What's on your holiday shopping list?

(ARA) - Holiday shopping lists often contain toys, gift cards and
other material items that the recipients can enjoy and put to good
use. But your shopping list can go much further to not only benefit
the recipients, but also a great cause.

Make your holiday gifts go further this holiday season with gifts
that give back. One way is to purchase gifts through the American
Diabetes Association's Gift of Hope catalog, where every penny of
profit goes directly to diabetes research. In the last 40 years, more
than $24 million has been raised.

Gift of Hope offers an exclusive line of items for everyone on your
list:
Holiday cards, many of which were created by or dedicated to a
person with diabetes
Personalized photo gifts, including holiday greeting cards, travel
mugs, phone skins and more
* House wares and seasonal gift items, such as plates, ornaments and
hand towels

Catalog purchases are a Gift of Hope to the nearly 26 million
children and adults in the U.S. who have diabetes, including Kathy
Howard from St. Louis. In 2008 Howard went to the emergency room
thinking she had the flu, only to find out she had a stroke and type
2 diabetes.

"I couldn't even put into words the shock and terror I felt those
first few days," explains Howard. "I began a new life the day I went
to the hospital."

Since her stroke and diagnosis Howard has lost over 85 pounds and
exercises regularly. "You have to keep working towards good health,"
she says. "Don't wait until something happens."

Another way to give back this holiday season is to make a donation
in honor or memory of a loved one. Gift of Hope offers honor or
memorial gift cards, which represent a tax-deductible donation to
diabetes research.

No matter which way you give, buy gifts that support a cause this
season. Feel better about successfully checking off your holiday
shopping list, while also making a difference in the lives of
millions.

Support the Association's diabetes research efforts and help people
like Howard. Shop the Gift of Hope online catalog at
www.shopdiabetes.org/giftofhope.

Put your mental health first during the holidays

(ARA) - The holiday season is a chance to reconnect with friends,
spend time with loved ones, and enjoy the hustle and bustle of gift
shopping. For the millions of Americans living with bipolar disorder,
a manic (high) or depressive (low) episode may occur at any time and
the holidays can be a time to focus on themselves and managing the
condition going into the New Year.

People living with bipolar disorder, a lifelong condition, may
experience extreme changes in mood, thought, and behavior. Their mood
may alternate between episodes of mania and depression. What's
important to know, particularly given that nearly half of U.S. adults
will develop a mental illness during their lifetime, according to the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is that talking with a
health care professional can help a person living with the condition
find appropriate medication, therapy, and support groups.

The hustle and bustle of the season may make it difficult to stay on
track and follow through with refilling necessary prescriptions,
making appointments, and taking time out to relax. During busy times
like the holiday season, people with bipolar disorder should be sure
to take time to focus on themselves and the importance of managing
their condition.

"I've seen firsthand how dealing with the holidays can have a
negative impact on mental health, and it doesn't have to be that way
for those suffering from bipolar disorder," says Dr Lisa Perdue,
director of the Intensive Behavioral Service at Terrell State
Hospital in Terrell, Texas. "There is a lot of pressure to make every
holiday season the biggest or the best. People with bipolar disorder
need to make their health a priority. That can mean saying "no" in
order to stay on track with doctor's appointments, or skipping a
party to relax and enjoy 'me' time."

People living with bipolar disorder should talk to their doctor to
get an accurate diagnosis and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
TakeonDepression.com, a site sponsored by AstraZeneca, contains
helpful resources to support, educate, and inspire those affected by
bipolar disorder, and to encourage them to have an open, honest
conversation with their doctor.

In addition to information, the site offers tools such as a mood-
tracking diary to help recognize symptoms, manage a treatment plan,
and have more productive conversations with a doctor. It also
features inspiring true stories from people on how they successfully
manage their symptoms.

For more information about bipolar disorder and helpful resources,
visit www.TakeonDepression.com.

Dr Lisa Perdue was compensated as a spokesperson by AstraZeneca.

Simple safety advice to protect young children in the home

(ARA) - When your child skins her knee or bumps her head,
how do you comfort her? With a kiss and a hug? No matter how
loving and careful you are, it's impossible to shield your
children from all of life's little injuries.

Parents often think their children are safest in their own
home. Sadly, every year home accidents send thousands of
children to the emergency room, many with serious injuries.
But by taking some important precautions, such as replacing
traditional blinds with cordless, motorized versions, you
can help ensure your child avoids serious home accidents.

