JUNE UPDATES

Summer is approaching and with it comes the heat. If you need a place to cool down, stop by our centers. You can stay busy with our puzzles or you can play a card or board game with some friends.

The City of Burbank is undergoing an exciting change intended to give residents a more powerful voice in local government. You can learn more on the next page. En Compas Flamenco Dance School will be stopping by Joslyn on Sunday, June 4 to perform flamenco, folk, classical, and stylized Spanish dances. They are the only Spanish dance school in Burbank and includes performers of all ages.

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day is commemorated each year on June 15. This day was launched to provide an opportunity to promote a better understanding of abuse and neglect for older persons by raising awareness of the cultural, social, economic and demographic processes affecting elder abuse and neglect. Experts from Bet Tzedek Legal Services will be at Joslyn on June 13 to offer practical skills that you can use to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Tuttle will be having a Father’s Day Celebration for all of the All Star Dads on Friday, June 16. There will be food, entertainment, and door prizes. It will be a great time. Comfort Keepers will be celebrating their National Day of Joy at Joslyn on Wednesday, June 28. It will be an afternoon of networking, refreshments, treats, and some Luau fun! We hope to see you there.

We have a lot of programs to keep you busy. Come out and learn, try something new, and socialize. We love seeing you come through the doors.

INDOOR CHAIR VOLLEYBALL WITH HARRY

Thursdays at Joslyn

12:45pm-1:45pm

Tuttle program description here. It’s just like volleyball, but instead with a chair and a beach ball. The game follows regular volleyball rules with some exceptions. The beach ball is larger than a regular volleyball so it is easier to control. There are many benefits to chair volleyball, such as reducing stress, improving cardiovascular fitness, increasing flexibility and toning muscles. This is a great way to enjoy some exercise and socialize. Join in on the fun!

Comfort Keepers embraces the idea of elevating the human spirit of everyday, and would love for you to join us for a celebration of the joy in ordinary moments. Comfort Keepers of Burbank is hosting an afternoon of networking, refreshments, treats, deserts, and some Luau fun!

The National Day of Joy, founded by Comfort Keepers in 2019, is about ﬁnding joy in ordinary moments. Too often, the pursuit of joy is relegated to the background of people’s lives as they tackle their day-to-day responsibilities. But for all of us, no matter of our age, ﬁnding joy is important for maintaining your physical health, mental health, and overall well-being.

We want to raise awareness about the need for more joy in the world, and to encourage people to spread joy to others

Nourishing News - Are you Eating Enough Protein?

Protein is an essential nutrient present in every cell in the body and is vital for life. It helps to fight infection, keep fluids in balance, build and contract muscles, carry nutrients and oxygen throughout the body, and is involved with blood clotting. True protein deficiency is rare in the US, although some people may fall short of getting enough protein for optimal health.

How Much Protein Daily?

Protein needs are dependent on body weight, age and certain medical conditions.

Although current guidelines for healthy adults is .36 grams of protein per pound, experts believe that a more optimal intake for seniors is .55 gm per pound.

If you weigh 150 pounds you need 82 grams of protein daily.

Protein needs may differ with certain medical conditions such as kidney disease. Check with your physician before making any dietary changes.

Optimize Protein

Protein Rich Foods Focus on fish, poultry, lean meat, eggs, legumes and reduced fat dairy products. Use the “Nutrition Facts” panel on packaged foods for protein content – be sure to check the portion size.

Portion size is ½ c or 3 oz. cooked for meat, fish or poultry, unless otherwise noted. Nuts and nut butter are high in calories due to the higher fat content. Protein content listed as grams (g) and values are approximate.

• Have protein throughout the day, every day, and at every meal.

• Vary your protein: include fish, poultry, lean meat, eggs and low-fat dairy products.

• Plant-based proteins can supply adequate protein; however, due to the protein quality and digestibility ranking, you may need to eat more. Be sure to choose a variety of plant-based protein throughout the day and include those with a higher digestibility ranking, such as soy foods, tempeh and hemp seeds.

• Breakfast and snacks tend to be lower in protein. Be sure to include protein -rich foods.

Getting Enough Protein?

If you experience lingering fatigue, are constantly hungry, losing muscle or get sick more often, your protein intake may not be enough.

See how much protein you are eating. Aim for at least 20 grams of protein per meal and 8 grams for snacks.

Grams of Protein at Meals:

Breakfast: ______ Lunch: ______ Dinner:______

Grams of Protein at Snacks:
