1 June 2017 Volume 133, Issue 133 Service Coordinator s Healthy Lifestyle Newsletter 4 Tips for Staying Hydrated By Leah Greenbaum of The Lifescript Staff Keeping your body hydrated is crucial, especially in the summer. As a bonus, drinking at least 8 eight-ounce glasses of water a day actually speeds metabolic rates, which aids in weight loss, according to a study published by the German magazine Men's Health. If you re not much of a water drinker, here are a few tips for getting your daily dose without even noticing. 1. Make popsicles. You can use lightly flavored water like Propel or Vitamin Water, or go for full-fledged fruity popsicles. This Cantaloupe Ice Pop recipe from Eating Well will keep you blissfully hydrated. (See Attached) 2. Dress your water. We decorate cocktails with funky straws and umbrellas, so why not water? Place a piece of strawberry or lemon into each compartment of an ice tray and freeze...viola! 3. Crush or shave your ice. On a hot day a cup of crushed ice will be a refreshing treat. 4. Invest in a reusable water bottle. An eco-friendly water container will save you money that would've otherwise gone to potentially harmful plastic bottles. Make sure it s easy to drink out of, otherwise you won't use it as often. Mornings are better when you talk to God first..

Health& Wellness - Dry Mouth www. What Is Dry Mouth? Dry mouth is the feeling that there is not enough saliva in the mouth. Everyone has dry mouth once in a while if they are nervous, upset, under stress, or taking certain medications. But if you have dry mouth most of the time, see a dentist or physician. Many older adults have dry mouth, but it is not a normal part of aging. Why Saliva is Important Saliva does more than keep your mouth wet. It protects teeth from decay, helps heal sores in your mouth, and prevents infection by controlling bacteria, viruses, and fungi in the mouth Salvia helps digest food and helps us chew and swallow. Saliva is involved in taste perception as well. Each of these functions of saliva is hampered when a person has dry mouth. How Dry Mouth Feels Dry mouth can be uncomfortable. Some people notice a sticky, dry feeling in the mouth. Others notice a burning feeling or difficulty while eating. The throat may feel dry, too, making swallowing difficult and choking common. Also, people with dry mouth may get mouth sores, cracked lips, and a dry, rough tongue. Treatment for Dry Mouth Dry mouth treatment will depend on what is causing the problem. If you think you have dry mouth, see your dentist or physician. He or she can help to determine what is causing your dry mouth. If your dry mouth is caused by medicine, your physician might change your medicine or adjust the dosage.