Here are some safety tips that can help parents keep
children safe at home:

Choking and strangulation prevention

Choking and strangulation can be significant hazards in the
home. You can minimize choking risks by making sure small
children are served age-appropriate foods cut into smaller
-than-bite-sized pieces. Never give foods that are choking
hazards, such as hot dogs, nuts or raw carrots, to infants.
Always stay with your small child while he is eating, so
that you can quickly respond if he does run into trouble.

Window treatments with cords are among the biggest home
safety hazards for children. Since 1990, more than 200
infants and young children have accidentally strangled
on window treatment cords, according to the Consumer
Product Safety Commission. The dangling cords are
attractive to children, who may become entangled in them.
Consider replacing traditional corded shades with
motorized shades. These blinds and shades, powered
by manufacturers like Somfy Systems, eliminate cord
risks because they are controlled by a motor and remote
control or wall switch. Motorization also offers many
other benefits, from convenience to energy savings,
that make them a good choice when you're making your
home child-friendly.

Falls

Falling down is part of growing up, and hopefully your
little one will suffer nothing more than a few scrapes
and bumps. More serious falls, however, can be a
significant risk to children's safety. And children
falling down are not the only danger; parents need to
take precautions to prevent furniture and home items from
falling on children.

Keep stairs and floors clear of toys or other objects that
could cause someone to trip. Secure stairs with safety
gates at the top and bottom of the staircase. Windows should
have safety guards and remain locked when not open. Never
leave a child alone in a room with an open window, even if
the window has a screen on it. A small child's weight can
be enough to pop a screen out of a window and expose a child
to a potentially fatal fall.

To help ensure your child's falls are minor, minimize situations
that could lead to trouble, such as attractive toys placed atop
furniture that could tip over when a child climbs up to get the
toy. Move furniture away from windows and secure items to the
wall with anchor straps. If you have a flat screen in your home,
consider wall-mounting it for safety.

You can't protect your children from all life's bumps and
scrapes. A few precautions, however, can help ensure that all
their accidents are the kind you can heal with a kiss and a
hug.

Sinus health tips to help you feel better through flu and
cold season

(ARA) - If you're a "seasonal allergy" sufferer, you know the
term "seasonal" can be a misnomer. Allergy symptoms can flare
up year-round, even during the height of cold and flu season.
Just as cold and flu season doesn't stop when winter ends,
allergies don't necessarily disappear just because summer is
over. Taking care of your sinuses year-round can help you feel
better whatever the season.

"Sinus health is the foundation for good respiratory health,"
says Mike Tringale, vice president at the Asthma and Allergy
Foundation of America (AAFA). "And we are increasingly
finding that relieving nasal congestion makes a huge impact on
the quality of life for people of all ages."

AAFA offers some tips for reducing sinus symptoms, whether
they're caused by allergies, a cold or the flu:

To reduce your chance of catching a cold, avoid touching your
face or nose. Wash your hands with hot water and soap regularly,
especially after being in public places like stores, transit
stations, schools or offices.

To clear out nasal congestion, consider naturally derived
saline moisturizers, available at most retailers, year-round.
Drug-free and preservative-free options like Arm & Hammer
Simply Saline can be used as frequently as needed because it's
made of purified water and sodium chloride.

Talk to your doctor about getting a flu shot each year to try
to avoid getting the flu. However, if you feel flu-like symptoms,
talk to your doctor within the first few days to get medications
that will reduce the severity.

Manage your seasonal allergies by reading daily pollen counts
and limiting your outdoor exposure on high-pollen days, and keep
windows and doors closed during the morning hours before noon,
when pollen tends to be most prevalent in the air.

You can also log on to www.SimplySaline.com, the website of Arm
& Hammer Simply Saline, for more information and allergy-management
advice.

Top tips for keeping skin healthy and beautiful all winter long

(ARA) - No matter where you live in the country, winter's grip
can take its toll on your health, including your mood,
waistline and even your skin.

"It's important to consider the seasons in your skin care
routine and make adjustments for the best possible results,"
says Dr. Gervaise Gerstner, a board-certified dermatologist
and assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai.
Gerstner's advice has appeared in the pages of Allure, Harper's
Bazaar, Self and W magazines. "Your skin is the largest organ
in your body, and the first line of protection for all the other
organs. Sunlight, changes in weather, and seasonal stress can
affect our skin's health. They're also factors that make us
overlook proper care, so it's critical you have the right
routine in place."

