Capsule Comments
with Ernie Miatello
The awful feeling of an alcoholic hangover is
due, in part, to dehydration. To avoid this,
don't drink to excess (obviously) and drink lots
of water to replace the water the alcohol takes
out of your body.
Rocking is good medicine. That's the rocking -chair kind of rock-
ing. Anxiety and depression can be reduced in people with
dementia by rocking from one to two hours a day. It seems to
improve psychological and emotional health. Seems also to
reduce the need for anti -agitation and pain medications.
Approximately 48 Canadians will die from Lung cancer every
day this coming year. We mention this to get people thinking of
any life-style changes they might want to make for the new
century. Kicking the smoking habit is a good change)
A new product called The B -D Sensability Breast Self -
Examination Aid', provides a higher degree of sensitivity in
detecting abnormalities in the breast. It's about 10 inches in
diameter and consists of two round latex -free plastic sheets
with liquid lubricant inside. it reduces friction between fingers
and breast and works better than using bare hands.
Another year has gone by and 1 want to wish you all a very
happy and healthy 2000. Thank you for all your kind comments
about this column. We look forward to serving you throughout
the coming year with great service by our great staff. Happy
New Yearl
