5 While it's important for everyone to engage in healthy living practices, regardless of age, gender or physical fitness level, it's especially important to begin these good habits early on in life. Many people find that by establishing good living habits and lifestyle practices at a young age, it becomes much easier to maintain them and stay healthy throughout the rest of their life. There are a few healthy living tips that young men everywhere should consider following in order to be healthy not only while they're still young, but as they get older as well. Read on for a few of these basic guidelines.
WAYS MEN STAY HEALTHY
& STRONG
Eat Right Eating healthily is an important way of maintaining your overall health, regardless of your age. Because many young men have strong metabolisms and seem to be able to eat a lot of food without gaining weight, it's easy to take this as an excuse to eat whatever you want. Keep in mind, however, that the food that you eat may have a bearing on a lot more than just your weight. Your exercise levels, fitness, stamina and long term health are all affected by what you eat.
Avoid Drinking and Smoking
While many young men already participate in sports or other activities, it's essential that you continue to practice these things. It can be much easier to participate in exercise activities while you're in school than it is after you've graduated and have begun to take on a job and other responsibilities. It's crucial that you continue to make regular exercise a part of your life. Plan to get a good workout of some kind four to six days per week.
Many young men smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol. While engaging in either of these practices in moderation has become common throughout the United States and the world, they are still not considered to be healthy living practices. Abstain from drinking and smoking if at all possible. At the very least, you'll be healthier if you do not smoke or drink to excess at any time. Because these habits are also quite expensive to maintain, you'll find that you'll be much better able to save money by limiting the amount that you drink and smoke.
Don't Push Yourself Too Hard
Visit the Doctor
Exercise Regularly
Because many young men are in excellent shape, it can be difficult for those who are not quite as fit to engage in exercise programs. The temptation is often there to push oneself further and harder than is safe or healthy. Always keep in mind your own fitness level and do not push yourself beyond your capacity. This will only lead to discouragement and, even worse, to potential injury.
It's important to get a regular physical exam and to have any medical issues checked out by a doctor. The fact that you're a young man doesn't mean that you aren't subject to important medical concerns.

How to
Prevent
Cataracts Did you know that cataracts are the most common cause of vision loss for individuals over the age of 40? In fact, according to Prevent Blindness America, there are more cases worldwide of this lens-clouding condition than glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy combined. Fear not! No matter what your age, there are steps you can take to help prevent cataracts or slow their development. But don't wait until your vision becomes affected to start thinking about cataracts—read on to discover a healthy tip you can tackle today!
Keep Your Vices In Check It's no secret that cigarettes pose a litany of health risks to you and those around you. But did you know it affects your eye health too? Research suggests that smoking increases your chances of developing cataracts. So if you need another reason to put down the pack, think about the future of your vision.
Have plans to head out to happy hour this week? Just remember to enjoy your beer, wine, and cocktails in moderation. Like cigarettes, excess alcohol consumption can pose a number of health risks, one of which is an increased chance of developing cataracts.
Eat Right
Studies suggest that those with diabetes are at greater risk for developing cataracts. That's why maintaining healthy blood sugar is so important—for both your overall health, and the health of your vision.
3
But a healthy diet should be a priority for all of us. Eating lots of leafy greens is important for healthy sight. Vitamin supplements are also a great way to make up for those nutrients we don't get enough of in our diet. Eating foods high in antioxidants, such as beta-carotene, selenium, and vitamins C and E may also help ward off cataract development.
Shade Your Eyes From The Sun
We've said it before and we'll say it again—protect yourself from UV rays and your eyes will thank you! Ultraviolet light can hasten the formation of cataracts, even in younger patients. To reduce your exposure, wear a wide brimmed hat when spending time outdoors and always keep sunglasses with UVA/UVB protection close at hand in any season.
Visit Your Eye Doctor
Even if your vision is clear and healthy, make it a priority to schedule yearly eye exams. Routine visits allow your eye care professional to look for signs of cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and other vision disorders. This early detection just may save your sight!

STAND UP
to falls!
Home is the place where we feel most safe, so it may come as a surprise to hear that falls in the home are one of the leading causes of injury-related death in the U.S., second only to poisoning. Falls are the most common cause of traumatic brain injuries, including concussions. ELIMINATING TRIPPING HAZARDS
Prevent falls at home and at work by removing the sources of tripping: • Secure electrical and phone cords away from walking areas, such as hallways or in front of your desk. • Use non-skid rugs and be sure to tape them down to prevent rolling. • Keep drawers and cabinets closed when you’re not using them. • Wear proper footwear, paying special attention to outdoor conditions. • Clean up any spills immediately and include warning signage if necessary. • Refrain from walking while distracted - stay focused on your surroundings. • Ensure there is adequate lighting in your workspace. • Don’t carry more than you can handle—large loads can obstruct your vision and affect your balance.
PREVENTING FALLS IN YOUR BATHROOM
Falls can happen anywhere, but in your home, the bathroom is one of the most dangerous places. According to the CDC, about 235,000 people over age 15 visit the emergency room each year due to a bathroom related-injury. Older adults are especially susceptible. According to the National Institute on Aging, 80 percent of senior falls happen in the bathroom due to slippery floors and surfaces. Keep loved ones of every age safe: • Place a non-slip mat both inside and outside of the tub. • Plug-in nightlights in and around the bathroom for increased visibility. • Clean up any condensation or puddles on the floor. • Place non-slip decals on the bottom of your shower or tub. • Keep shampoo, soap and other bath products higher up to avoid bending . • Install grab bars by the toilet and in or near the shower and tub to assist older adults. • Make sure the bathroom door swings outward in case of a fall.
Make your home safer by starting at the source. Remove tripping hazards around your home and ensure your bathroom is slip-free to eliminate the risk of falling. For more information on finding a Primary Care Physician, please turn to page 9 and look under: Family Medicine