Gerstner offers her top tips for keeping skin beautiful and
healthy this winter, and all year long:

1. Keep your hands off. Your hands can pick up a lot of germs
and bacteria during the day that can cause breakouts or even
infections, so keep them far away from your face. Also, since
inter is often associated with irritating flareups of pimples,
rashes and cold sores, it's important to avoid the urge to pick.
Picking can cause inflammation, and with broken or raw skin,
further put you at risk for infection, and even cause scarring.

2. Slather on sunscreen. "Even on days it rains or snows, it's
important to wear sunscreen," Gerstner advises. Your skin is
constantly exposed to potentially harmful UVA and UVB rays.
Even just walking from your office to the coffee shop on the
grayest of days exposes you to possible solar damage, such as
rinkles and even skin cancer.

3. Treat ailments quickly. Common conditions like cold sores
can be embarrassing and painful, so treat them right away to
find relief. Remedies found at your local drugstore can be
effective, and Dr. Gerstner recommends Nexcare Cold Sore
Treatment from 3M. It contains Microvex to soothe and
moisturize, and active ingredients benzocaine to help
relieve pain and allantoin for added lip protection.
Log on to www.nexcarecoldsore.com to learn more.

4. Don't forget your nails and hair. They're part of your
skin too, and often show the most obvious signs of winter's
impact like raw skin and split ends. It's important to properly
moisturize, such as using a leave-in or deep conditioner, or
heavier creams on your face and hands. Dr. Gerstner also says
that hair loss and brittle nails are two of the most common
complaints she hears from her female patients. Taking a daily
biotin supplement of 5,000 mcg can help. Limit use of a flat
iron to once or twice a week, and avoid excessive hair coloring
treatments.

5. Brighten your smile, and use it often. Winter's weather woes
and seasonal stress can make it easy to forget to smile, but
nothing makes your face look better than a big grin. Keep your
teeth well polished - whitening strips can help - and flash your
smile frequently. It can brighten your mood and the moods of
others around you.

6. Quit smoking and moderate alcohol use. By now, virtually
everyone knows smoking is deadly. But if the health threats
of smoking don't convince you to quit, perhaps an appeal
to your vanity will help. Smokers suffer more wrinkles, poorer
skin texture and slower wound healing than people who don't
smoke. Alcohol too can dehydrate your body - which often shows
the next day in parched skin and eyes. It also exacerbates
adult acne, called rosacea. When drinking alcohol, alternate
with a glass of seltzer.

7. Forego designer brands. Expensive creams leave your wallet
lighter and don't necessarily make your skin look any better
than less costly products do. Simple drug store products can
work just as well, especially if supplemented with a retinol
or glycolic recommendation from your dermatologist. Fancy
ducts often contain essential oils or fragrances which can
irritate skin.

Wanted: a new generation of lifesavers

(ARA) - When she spotted the dying man, Desiree Rossi took action
when no one else would. Although a crowd of adults surrounded the
collapsed body near Desiree's bus stop in Pawtucket, R.I., they were
frozen - but not her. Rossi ordered an adult to call 9-1-1 and then
she started CPR. She was 17.

Paramedics arrived and took the man to a local hospital where he was
stabilized.

"I couldn't believe that no one stepped in - that it took a 17-year-
old kid to be the one to take action," says Rossi, who had been
trained in CPR just six months earlier at her high school.

Rossi's story illustrates a huge obstacle to overcoming the dismal
survival rates from sudden cardiac arrest: lack of bystander action.
Less than 8 percent of victims who suffer cardiac arrest at home, at
work or in other public places survive. And fewer than one-third of
cardiac arrest victims gets CPR from a bystander.

"Getting people to act when someone suffers sudden cardiac arrest is
critical to the victim's survival," says Michael Sayre, M.D.,
chairman of the American Heart Association's Emergency Cardiovascular
Care Committee. "Time is not on the victim's side. Four to six
minutes is the window of opportunity for someone to act before it is
too late."

The American Heart Association wants more people to take action and
help cardiac arrest victims. The association is helping create the
next generation of lifesavers at Bethebeat.heart.org, where teens can
learn the basic skills of CPR and how to use an AED.

"Teens can learn how to save lives and play an important role by
setting an example for their friends, families and neighbors about
the need for CPR and AED training," Sayre says. "They can also
encourage the adults in their lives to learn learn CPR."

