September 21, 2016 by Daniel

There’s no doubt that the human body begins to break down as you age. While some people age more gracefully than others, you are still at a higher risk for some health issues as you age. Your body just doesn’t work as well the older you get.

Some people will experience a little joint pain, some people will keeping exercising and traveling well into their senior years, and other people will battle illness. It’s a sad fact. Here are a few common things to keep an eye out for as you age, and what you can do to try to stay healthy.

Your Hearing

There are different types of hearing loss that can occur, and you can take some time to learn about the signs of hearing loss. Some causes can include loud noises in your job, not wearing proper ear protection when hunting or mowing the lawn, and even not wearing ear protection at concerts. Your hearing may seem fine early on, but as you get older you may notice changes in how you hear.

Go to the doctor for regular hearing tests, especially as you get older. If you frequent a lot of concerts or mow the lawn for a living you may want to get your hearing checked periodically no matter what age you are.

Your Eyesight

While many issues with eyesight that are deemed age related can actually happen at any age, they are more likely to start happening once you have reached, and passed, 40. You may start to experience vision issues that lead you to a need for bifocals or trifocals, you may start getting cataracts, and you could experience macular degeneration.

People with other health issues, like diabetes and high blood pressure, can also be at an increased risk for eye issues and problem with their vision.

Your Breathing

As you age you may find you get winded faster. It could just be that you are out of shape if you haven’t been doing the physical activity you once did. It could also be other health related issues, some caused by things like smoking, and others that just happen naturally.

If you’re having breathing problems it’s important to get your lungs checked out. Even non smokers can get lung cancer or COPD.

Your Libido

Male or female, aging can affect your libido too. Women going through menopause can often experience in a decrease in sexual interest. There are many reasons for this, mostly hormonal.

Men can also have issues, and can usually find help with drugs like Viagra. However, it’s important to find out what the underlying cause is. Impotence can be caused by anything from smoking to high blood pressure.

3 Ways to Comfort Your Child When He or She Has A Cold

September 19, 2016 by Daniel

Having sick kids is almost worse than being sick yourself. Especially when they’re very young and can’t communicate well with you, it can be a challenge to know what they need and how to best care for them. This can be even more frustrating when it comes to a cold because the only thing to do is just treat the symptoms and ride it out. The best thing you can do is to try to keep your child as comfortable as possible, but what does that really entail? To help you get through this tough time with your little one, here are three ways you can comfort your child when he or she has a cold.

Take Care of The Nose

Before kids can blow their nose on their own, it’s important for you to take care of this task for them. Renee A. Alli, MD, a contributor to WebMD.com, shares that using saline drops to loosen the mucus in the nose and then removing it with a nasal syringe will help to keep your little one’s nasal passages clear. With clear nasal passages, your baby will be able to get more of that much needed rest in order to get healthy again.

Try Chilling The Medicine

Taking medicine is never a fun task for kids. While medication companies have tried hard in recent years to make liquid medicines more palatable, especially for children, it’s still no treat to try to get your child to take their medicine. One trick you might want to try, according to WhatToExpect.com, is chilling the medicine in the fridge before giving it to your child. Children are used to drinking things is a cooler state, so having their medicine chilled might make it easier for them to stomach. Just be sure chilling the medicine won’t affect the effectiveness of the medication before you try this tactic.

Make Breathing Easy

A stuffy nose and chest congestion can make it hard for your small child to breathe like normal. To alleviate this, HealthyEssentials.com recommends putting a couple drops of eucalyptus essential oil in modeling dough and letting your child play with it. Moving the dough will release the eucalyptus, which will help ease congestion and make it easier for your child to breathe comfortably.

If you’ve tried all the methods you know to make your child comfortable but nothing seems to be helping, it’s always a safe bet to visit their pediatrician to make sure there’s nothing more serious going on in their tiny body. But if you’re just waiting for the cold symptoms to subside, try some of the comfort ideas mentioned above with your child.

5 Sets of Helpful Online Tips

August 14, 2016 by Daniel

If you have a computer or a mobile device, and you’re connected to the internet, then you can search through the world’s entire body of online information. And sometimes you want just basic information, whereas other times you’re specifically looking for tips and advice.

And five of those topics that millions (and millions and millions) of people are going to be looking for, every single day, include advice about dating, educational opportunities, the best place to find news, suggestions regarding social media use, and basic business tips. There’s so much data out there you’ll never look through it all, but if you at least find the most helpful stuff, that’s a positive experience.

Online Dating

Everyone want to be matched with the perfect person. That’s a basic, ingrained life goal. Find a partner. Ask them out. Get married and have kids. Go on romantic getaway. Those things all required finding that right match, and with the way that searches and filters work online these days, you’re never more than a few clicks away from finding people that share your similar interests. You don’t have to haunt bars anymore – you just have to find the right online dating sites!

Educational Opportunities

And there aren’t the same gatekeepers to education these days either. Education used to be expensive. Or highly protected among various circles of intellectuals. Now, it’s free for your taking if you can find educational websites that cater to your needs. You might not be able to get official certification without having to pay some cash somewhere along the line, but the information itself is most likely there, so long as you know how to search for free educational opportunities online. Many prestigious colleges offer free courses like this.

Where To Find Your News

Finding your news sources can be a tricky thing. You can either try to insulate yourself with what you want to hear, or you can absorb multiple news sources that center around certain topics. By searching for news online, you’ll get rid of some of your natural bias toward certain things like news channels or websites. Allow yourself freedom online, and expand your worldview.

Suggestions For Social Media Presence

One interesting thing about social media is that though everyone uses it now, not everyone does a great job of using it properly. There’s a flexible, growing social etiquette that comes with public posting, and if you feel like your presence isn’t quite right, searching online for tips is a good idea.

Business Tips

And one thing that business people love to do is write about how good they are at business! That means that you can search through all their tips, and specifically find the ones related to the industry that you’re interested in, and save yourself making a lot of mistakes you don’t have to.
