“So, it’s a passion project where we find something in our community that we want to improve, and as the year goes on, we build on what we want to improve on.” In the winter of their senior year, each student will showcase their project and begin working on a grant proposal for $1,000 in seed funding to get the project off the ground.
Fisher explains that the program encourages the students to come up with their project idea a er the Ideas Festival, saying, “ e Ideas Fest is to get inspiration from all these brilliant people – and be open to new things.”
According to the Bezos Scholars website, the program looks for “curious young people who are rising leaders in their schools and communities.” e site details that these are students who have a strong work ethic, engage in their communities, and illustrate a commitment to learning. at’s LeTran.
As the social media coordinator for student government, vice president of the New York State Council on Leadership and Student Activities, member of the high school’s mental health organization, Work2BeWell, the class of 2026 representative on the School Improvement Planning Team, a participant in DECA, Key Club, unified basketball, and the school’s music program, an International Baccalaureate Diploma candidate, and a regular community volunteer, LeTran says, “I like to think I am as involved as you can get. I definitely think a good leader is someone who can be one with the people they’re leading. I see that in myself.”
From working in student government, to chatting up people at the grocery store, to her future aspirations in public health or government, she says she’s ready for what life brings her. “I definitely hope to build myself as a person. I feel like I’ve been developing myself a lot and how I treat the people around me. I’m excited to go to Aspen to see the workshops and get all different perspectives and meet new people.”
One of the main purposes of being a Bezos Scholar is to create an ongoing community initiative, and Fisher says that even a er LeTran graduates, Fisher and the team can request grants to continue funding LeTran’s project.
Fisher adds, “ e experience is obviously amazing for her, and I hope over the summer when we’re researching what our community needs, it’s something that continues and we’ll have it in 10 or 20 years, and I can say, ‘Oh, Lindsey started that,’ something she can leave behind that will impact our students in positive way.”
“She’s obviously very smart and involved in a ton of things. She’s also super caring and puts others first. I just thought [LeTran] would be a perfect fit to represent our school.”

WAYS TO INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY AT WORK
Write things down. A to-do list floating around in your head can become overwhelming. The physical task of writing things down and crossing items off the list one-by-one can help you sail through tasks effectively. If you’re a mobile person, jot the list down on the notes function of a smartphone or use a task app that syncs with calendar functions.
LEAVING A JOB GRACEFULLY
Train your replacement and prepare final assignments. Volunteer to train or assist with getting your replacement set up. If you have any outstanding projects or documents, be sure to tie up any loose ends before leaving. Leave behind instructions or a guidebook if you think it will help your replacement perform their duties more effectively.