SAFETY TIPS
STAY SAFE AROUND FIREWORKS THIS SEASON - FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES!
• Obey all local laws regarding the use of fireworks. • Know your fireworks; read the cautionary labels and performance descriptions before igniting. • A responsible adult should supervise all firework activities. Never give fireworks to children. • Alcohol and fireworks do not mix. Save your alcohol for after the show. • Wear safety glasses when shooting fireworks. • Light one firework at a time and then quickly move away. • Use fireworks outdoors in a clear area; away from buildings and vehicles. • Never relight a “dud” firework. Wait 20 minutes and then soak it in a bucket of water. • Always have a bucket of water and charged water hose nearby. • Never carry fireworks in your pocket or shoot them into metal or glass containers. • Do not experiment with homemade fireworks. • Dispose of used fireworks by wetting them down and placing them in a metal trash can away from any building or combustible materials until the next day. • FAA regulations prohibit the possession and transportation of fireworks in your checked baggage or carry-on luggage. • Report illegal explosives, like M-80s and quarter sticks, to the fire or police department.

O W R E K R I F
AND LET’S NOT FORGET THE SAFETY OF OUR PETS!
• Don’t bring your pets to a fireworks display, even a small one. • If fireworks are being used near your home, put your pet in a safe, interior room to avoid exposure to the sound. • Make sure your pet has an identification tag, in case it runs off during a fireworks display. • Never shoot fireworks of any kind (consumer fireworks, sparklers, fountains, etc.) near pets.

10 SCOLIOSIS PAIN
STRETCHES FOR
Child's Pose
Kneel, and then push your hips back toward your heels. Reach your arms forward and lay your hands flat on the floor. Breathe into the stretch.
Up & Down Dog
In a prone plank position with your arms straight out, push your hips back as far as possible. Hold for two seconds, then lower your hips toward the floor—as low as possible without discomfort.
Rag Doll
Sit on the edge of a chair with your feet wider than hip-width apart. Bend forward, grabbing your elbows with the opposite hands, until the crown of your head faces the floor. Breathe deeply and let the stretch expand slowly, allowing your spine to hang.
Lower Back Stretch Below are some simple stretches you can do at home or in the gym to temporarily relieve back pain due to scoliosis. Stretching with scoliosis is most beneficial when done on a regular basis, so start with a few times a week, and work your way up.
Lie on your stomach with your legs and arms extended straight out. Raise your left arm and right leg toward the ceiling and hold for 5-10 seconds. Repeat with the opposite arm and leg.
Hip Stretch
Begin by holding each stretch for 30 seconds and repeating it two or three times. As the stretches become more comfortable, you can gradually increase the amount of time you spend in each one.
Lie on your back with your legs extended. Gently pull the left knee toward your chest with both hands, keeping your foot lifted toward the ceiling. Stretch as far as you can without pain and hold there. Repeat on the other side.
Chest Stretch
Cat Stretch
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and arms in front of your chest. Pull your arms backwards and press your shoulder blades together, stretching the chest.
Right-Angle Wall Stretch
Kneel on all fours and face forward with your knees under your hips and hands under your shoulders, fingers spaced wide apart. As you exhale, contract your abdomen to push your stomach toward your spine, while curving your back toward the ceiling.
Place your hands on a wall at shoulder level, shoulder-width apart. Walk your feet back until they’re directly under your hips. Push your palms into the wall, lengthening your spine. Keep your lower back tucked in and arms straight.
Overhead Stretch
Back Stretch

Choosing A Primary Care Physician - The Smart Way Choosing a new physician can be a difficult task. Asking for recommendations is a good way to start, but ultimately you will have to decide which physician is best suited to your individual needs and situation. It is important to establish a relationship with a primary care physician (PCP), especially before you ever get sick. Primary care doctors should be the first line of defense in protecting your health, but millions of Americans don’t have a PCP. Even patients who regularly visit specialists don’t always have a PCP, leaving them unprepared when the flu or an infection strikes. Everyone gets sick at some point, so selecting a PCP ahead of time means you don’t have to scramble around when you need medical care. Here are some questions and answers that can help you select a PCP who understands your particular needs.

What information should I find out about the doctor? It may help to ask the doctor’s office these questions: • At which hospitals does the doctor have privileges? • How long does it take to get in to see the doctor for a routine visit and for urgently needed care? • Who covers for the doctor when the need arises? • Is the doctor board certified? (This means he or she has had training after medical school and has passed an exam to be certified as a specialist in a certain field.)
