DRINKS
If you are interested in improving your health, whether it’s reducing your chances of type II diabetes or just shedding a few pounds, one of the simplest and most effective changes you can make is to quit drinking anything with calories or artificial sweeteners. We all know that soda is bad for us, even if we are in the habit of drinking it. What many health conscious people overlook, however, is that juices have just as much sugar. Our bodies simply aren’t made to process so much sugar, especially fructose, that quickly. Unfortunately for those who drink diet sodas, numerous studies have substantiated that drinking them leads to the same weight gains and health problems as regular soda. That’s believed to be because the artificial sweeteners wreak havoc on the part of your brain that signals satiety, causing you to overeat foods that do have calories. Try cutting out drinks with calories and artificial sweeteners and you’ll be amazed at how quickly you get used to it and at the positive changes you see in yourself.
David Cesar Maintenance Mechanic II “My wife’s been working here 22 years, and she kept telling me what a great place it was to work. I gave in and now have been here for 11 years. There are a lot of fantastic people who work throughout the entire hospital-good doctors, nurses, Patient Access Services, all the departments. My family spans several generations here in Southeast. I was born and raised here and I take a lot of pride working here. I’ve been in the medical maintenance field for going on almost 20 years. It’s fantastic that the Bartlett Regional Hospital Foundation puts up framed student art every year. In 1977 when I was in 3rd grade they hung up my picture and my Mom still has it, so that’s pretty neat.” As a member of the BRH Maintenance Department, David buzzes around campus “doing all typical building maintenance, inside and outside, from painting to leaky pipes to un-clogging toilets to hanging TVs to working on the boilers.” BRH sponsors David’s American Legion Post 25 Baseball Team. They won the state championship for the first time in 34 years in 2017.
