Our ambitious travel plans leave us vulnerable to new influences from the new environments we so eagerly embrace. Here are some practical tips on how to stay balanced, energetic and well. Dehydration You needn cross the desert to suffer from dehydration. Many of us suffer chronic dehydration simply because we don drink as much water as we should. Our bodies are 65-80% of water, depending on our age. To keep them in balance, it no surprise - we need lots of water! And many people just don drink enough of it. Sodas, juices, coffee and teas do not answer the same need, with the result that the flow in our body systems is disturbed. Our

2 arteries become polluted and our organ function is compromised. People with cardiac disease, and kidney and gallbladder stones often don drink 6-8 glasses of water a day and are chronically dehydrated. Drinking only sodas, coffee, alcohol and the like also depletes our minerals and vitamins, harming us even more. To counteract this depletion we need a quality multivitamin. How to know what constitutes good quality? Put your multivitamin in a glass of water. If it hasn dissolved in?hour it will probably not be absorbed in your body, but will simply be eliminated. Be sure, too, that it is as natural as possible. For example, Vitamin E called tocopheryl is obtained naturally. If this is not stated on the bottle, it is probably an artificially derived version that is inferior. Stress and Depression Stressed out? Use Vitamin C daily. If you want to detoxify as well, take at least 2000 mg. per day. Depressed? Send me an . I am working on two articles full of practical suggestions that will make a difference. Get a good massage: Your friend doesn have to be an expert to rub some Oil of Oregano into your muscles with love and goodwill. You will feel your muscles relaxing as oxygen penetrates deep into the tissue. Don forget your shoulders and neck, the places we most often tend to tense up. Where to obtain Oil of Oregano? Eat fruits and vegetables in abundance and avoid sugars. Did you know that every bacteria and virus loves to grow on sugar? Avoid polyunsaturated fats, use unheated cold-pressed olive oil as much as possible, and use flaxseed to get your omega 3. Summer flu Stomach flu (or gastroenteritis) is often caused by a virus or food poisoning. Avoid solids for the first day. Drink water, broth (?Pieternel?) and some apple juice to maintain your electrolyte levels. A tablespoon of acidophilus every hour can be beneficial. When you can tolerate solids, start with grated apple and cinnamon, mashed bananas and rice water (water and rice has been cooked). Aloe Vera juice is also a good option, or kefir in its natural form. If this goes well, expand your variety of foods slowly. Sunburn Aloe Vera is excellent for sunburn, whether in juice form or straight from the plant. See It best to avoid extended exposure to sunshine as much as possible. It can dry out the mucus in your nose, eyes and ears. To cleanse and make these parts succulent again, use a solution of salt water. Warm up one cup of water with a pinch of salt?about as salty as your tears. Let it cool, then put it into a dropper bottle. Use it to clean out your nose, eyes and ears, where it can accelerate the hygienic discharge of mucus. Swimmer Ear (and Earaches generally) Is anything more relaxing than getting away from it all with a good swim? For some though, this means wimmer ear?and earaches. But these need not discourage you. For problems 搒

Those groups are your 抮 friends and family members, the insurer, and the providers. Friends and Family You want some first-hand accounts of experience with particular health care plans and these people have those accounts. Ask around among your friends and family members and find out who has experience with the particular Phoenix health insurance companies and policies you e considering. You l want to ask them about the selection of primary care physicians, the ease of getting appointments with doctors (and how long the referral period is) and whether they feel their health care needs have been adequately met. Of course, if they have any unresolved claim issues with the health insurance company, you l want to know about those, too. Insurer

4 抮 抮 Obviously you will undoubtedly speak with an agent or representative from the health insurance company you e considering at some point during the selection process. Aside from the usual topics (eligibility, coverage, premiums, etc.), be sure to ask them how they pay their providers. Phoenix health care providers who belong to networks are usually paid per service, salaried, or paid based on a cap or quota. As unfortunate as it is, health care providers sometimes avoid care and procedures for which they may not be paid. Providers Obtain a copy of Phoenix primary care physicians from the health insurance company, and see if there are any in which you e interested. Contact those doctors and talk with them about the referral process (the wait, the authorization, etc.) Affordable health insurance in Phoenix may not seem so affordable if you can get the care you need in a quick manner. Tips For Helping To Maintain Digestive Health 382 Did you know that over 70 million Americans suffer from digestive issues such as irregularity? There are a number of ways to help deal with irregularity, including drinking water, exercising and eating high-fiber foods. Tips For Helping To Maintain Digestive Health Did you know that over 70 million Americans suffer from digestive issues such as irregularity? According to a recent national study, one of the more common digestive issues--irregularity--affects about 26 million Americans. Irregularity can impact a person's overall well-being and have a negative effect on his or her quality of life. Symptoms of irregularity include bloating and heaviness, as well as pain and trouble going to the bathroom. These symptoms can become particularly problematic and inconvenient. There are a number of ways to help deal with irregularity, including drinking water, exercising and eating high-fiber foods. In addition, The Dannon Company recently introduced Activia? a tasty, lowfat yogurt that was developed to help address the issue and contains a natural probiotic culture. Probiotics, meaning "good for life," are living microorganisms, which upon ingestion in sufficient quantities provide additional health benefits beyond basic nutrition.

5 Activia, which contains the natural probiotic culture Bifidus Regularis, is clinically proven to help regulate the digestive system in two weeks, when eaten daily as part of a healthy and balanced diet. Activia works by helping to reduce long-intestinal transit time-the time it takes food to pass through the digestive system. "Irregularity is a source of true discomfort for many people who experience feelings of being heavy and bloated-a person's entire day can be ruined by even a mild digestive problem," said Michael Roizen, MD, Dean of the School of Medicine and Vice President for Biomedical Sciences at SUNY Upstate. With Activia, there is finally a great-tasting food that helps regulate your digestive system. Each four-ounce serving is also a good source of calcium and contains five grams of protein. Try these additional tips for dealing with irregularity: Keep Moving Doctors say exercising just three times a week can help people's digestive health. If you can't make it to the gym, try to at least add more movement into your day. Take a quick walk at lunchtime and choose the stairs instead of the elevator. Every little bit helps. Have A Drink Dehydration can sometimes worsen or even cause irregularity. Doctors recommend people drink at least eight glasses of water a day. Try keeping a water bottle at your desk at work or carry one with you at home. Doing so can help you remember to drink throughout the day.
