Make health a priority this spring Spring is a great time to carve out a little extra time to make health a priority.
Stick with it. Activity breeds activity…it’s called inertia. If you set your body in motion and stick with it, you’ll be well on your way to a healthier you. Commit to your fitness and health goals for a minimum of three months. This will help you establish healthy routines and set the stage for better health overall. Clean up your diet. You can spend all day in the gym or working out but if you aren’t mindful of what you are eating, you’re going to blow all that hard work. Reduce the amount of processed foods and high-glycemic carbohydrates you eat (breads, desserts, etc.) and focus on lean protein (fish, turkey, chicken, tofu), plenty of vegetables and other fiber-rich foods (beans, legumes, flaxseed), a little fruit, and healthy fats (avocados, extra-virgin olive oil). Start a food diary. Numerous studies have shown that people eat less when they record everything they eat on a daily basis. It can be a real eye-opener. There are several free online apps to make tracking what you eat easy. Exercise daily…without the gym. There are several ways to incorporate exercise and movement into your day, even if you never make it to the gym. Walk or ride a bike to and from work, take the stairs, park in the far corners of the lot at the store, do yardwork and household chores. The list of opportunities to be active is limitless. Just keep moving. Can the sodas and other sugary beverages. Say no to pop, fruit juices, sports drinks, and anything else that contains NEI 3A sugar or high fructose corn syrup. Instead, drink plenty of “Offering Nutrition, Activities, and Fellowship For water each day (at least eight, 8-ounce glasses). Tea and coffee are fine too; just make sure you aren’t loading them Your Emotional and Physical Health”... up with sugar or chemical sweeteners.
Whether that’s a 30-minute walk, or extra time to shop for and prepare a healthy meal … just do it. Here are some tips to a healthier lifestyle. Exercise with a buddy. Sticking with a consistent routine is easier if you find someone to do it with you. Enlist a spouse or neighbor or join a local gym for classes with like-minded people. You’ll be glad you did. Try something new. If you’re the type of person who gets bored with exercise, try incorporating new sports or activities into your weekly routine. Yoga, Zumba, gardening, cycling, swimming—anything out of the ordinary can help spice up your workout routine and keep it exciting. Set realistic goals. If you have a significant amount of weight to lose or have never set foot in a gym, losing 50 pounds and lifting weights or attending group fitness classes seven days a week are daunting resolutions. Instead, start smaller and work your way toward your goal, for instance try losing a pound or two per week or walking for 30 minutes every other day.

Walk to get fit! The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offer recommendations for exercising. At the very least, adults should engage in moderate aerobic activity for 150 minutes each week or vigorous physical activity for 75 minutes each week. Activities that strengthen muscles are also recommended at least two days per week. The easiest, cheapest option is to walk. For walking to count as exercise, the heart rate must be elevated. All you need is a decent pair of shoes to start on your way. Even if you only manage a 15-minute walk, you’ll get the minimum recommended. If you feel good at a brisk walk, you can try jogging at a slow pace and gradually increase the pace as you get fit.
Don’t skip meals It is important to eat three balanced meals every day. Don’t skip meals earlier in the day in attempt to “save” your calories for an indulgent lunch or dinner. Always eat breakfast within 60 to 90 minutes of waking up, and then have something to eat every 3 to 4 hours after that (stop with suppertime). Eating regular balanced meals throughout the day keeps your metabolism going and blood sugar stable. You will also be less likely to overindulge later on.

Tips to avoid feeling the burn! Doesn’t it feel great to be out in the summer sunshine? But the feeling you get when too much sunshine leads to sunburn - not so great. Fortunately, we know a lot more about preventing and treating sunburn than we used to. Use the following handy tips to keep your skin from seeing red. The best way to handle sunburn is to avoid getting it in the ďŹ rst place. Be smart when you go out in the sun. Wear long-sleeved shirts and broad-rimmed hats to protect your skin from the sun’s glare. Seek out shady places to relax and play, especially during the hours between 10 AM and 4 PM when the sun’s rays are strongest. Don’t assume a cloudy sky is the same thing as shade: Studies show that as much as 80 percent of the sun’s skindamaging ultraviolet rays can pass through clouds. Wear sunscreen. In general, medical professionals suggest using at least an SPF 15 sunscreen that blocks both ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) rays, and many dermatologists recommend sticking with one with SPF 30 or higher. Certainly, the very young and very old, whose skin tend to be more sensitive to sunlight, should use an SPF 30 sunscreen or higher. You need a good, thick coat that covers all exposed body parts, including frequently forgotten spots like the tips of the ears and the tops of your feet. (Don’t forget your lips! Lots of chapsticks contain sunscreen these days.) Re-apply it at least every two hours, more if you’re physically active, sweating or spending time in the water. Even sunscreens labeled “waterproofâ€? or “water-resistantâ€? can lose their eectiveness after 40 minutes of swimming. Always apply sunscreen before you go out into the sun. Remember, by the time you feel sunburned, it’s too late.