Be the Beat features games, educational videos and interactive
quizzes. Songs with 100 beats per minute (the correct rate for chest
compressions when administering CPR) are also available on the
website.

And the association recently simplified the steps of CPR with Hands-
Only CPR. When a teen or an adult suddenly collapses, there are two
easy steps: (1) Call 9-1-1; and (2) Push hard and fast on the center
of the chest until professional help or an AED arrives.

Getting formal CPR training is also easier than ever. Visit
americanheart.org/CPR to find a class in your neck of the woods, or
order a self-directed CPR training kit at cpranytime.org to learn at
your own pace.

The American Heart Association wants 1 million people, including
teens, to learn about CPR during CPR Week June 1-7. Learn more at
www.cprweek.org.

"Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone at anytime," Rossi says.
"It happens all the time. You never know when you'll need to use CPR."

Beat the heat: Tips for keeping your family safe and healthy
this summer

(ARA) - The smell of the barbecue grill, the sounds of children
playing and the feel of warm sun on the skin are all signs of summer.
With increased outdoor activities, there also comes a list of
precautions you should take to keep your family safe and healthy.

"We know women are usually the caretakers of the family," says
Elizabeth Battaglino Cahill, a registered nurse and executive
director of HealthyWomen. "Summer brings lots of great opportunities
for family fun, but also requires some special planning to keep kids
and adults safe and healthy in the sun and heat."

Limit sun exposure
Because exposure to the sun causes most of the skin changes
associated with aging, protecting the skin from the sun is the single
most important skin care practice you can adopt and impart to your
children. Significant exposure to the sun will wrinkle and dry the
skin. Uneven pigmentation - from freckles to small or large brown
spots - is another side effect of frequent sunning.

The most serious consequence of sun exposure is skin cancer. Most
sun damage occurs before age 18, but skin cancer can take up to 20 or
more years to develop. Children who experience just a few serious
sunburns are believed to have an increased risk of developing skin
cancer later in life. Protect children by applying sunscreen at least
an hour before heading outside and frequently reapplying sunscreen
with an SPF of at least 15. Also have them play in the shade and wear
protective clothing. Babies younger than 6 months should never be in
direct sunlight and should always wear a hat and clothing that
protects them from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays.

Keep an eye on your vision health
Wear sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat when you're in the sun. These
two simple steps can reduce your exposure to eye-damaging UV rays up
to 18-fold. And, if you wear contacts, ask your eye care specialist
about contact lenses with UV protection. Don't forget your children
and their eyes. If you are going to be in the sun, make sure your
children are wearing hats that provide coverage. Use your stroller
hood when out for a walk and pay attention to the sun's direction.
When out for a walk with your stroller, try to walk so that the sun
hits your back. You may also want to consider purchasing children's
sunglasses.

Practice water safety
Before you start splashing, remember safety first. Take the time to
enroll your kids in swim instruction classes, and teach your children
to take precautions before diving into the water. Make sure to read
the safety and warning labels on all children's toys, inner tubes and
water wings so that you understand their safety capabilities. And
remember to reapply sunscreen every few hours after being in the
water.

Avoid foods exposed to excess heat
During the summer months, many people enjoy going for a picnic.
Before packing your basket this summer, think about how long your
food will be exposed to the outdoors. Avoid packing meat, dairy and
egg products that may spoil if not kept cold. If you decide to bring
these types of food products, pack them separate from each other in a
cooler, and keep the ice in a sealed container to avoid a soggy
sandwich.

Stay hydrated
Increase fluid intake as appropriate based on the weather. High
temperatures or humidity outside, heated indoor air and high
altitudes all cause you to need more fluids.

When exercising, drink one cup of fluids every 15 minutes, advises
Dr. Werner W.K. Hoeger, a fellow of the American College of Sports
Medicine and director of the Human Performance Laboratory at Boise
State University.

Add more for big events. If you're going to be in a race or charity
walk, make sure you drink enough to be well hydrated the day before,
Hoeger adds. Also, drink a glass of fluid, such as water or a sports
drink, an hour before the event.

Watch out for overheating in vehicles
Even on a relatively mild day, the temperature inside your vehicle
can quickly escalate. These temperatures can put both children and
pets at risk for heat stroke, dehydration and even death. Never leave
your child or pet unattended inside your car, even to run a quick
errand.

Pools and hot tubs, a fun way to stay fit

(ARA) - Swimming pools and hot tubs are just plain fun, but
many people overlook the health benefits. Just about anyone,
regardless of age or physical condition, can gain health
benefits from swimming.

