In September we celebrate Healthy Aging! What contributes to aging healthy you ask??

1) Physical activity the golden standard is 150 minutes per week, that’s just 30 minutes/day. You can do it!
2) A nutrient rich diet means we eat MORE of fruits & veggies, lean protein, whole grains, & healthy fats. Eating less sodium, added sugars, unhealthy fats.
3) Take care of your mental health! See a behavioral health specialist, properly manage stress, SAY NO (nicely), engage in meaningful interactions.
4) Stay connected, you’re not alone!
5) Preventive and routine checkups!

Heat exhaustion is a warning sign that your body can no longer keep itself cool. It’s caused by too much heat and dehydration and if not treated, may lead to heat stroke.

Heat stroke is a medical emergency 🚨 It refers to a very dangerous rise in body temperature of 104 and higher. It can be deadly.

If ANYONE experiences these symptoms they should seek medical help, immediately move to a cooler place and act to lower their body temperature.