The month of May is dedicated to the incredible, edible egg - nature's own miracle food! One large egg has 70 calories, 6 grams of protein and provides 13 vitamins and many minerals that contribute to good health. Eggs contain the highest quality of protein found in any food, along with essential amino acids our bodies need. In fact, the quality of egg protein is so high that scientists frequently use eggs as the standard for measuring the protein quality of other foods! Protein is an important component to building muscle, maintaining muscle and keeping us feeling full and satisďŹ ed longer. Not only do eggs contain the highest quality protein, but they are an aordable source of protein! Egg whites supply a little more than half an egg's protein. But don't forget the yolks - the nutritious gold mine! The yolks contain Vitamin A, riboavin, and folate, which contribute to eye health and brain function. Lutein and zeaxanthin are also found in the yolk, and they protect against macular degeneration and cataracts. Choline stimulates brain development and function. Eggs play an important role for pregnant women, especially. An entire egg provides a large amount of B vitamins - nutrients that are key to contributing to healthy brain and nervous system development in babies. Celebrate May egg month by adding an egg, or TWO to your daily diet!

Bite back against mosquitoes this season with these prevention tips Salad … a health food?
The News & The Guide
Into ... Health & Wellness!
Salads aren’t automatically a healthy or low-calorie choice. To figure out how yours ranks, start by taking an inventory of what you’ve put in your bowl: what kinds of toppings, how much dressing, and how big is it? A good rule to follow when eating a salad is to stick to nutritious greens, like spinach, romaine, arugula, kale or mesclun. Pile on unlimited veggies, but avoid starchy peas and corn. Watch extras such as cheese, nuts, seeds, crunchy things (like wontons, noodles, croutons, bacon bits) and dried fruits (raisins, craisins). Choose a lean protein, like grilled chicken, shrimp, turkey, tofu, eggs, or salmon, and avoid fried, breaded, and processed meats. Try to get dressings on the side and stick to two tablespoons or less.
From annoying itchy welts to serious conditions like Malaria and West Nile virus, mosquitoes have been making humans miserable and sick for thousands of years. Now, there is Zika - a mosquito-spread virus that may be linked to serious birth defects. In fact, according to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the diseases mosquitoes spread make them the deadliest animal on the planet. The arrival of warm weather means it is time to step up your mosquito prevention and protection efforts in order to help protect your family. The National Pest Management Association offers some information that can help: *The type of mosquito that transmits Zika bites during the daytime hours. Most other types of mosquitoes bite during dusk and dawn. *Within the U.S., mosquitoes have been known to spread West Nile virus, Chikungunya, and encephalitis-causing viruses in humans, and heartworms in dogs. *Mosquitoes spread disease when they bite one person, fly to another and bite again, spreading the infection. What many people do not realize is that the saliva from the mosquito's bite causes the red, itchy irritation that we all know so well. These tips can help reduce your exposure to mosquitoes: *Eliminate breeding areas - Mosquitoes need only about a half-inch of standing water in which to lay their eggs. Get rid of any stagnant water around your home, such as flower pots, bird baths, kiddie pools and standing water in low areas of your yard. *Use repellent - Whenever you spend time outside, protect your skin from mosquito bites by applying an insect repellent that contains at least 20 percent DEET, picaridin or oil of lemoneucalyptus. Also, consider wearing long pants, long-sleeved shirts and closed-toe shoes. *Be aware of the time of day - Mosquitoes are most active around dawn and dusk, although the variety that transmits Zika prefers to bite during the day. Minimize outside activity during peak biting hours, or, if you must be outside, wear long sleeves, pants and repellent to thwart mosquitoes. *Watch what you wear - Dark colors, floral prints and sweet-smelling perfumes or colognes can attract mosquitoes to you. Wear light colors and forego perfume when spending time outside. *Protect your house - Screens help keep mosquitoes out of your house. Be sure all windows and doors are outfitted with screens, and that all are in good shape. Repair tears to keep mosquitoes from getting inside. *Travel wisely - Mosquito-borne diseases that may be rare in the U.S. are common in many foreign countries, so if your summer vacation will take you outside the country, check what travel advisories may be in effect in your destination. If someone gets sick upon returning home, seek medical care immediately.

