It’s a Crime to Be Unhealthy!

By Susan Holloway, M.S. Home Economics Child Development-Family Relations Retired Teacher of JMCSS and Madison County Extension

Happy 2023 to you and yours! We all know this year might bring many challenges that affect our personal health or our financial health. I am confirmed to choose an unusual new year’s resolution this year.

I resolve to stop being WASTEFUL in every part of my life. Abundance and then just habit can cause us to be wasteful and we do not even realize it. The less resources wasted the more money, the less resources wasted the more time, the less resources wasted the more prepared I can be for potential times of need, the less resources wasted the more I am proud of the resources I DO have.

I plan to touch on several areas where I notice we are wasteful, these being (1) food (2) time (3) paper products and (4) fuels. I will address each of the four areas in my monthly articles January through April 2023.

I will begin with #1 FOOD. According to Mayo Clinic Health System’s article written in 2021, between 30% and 40% of food in the U.S. is thrown out or wasted each year.

The Department of Agriculture gives these numbers. That is about 133 billion pounds or $161 billion. There is spoilage at every level of picking, transporting, sorting, insects, rodents, bacteria, mold, and discarding from lack of use. The fertilizer, land use, and labor are also wasted.

control:

A. I will keep a magnetic pad of paper on my fridge to write what I need to buy as I cook, plan, and serve food, compare that with the inventory I take of fridge, freezer, and pantry BEFORE I go to shop for food. I will stick to that list when in the store!

B. My shopping list will mainly be created from my planning sessions of meals. This will save me much money and much food waste. I will create menu cards and repeat them during the week(s).

C. I have clear, cheap shoeboxes as storage bins inside my fridge labeled “Leftovers”, “Meats”, “Drinks”, etc. I do not hold leftovers longer than 3 days or I label and freeze them.

D. Produce spoils easily if not stored properly. Produce is very expensive. I do not buy more than what can be eaten in one week. I wrap greens in paper towels, in plastic containers and in crisper drawers. Tomatoes and bananas are on the counter. Potatoes and onions are in a cool, dark place. I always have canned and frozen fruits and veggies on hand too. Most aged veggies can become soup.

E. I will look for discounted products which have a little age on them and use them immediately. I will not buy any bruised or spoiled products.

F. I will compost the foods which are beyond my use. Join me in this unusual resolution for the new year. I write this article in first person because I will be committed to doing these things too. Waste Not, Want Not during 2023. I will make it a habit! Read

7 healthy New Year’s

you can actually keep

resolutions

exercise, healthy eating, healthy habits, sleep, weight loss

The beginning of a new year is a great time to make healthy lifestyle changes, give up bad habits, and improve your well-being. It’s no wonder that many Americans celebrate the New Year by resolving to get healthier. The most popular New Year’s resolutions include getting more exercise, losing weight, and eating a healthier diet. While only a small percentage of people actually keep their resolutions, here are some steps you can take to get healthier in the year ahead and achieve your health goals.

1. Lose weight and keep it off

A resolution to lose weight is one of the most important steps you can take toward better health. Losing just five to ten percent of your body weight can help lower your risk of chronic health conditions, such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and high blood pressure. While fad diets may help you lose weight fast, you’re more likely to experience successful, long-term weight loss if you have a goal of losing about one to two pounds per week.

If you’re ready to start shedding pounds, eat healthy food, get regular physical activity, and follow these 10 weight-loss tips that really work.

2. Eat a healthy diet

Healthy eating involves both what you eat and how you eat. Getting your recommended servings of fruits and vegetables each day is important because fruits and veggies are low in calories and fat, high in fiber, and rich sources of vitamins and minerals. Foods that contain fiber keep you feeling full, which helps you lose weight.

Eating too fast can cause you to overeat, so slow down and chew each bite carefully. Turn off the TV, put your phone away, and enjoy the textures and flavors of the meal. As you eat, it can take your brain up to 20 minutes to get the message from your stomach that you’re no longer hungry, so stop eating before you feel full.

