			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By Adriana N.</p>
<p>In the coming decades, as the baby boomers continue to enter into the retirement phase of their lives, the options for living as independently as possible have increased. In states like Arizona or Florida, adult communities have provided a snapshot of what aging looks like for seniors. While active and independent at age fifty-five, aging into one&#8217;s eighties and nineties often requires some assistance with daily living activities. Assisted living residences have evolved out of the desire to be as independent for as long as one can.</p>
<p>In the healthcare industry activities of daily living (ADLs), such as being able to drive, use the telephone, make meals, and maintain personal hygiene, are used as a measure of an adult&#8217;s ability to live independently. If a person needs help in one or more of these activities, choosing a home that provides this aid may be the answer.</p>
<p>A healthcare provider should conduct an evaluation of any limitations of daily activities. Knowing how much help an individual needs is the first step to finding the right residence. Some assisted living communities are set up to provide very basic services, like making meals, assisting with shopping needs, and providing help with transportation. Other communities will provide basic care at the start, yet have the ability to add services depending on a person&#8217;s future needs.</p>
<p>Once the level of care is known, the decision of where to locate will need to be addressed. Plan ahead, it can make the move easier for all involved. If the move will be to a new town or another part of the country, learn about the weather, the attractions, and other information to make the change easier. Locate a facility early in the decision process. Arrange help to pack and transport belongings. Engage family and friends to help in the transition.</p>
<p>When the location has been chosen, visit various facilities. Learn about the services that the care facility offers to make sure it can properly assist with current and future needs. Visiting the community will provide knowledge of the amenities available, how the staff interacts with the residents, and if the residents are happy and involved in activities.</p>
<p>Pay close attention to the staff&#8217;s interaction with the residents. Do the staff members take time to talk to the residents, and do they appear comfortable and genuine in these interactions? Find out the ratio of staff to seniors, is it adequate to handle the number of residents?</p>
<p>Check out the recreational schedule, does it provide a variety of events? Walk around the community to see if the residents are actively participating in different events and how well they like the community.</p>
<p>While moving can be hectic, with advanced planning and getting others involved, should provide for an easier transition. An assisted living residence can increase the social interaction of seniors, while providing the security of needed care. Scheduled events and arranged transportation can present new opportunities for the residents. Knowing that the level of help is available should calm any current or future fears.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By Frank Keller</p>
<p>During pregnancy your nutrition needs are going to increase. Even before becoming pregnant it is a good idea to make every effort to start eating healthy and taking a women&rsquo;s multivitamin. A prenatal multivitamin is a better choice during pregnancy. </p>
<p>Let&rsquo;s start with the recommended daily intake of food during pregnancy.</p>
<p><b>DURING PREGNANCY :</b></p>
<p><b>7 or more Fruits and Vegetables</b> (3 fruits/4 vegetables)<br />
<br />Fruits and Vegetables high in vitamin C are the best. These include strawberries, melons, oranges, papaya, tomatoes, peppers, greens, and broccoli.</p>
<p><b>9 or more Whole Grain Products</b><br />
<br />A fortified breakfast cereal containing iron and folic acid is the best way to start each day. Enriched bread, rice, pasta, and any whole grain product are your other choices.</p>
<p><b>4 or more dairy products</b><br />
<br />Low-fat milk or non-fat milk, yogurt, and cheese are the obvious choices. </p>
<p><b>60 grams of protein</b> (two or more 2-3 ounce portions of lean meat)<br />
<br />Other sources of protein include eggs, nuts, dried beans, and peas. <b><i>Do not eat undercooked or uncooked meat or fish. (NO SUSHI) Do not eat deli luncheon meats</i></b></p>
<p><b>PREGNANCY NUTRITION FACTS</b></p>
<p><b>Fish</b><br />
<br />Some fish are higher in mercury content than others. Mercury can cause problems with your growing baby&rsquo;s brain and nervous system. Fish to avoid completely: sharkswordfishking mackerelgolden snapper white snapper</p>
<p>Fish eating limitations: Limit your intake of fish to 12 ounces a weekLimit your intake of white tuna or tuna steak to 6 ounces a week Safest fish to eat:shrimpsalmoncatfish light tuna</p>
<p><b>Weight</b></p>
<p>Calorie intake should only be increased by 300 a day during pregnancy for the average woman.Weight gain should be around 28-40 pounds for women that are underweight at pregnancy.Women that are overweight at pregnancy should gain only 15-25 pounds.Weight gain should be around 2-4 pounds the first trimester and 3-4 pounds a month for the remaining time.Excess weight gain is hard to lose after pregnancy because your body&rsquo;s fat increases up to one third during pregnancy.Breast feeding burns 500 or more calories per day making it easier to lose weight.Consult your health care provider for your specific healthy weight gain.</p>