Understand your oral health needs Talk with your dentist, other oral health care specialist, or hygienist about any special conditions in your mouth and any ways in which your medical/health conditions aect your teeth or oral health. For example, cancer treatments, pregnancy, heart diseases, diabetes, dental appliances (dentures, braces) can all impact your oral health and may necessitate a change in the care of your mouth and/or teeth. Be sure to tell your dentist if you have experienced a change in your general health or in any medications you are taking since your last dental visit. Based on discussions with your oral health care provider about health conditions you may have, develop an oral health routine that is easy to follow on a daily basis. For example, people with special conditions, including pregnancy and diabetes, may require additional instruction and perhaps treatments to keep their mouth healthy. Make sure you understand the additional care and/or treatment that is needed, commit to the extra tasks, and work them into your daily health routine. Children and adults may beneďŹ t from uoride use. Fluoride strengthens developing teeth in children and prevents tooth decay. Toothpastes and mouth rinses contain uoride. Fluoride levels in tap water may not be high enough without supplementation to prevent tooth decay. Talk with your dentist about your uoride needs and ask if uoride supplements are necessary. Brush your teeth at least twice a day (morning and before bed) and oss at least once a day. Better still, brush after every meal and snack. These activities remove plaque, which if not removed, combines with sugars to form acids that lead to tooth decay. Bacterial plaque also causes gum disease and other periodontal diseases. Antibacterial mouth rinses also reduce bacteria that cause plaque and gum disease, and uoride mouth rinse can help prevent tooth decay. Other tips: -Eat a balanced diet and limit sweets. -If you use tobacco products, quit! -Visit your dentist twice a year for checkups and cleanings.

Red and puffy eyes? It could be allergies Have allergies turned your eyes red and puffy? You're not alone -- millions of Americans deal with the condition, also called allergic conjunctivitis. A cold compress can give you a quick fix before heading out in public. But for longterm relief, you need to know your triggers and treat the symptoms. Symptoms include redness in the white of your eye or inner eyelid. Other warning signs: itching, tearing, blurred vision, a burning sensation, swollen eyelids, and sensitivity to light. Eye allergies can happen alone or with nasal allergies and an allergic skin condition called eczema. The only way to know for sure if it's an allergy is to see your eye doctor who can recommend the best treatment.

2015 Water Quality Report For Winthrop Water Supply This report contains important information regarding the water quality in our water system. The
Hours: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mon. thru Fri. 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday
source of our water is groundwater. Our water quality testing shows the following results (see chart below): Note: Contaminants with dates indicate results from the most recent testing done in accordance with regulations. DEFINITIONS • Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible
using the best available treatment technology. • Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) - The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. • ppb - parts per billion. • ppm - parts per million. • pCi/L - picocuries per liter • N/A - Not applicable • ND - Not detected
• RAA - Running Annual Average • LRAA Locational Annual Average •Treatment Technique (TT) - A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water. •Action Level (AL) The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. •Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) - The level
of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants. •Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) - The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants. •SGL - Single Sample Result •TCR - Total Coliform Rule GENERAL INFORMATION Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water posed a health risk. More information about contaminants or potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-4264791). Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing c h e m o t h e r a p y, persons who have undergone organ
transplants, people with HIV-AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791). If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. WINTHROP WATER SUPPLY is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http:// www.epa.gov/safewater/lead SOURCE WATER ASSESSMENT INFORMATION CONTACT INFORMATION For questions regarding this information or how you can get involved in decisions regarding the water system, please contact WINTHROP WATER SUPPLY AT 319-935-3317.

Get fit for summer!
Here are some tips for getting into shape this summer: 1. Make a plan. This is a very important step if you want to be successful in your quest to get into shape. Take time to research a diet and exercise plan that best suits your lifestyle. Set specific goals with timelines. 2. Stick to the plan. This is the toughest part, but once you get through the first few days, it gets easier as your body adjusts and your brain remembers the new routine. 3. Incorporate aerobic and body-weight exercises. When you begin your fitness journey, incorporate aerobic exercise right away. Aim for 30 minutes a day of walking, running or biking, etc. After a week or two, add body-weight exercises such as push-ups, sit-ups, lunges and squats.