3. Sit less, move more

If you haven’t exercised for a while, going to a gym every day may not be a realistic goal. Making a resolution to simply add more physical activity into your daily life is more attainable. An easy way to become active is to sit less and move more. Park farther away from the entrance to the grocery store, take the stairs instead of the elevator, and exercise while you watch TV. Any amount of physical activity has some health benefits, so if you have a few minutes, you have time to exercise. Finding time for fitness when you’re busy is easier than you may think. If you have limited mobility, find out how to exercise in a chair.

As you become more physically active, you’ll start to feel better over time—and you won’t feel quite right if you go back to your old ways.

4. Schedule an annual checkup

Seeing your primary care doctor each year and taking advantage of your preventive care benefits can help you stay healthy. Regular checkups and preventive screenings allow your doctor to identify minor health issues before they become bigger problems. And treatment is often more effective when an illness is detected early.

Be sure to visit your doctor each year for a regular checkup, even if you feel healthy.

5. Take steps to reduce stress

Learning how to manage stress is an important part of taking care of yourself and maintaining good overall mental and physical health. If your stress is getting out of control, simple activities

THIS IS A SCAM!

The Madison County Sheriff’s Office has been made aware of a scam that involves a telephone number that is being “spoofed” and associated with the Madison County Sheriff’s Office.

The victim, whom answers the call, is told that they failed to show up for court and they owe a certain amount of money for this violation and possibly other violations. In an alternate scam, the victim is told that there are outstanding warrants out for their arrest.

The victim is then told that a warrant will be signed and they can physically go to the Madison County Sheriff’s Office, located at 317 Denmark-Jackson Road, to either pay their fine OR if they pay the fine via telephone/online they will need to have their signature verified by a deputy and must personally go to the sheriff’s office to do so, or they will be arrested.

THIS IS A SCAM!

Please be assured that the Madison County Sheriff’s Office does NOT make such calls. The scammer also will make a website available to pay the fines online, this is also something that the Madison County Sheriff’s Office does not do.

If you receive this type of call, contact the Madison County Sheriff’s Office at 731-423-6000. Please share this information with your family and friends to make others aware.

Reader Writes . . .

Letter to the Editor: Voter turnout for the midterm Election was less than 40% (38.57%) of eligible registered voters. This was the lowest turnout in a decade.

We are living in troubling times. This point was made clearer to me when Governor (Bill) Lee’s Inauguration theme was published last week. The Theme: Tennessee Leading the Nation is an insult to Tennesseans who continue to have to work two or three jobs due to low wages paid in Tennessee, (they) can’t secure or find affordable housing, and TN has a higher number than the National Average for uninsured Tennesseans and the lowest Voters Turnout in decades. Tennessee may be leading the nation in continuing to pay Big Business and the Wealthy, but does it equally apply to All Cities and to All Citizens? The resounding answer based on my research is NOOOO!

Is Tennessee Leading the Nation in paying Living Wages?

No, not according to the recent Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Living Wage Calculator. The Minimum Wage in TN is currently $7.25 and it does not fulfill the Average Living Wage in All 95 Counties, regardless of home size. 35.5% of Tennessee residents had incomes below 200% of the Federal Poverty level (FPL) in 2018, which was larger than the U.S. share (30.4%). The FPL for an individual was $12,784 in 2018. (Census Bureau, Poverty thresholds) Source KFF State Heath Facts: Distribution of Total Population by FPL)

Is Tennessee Leading the Nation in Affordable Housing?

No. Tennessee’s median (synonym for average) home value is $165,000; less than the National average income by $65,000. Apartment Rentals are reported as under the national average by 35-40%. This may be true for some parts of Tennessee but I live in Nashville and that is not a true statement for Apartment Rentals or average home ownership.

Two areas of Tennessee - surrounding Jackson and the southeast near Chattanooga – ranked high for percentage of unhoused people living unsheltered, meaning on the streets or in sheds, parks or vehicles. (WPLN News, Dec 2022) See the picture of Homeless Encampment less than four miles from my home of almost 27 years. Is Tennessee leading the Nation in Affordable Housing in your City?

Is Tennessee Leading the Nation in making medical insurance coverage for All Residents?