<p><b>Vitamins and Minerals</b></p>
<p>Check the RDA chart for your needs during pregnancy.</p>
<p><b>Folic Acid</b> is a special concern because a deficiency can lead to neural tube birth defects. Your multivitamin should contain 400 mcg of folic acid. Birth defects happen before you even know you&rsquo;re pregnant so always take a multivitamin with folic acid during child bearing age.</p>
<p><b>Vitamin C</b> taken in doses over 500 mg/d can lead to your baby being born dependent on large quantities of vitamin C.</p>
<p><b>Iron</b> is also of special concern because the average American diet does not provide enough iron during pregnancy. If your prenatal multivitamin does not contain enough iron your doctor will prescribe an additional supplement. Iron is needed for you and the baby to have healthy teeth, bones, and blood.</p>
<p><b>Water</b> is often overlooked during pregnancy but it is vital for you and your baby. It carries the nutrients from your body to the baby and it helps prevent constipation, hemorrhoids, swelling and urinary tract infection. A minimum of 6 eight ounce glasses a day is required. Juice can count toward your 6 glasses but be careful of the added calories. Any drink containing caffeine actually reduces the fluid in your body and cannot count towards your 6 glasses.</p>
<p><b>Calcium</b> is needed by you and the baby for strong teeth and bones. During pregnancy you need 1,000 mg/d and 1,300 mg/d if you are less than 18 years old.</p>
<p><b>Alcohol Consumption</b></p>
<p>There is no safe time or amount of alcohol to consume during pregnancy. No alcohol is the only way to insure the health of your baby. Alcohol you drink goes to your baby through the umbilical cord. Alcohol affects the baby&rsquo;s growth, the baby&rsquo;s brain, and can cause birth defects. These effects will remain with your unborn child for his/her entire life. FASD (Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders) is the name given to anyone affected by their mother&rsquo;s alcohol consumption during pregnancy. Problems learning, memory retention, and hearing are just a few things that alcohol can do to your child. </p>
<p><b>Caffeine</b></p>
<p>Caffeine in large quantities can lead to low weight babies. It also reduces the amount of vital water in your body. Although not yet proven, some studies suggest that it may harm the fetus. While not as dangerous as alcohol it should still be avoided.</p>
<p><b>Diabetics</b></p>
<p>Diabetics can have perfectly normal babies like every other woman. There are a just a few things you need to be careful of. </p>
<p>1. Keep your blood sugar under control for a minimum of 3 months before becoming pregnant. </p>
<p>2. Make sure you get enough folic acid at all times during your child bearing years (400 mcg/d). </p>
<p>3. Don&rsquo;t let your blood sugar get too high during pregnancy. This can lead to birth defects or your baby having blood sugar level problems </p>
<p><b>Ways To Control Morning Sickness</b></p>
<p>*Eat 6 small meals instead of 3 large ones<br />
<br />*Don&rsquo;t go without eating for long periods of time<br />
<br />*Don&rsquo;t drink fluids with your meals<br />
<br />*Don&rsquo;t eat greasy, spicy, or fried foods<br />
<br />*Avoid unpleasant smells<br />
<br />*Don&rsquo;t get over tired</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>By Georgy Kharchenko</p>
<p>Every living cell on this planet depends on minerals for proper function and structure. Minerals are needed for the proper composition of body fluids, the formation of blood and bone, the maintenance of healthy nerve function, and the regulation of muscle tone, including that of the muscles of the cardiovascular system. Like vitamins, minerals function as coenzymes, enabling the body to perform its functions, including energy production, growth, and healing. Because all enzyme activities involve minerals, minerals are essential for the proper utilization of vitamins and other nutrients.</p>
<p>The human body, as all of nature, must maintain its proper chemical balance. This balance depends on the levels of different minerals in the body and especially the ratios of certain mineral levels to one another. The level of each mineral in the body has an effect on every other, so if one is out of balance, all mineral levels are affected. If not corrected, this can start a chain reaction of imbalances that leads to illness.</p>
<p>Minerals are naturally occurring elements found in the earth. Rock formations are made up of mineral salts. Rock and stone are gradually broken down into tiny fragments by erosion, a process that can take literally millions of years.</p>
<p>The resulting dust and sand accumulate, forming the basis of soil. The soil is teeming with microbes that utilize these tiny crystals of mineral salts, which are then passed from the soil to plants. Herbivorous animals eat the plants. We obtain these minerals by consuming plants or herbivorous animals.</p>
<p>Nutritionally, minerals belong to two groups: bulk minerals (also called macrominerals) and trace minerals (microminerals).</p>
<p>Bulk minerals include calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus. These are needed in larger amounts than trace minerals. Although only minute quantities of trace minerals are needed, they are nevertheless important for good health. Trace minerals include boron, chromium, copper, germanium, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, silicon, sulfur, vanadium, and zinc.</p>
