Capsule Comments
by Ernie Miatello
Diabetics who drink alcohol should be prepared
for a lowering of blood sugars. Eating before
drinking helps slow the absorption of alcohol
and may help prevent low blood sugar
reactions. Have a high carbohydrate snack ready if levels dip too
low and have your blood glucose monitor with you and use it.
March is National Nutrition Month. Science knows much about
vitamins and minerals but this knowledge is relatively recent. It was
in 1936 that Vitamin E was isolated as a chemical entity and in 1937
Vitamin B-1 and Vitamin K were discovered.
We don't often mention Internet sites in this column, but since this is
Nutrition Month, there is one that we'd like to mention. It's
www.5tol0aday.com The Canadian Cancer Society and the Heart
and Stroke Foundation of Canada have teamed up to provide this
great site to promote healthy eating. Of course, the main thrust is to
get Canadians eating 5-10 serves of fruit and vegetables each day.
If you are using inhalers to help your breathing, it is important to
develop a good technique. Even if you do it perfectly, only 10% of the
dose reaches the lungs. With poor technique, much less gets there
resulting in poor control of your lung conditions.

Clean, safe
drinking water
is up to you.
If you serve your community, you have
a responsibility to serve your community
clean drinking water.
Everyone has a stake in clean drinking water. Our families and
friends; our clients and customers. Under Ontario's new Drinking
Water Systems Regulation, owners of drinking water systems now
must comply with strict water quality and operating standards.
If you own or operate a business or service facility of any kind that
serves the public and relies on its own source of water, then you are
affected by the regulation.
Mobile home parks, campgrounds, small hotels, gas stations and places
of worship are some of the establishments subject to the regulation.
So are children's camps, schools, hospitals and any social care facility.
In short, any place where the general public has access to a drinking
water system, such as a washroom, drinking water fountain or shower.
You are also subject to the new regulation if you own or operate
a system that supplies drinking water for a seasonal or permanent
community of six or more residences.
We all share the same water resource. Small drinking water systems
now join municipalities, industries and the agricultural community
in doing their part to protect the quality of Ontario's drinking water.
Find out what you need to do as a responsible
provider of clean, safe drinking water.
