Hi Folks,
May is Stroke Awareness Month, a good time to take stock of your risk factors and overall cardiovascular health. Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and a leading cause of adult disability. Arm yourself with knowledge this May by talking to your doctor, considering a preventive stroke screening, and learning how to recognize the warning signs of a stroke so you can react FAST if you think someone is having a stroke.
If you think someone is having a stroke remember F.A.S.T.

How Seniors Can Improve Their Brain
Hey Senior, have you exercised your brain today?
Hi Folks,
You may have heard me say this before but I’ll say it again: Seniors, you must exercise your body and you must exercise your brain if you want to remain physically and mentally fit.
This has been proven so often and in so many ways that it is ridiculous to even think about question this fact. Yet I have friends that make every excuse they can think of to not exercise or learn new things. Then they complain about not feeling well and being sooo forgetful.

SENIORS, HOW TO BE HEALTHIER IN 2010
Senior Exercise = Healthy Seniors
Hi Folks,
I never fail to be amazed at seniors that refuse to exercise even though it is a proven fact that exercise adds quality and quantity to our senior years.
We have an exercise program for seniors in my church with a leader that is dedicated to senior health. He’s in his upper seventies and in better shape than most men 25 years younger. We exercise three days a week, have the best ole time you can imagine, and there is no charge, but do you know what? Even though we have a large senior church membership we have less than 20 church members in our group (we do have several members in our group that are not members of our church).

Four Steps To Better Health
Want to cut your risk of developing diabetes, heart attack, stroke and cancer by 80% without drugs?
Here’s how.
- Never smoke
- Engage in physical activity such as sports and bicycle-riding for at least 3.5 hours each week (I’m sure that would also include walking and moderate exercise)
- Eat a diet low in red meat and high in fruits and vegetables
- Have a body mass index lower than 30. (A person with a BMI of 30 or above is classed as obese.)