<p>Because minerals are stored primarily in the body&#8217;s bone and muscle tissue, it is possible to develop mineral toxicity if extremely large quantities are consumed. Such situations are rare, however, because toxic levels of minerals generally accumulate only if massive amounts are ingested for a prolonged period of time.</p>
<p>As with vitamins, it can be difficult, if not impossible, to obtain the amounts of minerals needed for optimum health through diet alone. Mineral supplements can help you to make sure you are getting all the minerals your body requires.</p>
<p>Minerals are often found in multivitamin formulas. Minerals also are sold as single supplements. These are available in tablet, capsule, powder, and liquid forms. Some are available in chilled form, which means that the minerals are bonded to protein molecules that transport them to the bloodstream and enhance their absorption. When mineral supplements are taken with a meal, they are usually automatically chilled in the stomach during digestion. There is some controversy over which mineral supplements are best, but we prefer the chilled preparations. Our experience with the various chilled formulas available has shown that, in general, arginate forms of minerals make the most effective supplements.</p>
<p>Once a mineral is absorbed, it must be carried by the blood to the cells and then transported across the cell membranes in a form that can be utilized by the cells. After minerals enter the body, they compete with one another for absorption. For example, too much zinc can deplete the body of copper; excessive calcium intake can affect magnesium absorption (and vice versa). Consequently, supplemental minerals should always be taken in balanced amounts. Otherwise, they will not be effective and may even be harmful. The absorption of minerals can also be affected by the use of fiber supplements. Fiber decreases the body&#8217;s absorption of minerals. Therefore, supplemental fiber and minerals should be taken at different times.</p>

<p>We all want to be respected in whatever occupation we choose to practice, and people who choose sports jobs are no exception. Well, if you seem to have mastered the ins and outs of a certain sport (or maybe a lot of sports), then you just might be qualified to become a sports instructor.</p>
<p>Why become a sports instructor?</p>
<p>People who opt to teach sports-related classes enjoy a certain amount of prestige and respect that other sports jobs may not command. This is because even people who become professional athletes turn to sports instructors at times when they want to fine-tune certain skills. For example, a tennis pro may seek a sports instructor to help her improve her backhand swing, or score killer aces with her serve. A golf pro might ask a sports instructor to identify problem areas in his game, such as awkward putting habits that just kill the athlete&rsquo;s chances at a tourney win.</p>
<p>If you want to become a sports instructor, the first requirement is that you love the sport (or sports) you have chosen to devote your career teaching about. If it is tennis that you love, then be a tennis instructor. If golf makes you high, then teach golf. If you dislike the sport you want to practice in, then that is counter-productive, don&rsquo;t you think?</p>
<p>The second requirement is that you should have adequate training from a respected institution. The apple does not fall far from the tree, as the proverb goes, so if you are recognized as a sports instructor by a respected training institution, the odds are greater that you will get the same level of respect when you start applying for positions as sports jobs instructor.</p>
<p>Types of Positions Available</p>
<p>A good sports instructor can easily find work at such sports jobs all around the US, if you look hard enough.</p>
<p>1. You could opt to teach in schools. All schools (from the elementary to university levels) require sports teachers because all schools have some sort of physical education program established. To become a schoolteacher, you will have to like children and youngsters as a rule. And you have to enjoy imparting your knowledge to these young people, who may become future sports athletes in the future with the right training.</p>
<p>2. A unique type of schoolteacher is one who introduces new sports to the children. For example, one website advertises a position for a sports instructor who will teach Middle Schools about Street Surfing, a new form of skateboarding. If you have an adventurous streak, this might be for you.</p>
<p>3. You could also work in gyms and community centers. Gyms are always a good idea because more and more people are shifting to a fitness-oriented lifestyle, thus fostering demand for sports instructors. Community centers may not show the same demand but are also good places to inquire into.</p>
<p>4. You might seek employment at private country clubs. This is where many perks and benefits can be gained, because the clientele have the money to spend for your compensation.</p>
<p>5. Act as private consultant for professional athletes &ndash; This is also where sports jobs like teaching sports skills are well compensated though they are harder to get into.</p>
<p>So if you want to try getting a job as a sports instructor, these are just some of your options. Keep your eyes open and you might land the best job you ever had soon.</p>