Go for the Greens! You have the green light to put more leafy green vegetables on your plate! These plant items can greatly improve your health. They are low in calories and are loaded with fiber, vitamins and minerals. They may also help protect you from chronic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. Spring and summer are a great time of year to load up on these tasty foods! Because they are in season, they will have fantastic flavor and are also likely a little more cost-friendly. What are your choices? If your concept of “leafy greens” consists only of iceberg lettuce, try broadening your horizons with some options that are more nutrient-dense. Although it is consumer’s most popular choice, iceberg lettuce is made up of mostly water and has limited nutritional value. Try kale! Kale is a form of cabbage and can be green to purple in color. It provides an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin K, and beta carotene. Follow the spinach craze! It is packed with vitamins and minerals, yet has only 20 calories per serving. Try it raw in salads or cooked in a soup or side dish.
4. Learn from your mistakes. As you continue your fitness journey, you will figure out what works and what doesn’t. For instance, if you indulge in an extra glass of wine, or skip exercise, does the scale go back up? 5. Lift weights. Once your body adjusts to aerobic and body-weight exercises, add lifting weights to your routine twice a week. Start out with 5-lb. weights or use a stretch band. There are many DVDs that can guide your efforts. 6. Don’t give up. It is normal to backslide; however, you have come too far to give it all up because you skipped exercise for a day or ate a bowl of ice cream! Give yourself a pep talk, review your plan and make changes if needed, and keep going!

Don’t forget your helmet
Bike helmets are essential for preventing head injuries during an accident or fall. There are many brands available. Not all are constructed well or approved by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) or the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). When shopping, look for a quality helmet with the safety seal of the CPSC or ANSI. Try on every helmet of interest and make sure it ďŹ ts comfortably. The helmet should be snug, allowing for very little movement all around. It should rest at on your head and cover the top of your forehead. The straps should help keep the helmet in place and form a V shape under your ears. If the helmet tilts in any way, you may need a smaller size. For visibility, white or bright-colored helmets are best. Some brands also come with headlights for optimum visibility. Just make sure whatever helmet you select does not impede your vision. A quality helmet is a must for bike riding, but it will do you little good if you don’t wear it. Set an example for your kids and strap it on for every excursion, even if you are just going for a short ride around the block. Check that the straps are below your chin, not to the side. Teach your kids how to wear their helmets, insist they use them and encourage them not to play with their helmets on. The straps can pose a choking hazard on the playground. You may have never had a bike accident, but doesn’t mean you won’t. Just one little slip on a patch of wet pavement or a rocky path can lead to a crash, which can result in a head injury if you aren’t wearing a helmet. Buy a bike helmet, use it properly, and it could just save your life!

Physical therapy is a type of treatment you may need when health problems make it hard to move around and do everyday tasks. It helps you move better and may relieve pain. It also helps improve or restore your physical function and your ďŹ tness level. The goal of physical therapy is to make daily tasks and activities easier. For example, it may help with walking, going up stairs, or getting in and out of bed. Physical therapy can help with recovery after some surgeries. Your doctor may suggest physical therapy for injuries or long-term health problems such as arthritis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Physical therapy may be used alone or with other treatments. What does a physical therapist do? Your physical therapist will examine you and talk to you about your symptoms and your daily activity. He or she will then work with you on a treatment plan. The goals are to help your joints move better and to restore or increase your exibility, strength, endurance, coordination, and/or balance. Check with your doctor about the beneďŹ ts of physical therapy.