No. In Tennessee there were 666,116 uninsured nonelderly individuals in 2018; the uninsured rate was 12.1%, higher than the uninsured rate for the U.S. (10.4%). On the Street, the word is the last Census (2020) was an under-count of large cities and rural areas. If elderly population is added the number of uninsured would be higher. Source: KFF State Health Facts Health insurance Coverage of the Population, Multiple Sources of Coverage.

Tennessee Leading the Nation in Voter Turnout?

Voter turnout for the midterm Election was less than 40% (38.57%) of eligible registered voters. This was the lowest turnout in a decade. Of the 4,550,026 Tennessee registered Voters, the Official turnout for the midterm’s elections was 1,755,218 according to the TN Secretary of State’s Office. The last time Voters turnout was below 40% for a General Election was in 1998, which saw just 32.53% of Registered Voters – 1,026,017 of 3,154,487 – cast a Ballot.

It looks like Tennessee is NOT Leading the Nation (or one of the Leaders) in Voters turnout.

We must do more. Our votes do Matter. If you want to learn more about what Action Steps you or your group and community leaders can take to make The Tennessee Leading the nation for Call contact: healthierftutureconsulting@gmail.com Ask for Arlene.

LIST: HERE ARE THE LAWS THAT TOOK EFFECT JAN. 1, 2023 by: Erin McCullough

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — When the clock strikes midnight on Jan. 1, more than a dozen laws will go into effect. Laws related to medical records, subscription service cancellations, early retirement for emergency communications personnel and mail-order pharmaceuticals are among some of the new laws that will be enforced starting in 2023.

The most notable law taking effect in January is “Dallas’s Law,” named for Dallas “DJ” Barrett, who died after a fight with security guards at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row on Aug. 16, 2021.

The law revises the required training necessary for someone working as a security guard/officer, adding de-escalation techniques, safe restraint techniques, and emergency first aid/CPR training.

Prior to the law’s passage, those hired as security guards by a “proprietary security organization” were exempt from those certain training requirements; now all those hired as security guards in Tennessee will be required to show proof of that training.

DJ’s autopsy revealed he died of asphyxiation, deeming the manner of death as a homicide. Seven people, including six Whiskey Row security guards, were indicted last December on reckless homicide and aggravated assault charges in connection with DJ’s death. Additionally, four of the guards were not properly licensed at the time of the incident, according to court documents.

Other bills going into effect Jan. 1, 2023 include: HB1195/Public Chapter 664: Requires a health insurance entity, a health services provider, or a healthcare facility to notify a patient of communication among the entity, a health services provider, and a healthcare facility concerning the patient’s medical claim; requires a utilization review agent to notify the provider or healthcare facility, as well as the enrollee, when additional information is needed for a prior authorization request. Per the new law, that communication must be given to the enrollee within two business days after that communication has occurred and must include a summary of said communication.

HB1652/Public Chapter 803: Requires a business that allows someone to sign up for a service or subscription online to provide the option to cancel the service or subscription online without additional steps; also creates certain exceptions to this rule, including FDIC-insured banks, NCUA-insured credit unions, local government services, state-regulated public utilities, the FCC or the FERC or businesses licensed by the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance.

HB2416/Public Chapter 1001: Enacts the “Tennessee Abortion-Inducing Drug Risk Protocol Act.” This bill requires any abortion-inducing drug to be provided only by a doctor in a medical facility and cannot be provided through the mail.

7 healthy New Year’s resolutions

cont’d from page 4

like practicing breathing exercises, going for a walk, or listening to music can help restore calm to your life. Chronic stress takes a toll on your health and well-being, so explore healthy ways to relieve stress.

6. Get more sleep

Good quality sleep boosts your immune system and promotes emotional wellness by giving your mind time to rest and recharge. Establishing a relaxing bedtime routine, limiting screen time before bed, and creating a quiet sleep environment can help you get the sleep you need. If you suffer from insomnia, take steps to reduce stress and follow these 9 tips for better sleep.