Swimming as a regular form of exercise can cut males' risk
of death by 50 percent as compared to runners, walkers and
those with a sedentary lifestyle, according to a recent
study by Dr. Steven N. Blair of the Arnold School for Public
Health at the University of South Carolina. Blair found similar
health and fitness benefits in an earlier study for women as
well.

Regular laps in the pool can help tone the muscles in your
entire body, lower blood pressure, increase circulation and
raise metabolism and endurance. Because humans weigh less in
the water, people who can't participate in other forms of
exercise because of injuries or excess weight can swim
safely. And swimming is a fun and interesting workout that
keeps people coming back for more.

And, after a long session in the pool, or a long day at
work, what could be better than time spent relaxing in a
hot tub?

The steamy, swirling waters of a hot tub provide a great
place to loosen up and even to socialize, but can also lower
your blood pressure and decrease joint pain and swelling.
Additionally, the combination of heat, buoyancy and massage
in a hot tub can provide therapeutic benefits for those with
arthritis, diabetes, insomnia and more.

A recent study supervised by the Foundation for Physical
Therapy and funded in part by the Hot Tub Council of the
Association of Pool and Spa Professionals found significant
recuperative benefits for knee replacement patients who
performed their physical therapy in warm water.

When you make an investment in a home pool or hot tub,
you're not only potentially increasing the value of your
home
and making your house the most popular on the block, you're
increasing the length and quality of your life.

service company, visit www.APSP.org. For more information on
the health benefits of warm-water therapy,

Grilled Italian Sausage with Peppers & Onions
Prep: 10 min, Cook: 30 min.

3 large green bell peppers, trimmed and quartered
lengthwise
1 large red onion, quartered lengthwise and separated
into layers
3 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
1-1/2 tsp. red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp. dried oregano, crumbled
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
1 lb. Italian sausage
* 2 metal skewers

Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal
(moderate heat for gas). (If using a charcoal grill, open
vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. When
Charcoal turns grayish white (about 15 minutes from
lighting), hold your hand 5 inches above grill rack to
determine heat for charcoal as follows: Hot: When you can
hold your hand there for 1 to 2 seconds; Medium-hot: 3 to 4
seconds; Low: 5 to 6 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat
burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then, if necessary,
reduce to heat specified in recipe.)

Toss peppers and onion with 1/3 of the oil. Grill on
lightly oiled grill sheet set directly on perforated grill
sheet, with grill covered only if using a gas grill,
turning occasionally, until slightly softened and charred,
9 to 15 minutes (onion will cook faster), transferring to a
bowl as cooked.

Add vinegar, oregano, salt, pepper, and remaining oil to
peppers and onion, tossing to coat. Let stand 10 minutes to
allow flavors to develop.

While vegetables stand, run skewers crisscrossed
horizontally through sausage coil, securing ends. Grill
directly over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas)
on lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using a gas
grill, turning over once, until cooked through, 10 to 12
minutes total. (Thicker sausage may take longer.)

Transfer vegetables to a platter and top with sausage.

Smart Tips for Healthy Eating

(ARA) - Food can make you healthier -- if you make good
choices. It can seem hard to make healthy food choices,
particularly if you are on a budget and short on time. But
there are some simple steps you can take to help you and
your family eat healthier.

Build a Healthier Plate
Use a grocery list when shopping for food to help you
choose more fresh vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Buy
leaner meats (such as chicken, turkey, and lean cuts of
pork or beef such as sirloin or chuck roast) and lower fat
dairy products like low-fat or non-fat (skim) milk and
yogurt. Buy whole grain breads and cereals. Save money by
buying less soda, sweets and chips or other snack foods.
Remember that special "dietetic" or "diabetic" foods often
cost extra money and may not be much healthier than simply
following the suggestions given here.

Also, watch the size of your portions. You may find that
you are used to eating portions that count as two or more
servings. It helps to be able to "eyeball" portion sizes.
Here are some guides:
Meat, fish, and poultry: 3 ounces, or about the size of
the palm of your hand or a deck of cards.
Cheese: 1 ounce, or about the size of your thumb.
Fresh vegetables, milk and yogurt: 1 cup, or about the
size of a tennis ball.
Bread: one slice.

