2 Director s Report Brisk Walks Best for Health Benefits You probably know that walking is a good, low-impact way to get exercise. The benefits of moderate physical activity to general health and well-being are well known. If you ask 10 people what moderate means, and you are likely to get 10 different answers. As it turns out from recent research into exercise behavior, half of those who think they are working out at a moderate level are not; they are not reaching the moderate-level of activity as measured by the amount of oxygen they take in. Researcher Simon J. Marshall, PhD, of the School of Exercise and Nutritional Sciences, at San Diego State University says his study shows there is a good rule of thumb to help guide the public at least 100 steps in one minute on level ground is what s needed to reach moderate physical activity. Two simple tools are used to calculate the intensity of your walking workout: a pedometer and a wristwatch. The pedometer keeps track of the number of steps you take, and the watch keeps track of the time. Although widely used by walkers, pedometers cannot measure walking intensity. An otherwise healthy adult should aim for 150 minutes of moderate physical exercise every week. That breaks down to 30 minutes-a-day, or at least 3,000 steps per session, five days-a-week. While 100-steps-a-minute is a good target for healthy people, like those in the San Diego State University study, talk to your doctor before starting a new exercise program. It might be too strenuous for those just starting an exercise program or those with health conditions. 2
3 Healthcare Corner What exactly is a biometric screening? What do the numbers really mean? A biometric screening is an easy-to-perform health check that can identify problems in your cardiovascular and nervous system. This test allows you to work with a physician on any conditions that require attention. Likewise, a biometric screening gives you a green light when and where your numbers are good. They give you a quick, accurate picture of your health and starting point, from which you can measure your progress. Biometric screenings are a vital part of your health assessment that should become a part of your overall health management program. This screening is comprised of five important numbers. Blood Pressure: This is a report card on your heart s performance and an indicator of the condition of your arteries. Your reading will consist of two numbers; systolic and diastolic. Both are important. Cholesterol: Your cholesterol reading will have three numbers: LDL (bad cholesterol), HDL (good cholesterol), and total cholesterol the combination of LDL and HDL and other lipid components. Triglyceride: Your triglyceride number measures the chemical form in which fat exists in your body. A high triglyceride level has been linked to higher risk of coronary artery disease; a desirable triglyceride number is 150 or lower. Glucose: You need to know how much glucose an important and necessary source of energy is in your blood. This number is important for detection of diabetes and other treatable medical conditions. Body Mass Index: Also known as BMI, this number is calculated from a person s weight and height. It s a reliable indicator of body fatness and can alert you to conditions that may lead to health problems. As a member of the NALC Health Benefit Plan, these biometric screenings are available to you at no cost as part of your Preventive Care, Adult benefit when you use a PPO provider to perform your covered lab services. You will have no out-of-pocket expense and you will not have to file a claim. Call NALC (6252) or visit to locate a PPO provider. 3
4 Wellness Autism: What You Need to Know Understanding the Condition to Help Your Children Do you have a child who you feel isn t developing normally, especially with communication and social skills? Or a child who seems to have developed fine, then started to regress before age three? Most parents already have a sense that something is different before they get a diagnosis of autism for their child. And the reaction when they hear the diagnosis is often one of helplessness, guilt, anger or depression. Or a thought of What did we do wrong? The first thing to do is to learn more, then focus on early treatment, along with support for your other children. What is Autism? Autism is the best known of the pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs), a group of conditions that involve delayed or impaired communication and social skills, behaviors, and learning. Other PDDs include Asperger s syndrome, child disintegrative disorder and Rett s syndrome. Together, the PDDs are known as autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Children who display symptoms of Autism should be evaluated by a doctor. No blood tests or brain tests (such as MRIs) can diagnose ASDs, although such tests might be done to check for other conditions that could cause the symptoms. Doctors may use questionnaires, educational and cognitive assessments, language assessments, or play and behavior assessments to help diagnose autism. What Causes Autism? Causes of autism are not yet well understood. Scientists believe they re complex brain biology problems, which might have a genetic basis like other conditions stemming from abnormalities in the chromosomes. Some studies have suggested that autism results from a host of causes, including food allergies, excessive amounts of yeast in the digestive tract, and exposure to environmental toxins. However, these theories aren t scientifically proven. The vast majority of scientific studies have found no link between vaccines and autism. It s also important to remember that autism is not caused by parenting or bad experiences. Helping Your Child There is no cure for autism; however, getting help early can make a big difference in how well your child builds skills and achieves self-sufficienc. Treatment should be personalized because every child has different needs, and symptoms can range from mild to severe. 4
5 For most children, the first e forts at treatment focus on communication problems, using speech and language therapy, with special attention to nonverbal communication. Individually tailored programs may include behavior modification, and educational interventions can help shape a child s behaviors and improve speech and communication. Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA therapy) uses positive reinforcement and other principles to build communication, play, social, academic, self-care, work, and community living skills, as well as reduce behavioral problem behaviors. Medications may also be used to treat symptoms. Special diets and remedies may be promising, but have not been scientifically proven, so check with your child s doctor before you try one. Education Is Key Under federal law, autistic children are entitled to an education specific to their needs, and some states and local authorities provide services that go beyond this federal mandate. Here are some examples of programs you can check: Free preschool services starting at age three are available under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). These might be offered by your local school district, Intermediate Unit, or organizations such as Easter Seals and United Cerebral Palsy (UCP). Early intervention programs for children up to age three are also available through your state through IDEA. Once your child is of school age, your local school district can set up an individualized education plan (IEP) tailored specifically for your child. It s a good idea to work closely with your child s teachers to find out what rewards and behavior modification techniques help in th classroom, then use some of these at home for a consistent message. Some children may need more help if their symptoms are severe and they have difficult behavioral problems. These can include disability assistance through Social Security, special services through medical centers and physicians, and support services such as speech therapy. Watch for these early signs of autism Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms can range from severe to subtle. Here are a few to look for before age three. Trouble playing with or relating to others Avoiding eye contact Not pointing to objects to call attention to them Unusual movements, such as hand flapping, spinning or tappin Delays in developmental milestones or loss of milestones already achieved Playing with the same toy in a way that seems odd or repetitive Not using or understanding language Not exploring surroundings with curiosity or interest 5
6 If your child is older, additional signs include: being distracted by sensory input, going into a rage because of the texture or fit of clothing, and becoming terrified by certain sound Siblings Need Support Too! A child with autism affects the entire family. Brothers and sisters can feel resentful of the attention spent on the child with autism. They may be embarrassed by their sibling s behavior or worry that they may develop the symptoms. It s important to focus on your other children at the same time you re working to help your child with autism. When siblings are included, they can be helpful and develop nurturing skills. Provide siblings with information about ASD and what to expect with their sibling s behavior and development. Let them know how they can help. This will give them more positive feelings toward the situation and toward their sibling. Schedule time with siblings as well as with your child with autism. They need to know that they re still important to you. Give siblings time off from any extra responsibilities they ve been asked to take on. Consider a support group, that can help siblings cope with a sister or brother with ASD. 6