7. Create a plan to stop smoking

Smoking harms nearly every organ in the body and is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States. Smokeless tobacco causes cancer of the mouth and can lead to nicotine addiction. If you use tobacco, make a plan to quit. Your doctor or healthcare provider can refer you to local resources and help you create a quit plan that is right for you. If you have tried to quit but started smoking or chewing tobacco again, here are 5 ways to resist tobacco cravings that can improve your chances of quitting for good.

HOW TO KEEP YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS

Following through on your New Year’s resolution is challenging. You’re more likely to succeed if you set goals that fit your lifestyle. Creating healthy new habits takes time and energy.

Be specific. Rather than saying you want to lose weight, define exactly how much weight you want to lose. (Remember, a healthy goal is to lose one to two pounds per week.) Don’t just say you want to exercise more—make a commitment to exercise for 30 minutes, five days a week. If you need help defining a specific health goal for the new year, work with your doctor or healthcare provider to create a plan. You doctor can also make sure you have the resources you need to make it happen.

Be realistic. If you haven’t exercised in years, resolving to start training for a marathon isn’t realistic. If you rarely eat vegetables, rather than making a commitment to eat five servings of vegetables every day for the rest of your life, try adding one serving of a fruit or vegetable to a meal each day. Work your way up to five servings per day over the course of the year.

Track your success. If your goal is to be more active, a wearable fitness tracker can help you stay motivated. If you want to stop smoking, keep track of how much money you have saved by not buying cigarettes.

RELATIONSHIPS: PASS IT ON

December was a tough month for myself and some of my closest hunting friends. We spent the whole spring, summer and fall waiting on winter to get to do what we love best, rabbit hunt. But, God has plans for us that we are unaware of which causes us to only be able to move in his time.

Just as hunting season got started I had to have eye surgery to repair a detached retina and have been sidelined ever since.

My good friend, Lilliard Davis, whom I hunt with, was dealt a blow with the unexpected passing of his wife just as hunting season had begun. We attended his wife funeral in Nashville along with other hunting friends of which one was Jeff White of Savannah.

That following Thursday Lilliard called to tell me that Jeff had just passed away. That was entirely too much for us to understand in our natural minds. Jeff has a son name Paul who would go with us and he could carry his load as a young ladd because that is how Jeff trained him.

The relationships passed along in the fields are far more important than the hunt itself. The time spent in the woods with friends can never be underestimated because of the ever presence of God in nature. The spirit has a way of taking control of the hunt when memories and relationships take precedent over the hunt.

Although we don’t have Jeff with us anymore we have his son and his spirit is still with us.

MILAN COUPLE FOUND DEAD IN APPARENT MURDER-SUICIDE

January 5, 2023 Garrett Evans

MILAN, Tenn. — An investigation is underway after two people were found dead in Milan.

According to Milan Police Chief Bobby Sellers, officers from the department were performing a wellness check on a couple on Forrest Street on Thursday morning.

The wellness check was ordered after family members of the couple failed to make contact with them.

When officers arrived on scene and entered the residence, they discovered the couple dead inside.

Police officials say that it appeared the male died by gunshot wounds and the female died by self-inflicted gunshots wounds.

Police officials confirmed the couple was Steve and Susan Short.

At the request of the District Attorney, both bodies will be sent in for an autopsy.

“Sometimes when you’re dealing with things like this where there was no witness that could tell us what they saw, sometimes you want to know and make sure that you’re doing everything you can to give the family a hundred percent, without any uncertainty, of what happened to their family members and their loved ones,” Sellers said.

A 10-year-old has been charged with shooting and killing his own mother.

Prosecutors say the boy pulled the trigger in the basement of the family’s home last month in Milwaukee near 87th and Magnolia.

The disturbing details are laid out in a criminal complaint. Prosecutors are charging the boy as an adult with reckless homicide.

They say the boy told police he was angry.

His mother, Quiana Mann, woke him up early the morning of Nov. 21 and wouldn’t buy him a virtual reality headset from Amazon.

The judge previously set the boy’s bail at $50,000. His public defender said they would like to lower that amount. According to the criminal complaint, the boy was trying to scare his mom, but accidentally shot her in the face.