Easy Ways to Make Smart Food Choices
There are lots of ways you can make smart choices about
your own and your family's eating habits. According to Ann
Albright, PhD, RD, president, Health Care and Education of
the American Diabetes Association, "One of the most
important things you can do to start eating more
healthfully is to pick one or two not-so great items you
eat frequently and find a more nutritious substitution for
those. If you start with foods you eat more frequently,
then the change will pack a bigger punch."

Shop Smart
Set aside some time to plan your weekly meals. It may
seem like a hassle at first, but having a plan (and writing
your grocery list with it in mind) can save you time,
stress, and a lot of extra trips to the store.

Stock your pantry with plenty of healthy basics,
including brown rice, whole grain pasta, crackers and
cereals. Remember that fresh fruits and vegetables are
usually healthier than canned or frozen, but it is better
to have canned or frozen fruits or vegetables than none at
all! When you run out, put the items on your grocery list
so you'll always have them on hand.

Shop only from your grocery list. Avoid aisles that
contain foods high in calories but low in vitamins and
minerals such as candy, cookies, chips and sodas. Also
avoid buying items promoted at the front of the store, on
the "end-cap" displays at the end of each aisle, or at the
cash register. These foods are usually low in nutrition.
Never shop when you are hungry and might be tempted by less
healthy food.

Eat Smart
Keep fruits and vegetables washed and cut up for easy
snacking and steaming.

Canned and frozen vegetables and fruits are healthful,
quick and convenient. To cut down on the sodium in
vegetables, drain and rinse canned vegetables with water
before heating them You can do the same to cut down on the
added sugar in canned fruits. Better yet, buy them packed
in juice.

Learn how to "Create Your Plate." When serving a meal,
draw an imaginary line down the middle of your plate and
another one across. Fill half of your plate with leafy
greens and other vegetables. Fill one quarter with grains,
like whole grain bread or pasta or brown rice. Then fill
the last quarter with lean protein such as chicken or fish.

Start meals with a salad or a broth or tomato-based soup
with lots of vegetables. This helps you eat more good-for-
you veggies while filling you up before you get to the
higher fat and calorie courses.
Make healthy snack foods easy to find in your kitchen. For
example, when you get home from work or school, put some
fresh carrots, grapes, or pretzels out on the counter
instead of having bags of chips out.

In restaurants, ask if meats can be grilled rather than
fried, and request sauces and dressings on the side.
Remember to choose fruit, salad, or other vegetables as
side items, rather than French fries. Order a salad or soup
to start and then share an entrée. Save money, and lots of
calories, by skipping dessert.

Learn more about healthy eating and how it can help lower
your risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

Simplify Your Medicine Cabinet

(ARA) - If opening the medicine cabinet can be hazardous
to your health, you are not alone. With the many items each
family member uses daily, it's hard to keep this area clean
and clutter-free. Update your medicine cabinet by opting
for all-in-one products that save time and shelf space.
Also, consider these tips for simplifying your medicine
cabinet.

Stay Healthy:
Remembering to take a variety of different vitamins every
day can be difficult. Swap out numerous bottles for one
multi-vitamin that meets all of your daily nutritional
needs. Also, consider moving vitamins to a different
location, such as a kitchen cabinet, that you visit each
morning.

Don't Compromise:
Having to compromise when it comes to your smile is a
thing of the past. New Crest Pro-Health Whitening
toothpaste combines both health and beauty benefits. It
protects all these areas dentists check most: fights
cavities, tartar, sensitivity, plaque and gingivitis;
whitens; and protects against bad breath. It reduces
unhealthy buildup and up to 80 percent of surface-level
stains for naturally whiter teeth in just six weeks.

Be Prepared:
While space may not allow for a complete first aid kit, be
sure to have the necessities on hand in case of an
emergency. Help prevent infection and promote healing of
common injuries by getting rid of that never-used
antibacterial spray and choosing bandages that contain
antibacterial ointment. Each month, perform a quick
inventory of necessities to ensure the medicine cabinet
remains well stocked with basics, like aspirin and cotton
swabs, but also use this time to reorganize shelves.

Beautify:
Dispose of last season's makeup and update your look with
products that can be used year-round. Replace multiple
shades of lipstick and blush with a timeless, versatile
shade that can be used on both cheeks and lips.
Additionally, consider upgrading a basic facial moisturizer
to one that also includes SPF for skin that is both
nourished and shielded from damaging UVA and UVB rays each
day.

Simplifying even a small portion of your day makes a big
difference. Making these minor but effective changes to
your medicine cabinet will simplify everyone's daily
routine and keep you feeling healthy and looking great.