Calorie tracking ‌ knowledge is power Weight maintenance and weight loss are based on the dierence in the calories you take in and the calories you expend each day. For many people, understanding what they eat and where their calories come from is the ďŹ rst step leading to better nutrition and a healthier lifestyle. For packaged goods, use the information provided on the box. There are very good websites available which can help you ďŹ nd out the caloric value of whatever meal you are putting together at home. The added beneďŹ t of looking things up is that you will be able to see which foods have a higher value than others. Proper record keeping is essential. You can create a spreadsheet or just keep track on a notebook, noting how many calories you consume each day. Better yet, use a free online tool to track calories and exercise. It is easy, quick, and can be done on a computer, smart phone and other devices. The amount of calories you use every day will change based on age, gender, physical activity level and weight. A pound of body fat has 3,500 calories, which means that, if you are expending 500 more calories each day than you are taking in, you’ll lose about one pound per week. To put it in perspective, the Food and Drug Administration recommends men take in 2,000–2,500 calories daily, and women, 1,500–2,000 calories daily. Of course, you don’t want to be counting calories for the rest of your life, so give yourself a goal of counting every day for two weeks. This will give you a wide enough sample to see some general trends without overburdening you. You can try to make small changes in your dietary habits and then, after a few months, count calories again for a couple of weeks to see if there are signiďŹ cant dierences. Five hundred calories per day isn’t that many, and even small changes can make a big change. Once you have your system down, it’s easy to keep track. If you eat the same meal regularly, you can quickly learn the values, and you’ll start to see healthier options as you learn more about the real caloric value of foods. Keep track of your calories and you can keep yourself on track to your weight maintenance goals.
It is your medical record: Make sure it is always about you
There is only one you. Sometimes your name or some of your personal information is so similar to someone else's that doctors' oďŹƒces or hospitals can have a hard time identifying your records correctly. It is a dangerous and costly problem that can lead to missed diagnoses, inappropriate treatments or unnecessary tests, as well as making it diďŹƒcult for your doctor to share information with your other health care providers. A solution? A patient identiďŹ er that makes sure your unique health records accurately represent you. That is why the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA), the national organization of health information management professionals, has started an online petition asking for a voluntary patient safety identiďŹ er. A voluntary patient safety identiďŹ er is something you could create and would allow medical systems to recognize you quickly and accurately when accessing your information. It will help ensure all your health information is kept together and is complete, all the while remaining under your control. The petition will encourage our leaders in the federal government to engage with experts in the private sector who have experience in accurately identifying people, as they do in banking and other ďŹ nancial businesses, along with security experts. With 80 percent of doctors and 97 percent of hospitals currently using an electronic health record, having a way to accurately and safely exchange information can make health care more safe and eective. The challenge of accurate patient identiďŹ cation is illustrated by a study conducted by the Harris County Hospital District in Houston, which found that, among 3.5 million patients, there were nearly 70,000 instances where two or more patients shared the same last name, ďŹ rst name and date of birth. Among these were 2,488 dierent patients named Maria Garcia and 231 of those shared the same birth date.
Treat yourself You treat yourself with healthy sweets such as fruit, frozen grapes, Greek yogurt with berries, or an apple with peanut butter. However, there are times when that won’t cut it. When your sweet tooth emerges, try to keep it to 150 calories, such as three squares of dark chocolate, a couple small cookies, or an individual chocolate pudding. Or choose a half cup of ice cream or sorbet, a baked apple, a fudgesicle, or even a small brownie. Sometimes, treating yourself, within limits, is the key to sticking to your diet!

Manchester Chamber Ambassadors make the rounds
Heartland Acres summer hours begin Memorial Day weekend
Submitted by Manchester Area Chamber of Commerce
The Manchester Area Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors made two visits recently. The first was to IsadoraBella’s Boutique & Gifts to meet and greet owner Teresa Thibadeau and her daughter, Baillie, who is the boutique’s manager. Teresa discussed buying trips to ensure the shop has up-to-date styles, colors, fabrics, and accessories. Although the store carries styles that will suit any age, it is tailored toward the 30-and-over age group. The boutique also carries other items, including salsas, caramel pretzels and popcorns. Teresa shared that the store is named after her poodle, “IsadoraBella.” Next, the Ambassadors visited HITECH Communications to meet Ron Pollard, Jeremy “JJ” DeMoss, Kory Wulfekuhle, and Gabrielle Corkery. HITECH Communications, a division of Price Electric, combined with Northeast Iowa Telephone Service last December. Wulfekuhle and Corkery joined the HITECH Team from NEITS. DeMoss is a Delaware County native and heads up the Manchester office, which continues to operate out of the lower level of the previous NEITS building. HITECH continues to offer the same services NEITS did and has added many additional services as well.

There is always something new to be seen at Heartland Acres. For 2016, explore “Transportation in Time,” with items ranging from a mid-1800s wooden sleigh to a 2005 solar-powered car on loan from Iowa State University. Additions have also been made to the “Ag in the Military” display through equipment donations from Ken Cerra of Ocala, FL. In the “Planting seeds for Tomorrow” display, see how mechanical innovations saved time and energy in the seeding process. Watch for a new exhibit – “Corn Country” – that is under construction.
