Enjoy the benefits of gardening — for you and for the planet (ARA) - While some people see gardening as simply playing in the dirt, the physical and mental benefits are well-documented. In addition to being good for your mind and body, sustainable gardening is a great way to be kind to the planet, and to connect you to nature and the food you eat. Gardening is Good for You • Being active in the garden increases your connection to nature and gets you up off the sofa. Remember, weeds won’t wait. • Growing a garden takes patience, follow-through and problem-solving skills, making it a great activity for the entire family. • Gardening helps increase endurance and physical strength, and improves coordination, balance and agility. Working in the garden strengthens muscles, improves blood flow and releases endorphins, which are natural painkillers.

• Activities like pushing a wheelbarrow and carrying plants help to strengthen your heart and bones. • Life can be stressful. Time in the garden can be meditative and calming. Research has shown that people who interact with plants recover more quickly from stress and fatigue. • Growing plants — especially fruits, vegetables, herbs and other edibles — gives a sense of accomplishment and improves nutrition. You’re more likely to eat healthy foods you’ve grown and prepared yourself. If you’re growing fruits and vegetables, make sure to grow a little more than you need and take the GroGood pledge to donate the extra harvest to your local food agency. Gardening is good for your health and giving is too. Gardening is Good for the Earth • Test your soil to find out the pH and how much nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium it contains, and then use a fertilizer that contains the right nutrients for your soil type. Always be sure to sweep any loose fertilizer off sidewalks or driveways to prevent runoff. • Keep an eye on your plants and pay attention to the bugs that you find. Not all bugs are pests. Some, like lady-bugs, are actually beneficial and eat the insects that would otherwise harm your garden. • Many regions of the country experience droughts and water usage restrictions during the summer months. Use a rain barrel to collect water from the roof and gutters and you’ll have a ready supply of water. If you’re not sure when to water your plants or how much, try Miracle Gro Moisture Control Garden Soil.

Boomers back in the job market: Stay ahead by getting your hearing checked

Are the Bills Exceeding Your Income?

If you’re among the millions of baby boomers that the recession has driven back into the jobhunting workforce, don’t overlook one of your most important professional assets — your ability to hear clearly.

Consider these important facts about hearing loss and how to deal with it: • When was the last time you had a hearing test? Can’t recall? You’re not alone. Just 13 percent of general practitioners screen adult patients for hearing loss. While children might be routinely tested a few times throughout their school career, adults tend to overlook the possibility of hearing problems. Because hearing loss usually occurs gradually, over time, you may not notice a problem until it has become advanced. • Hearing loss is not just a senior citizens’ problem. The majority of people with hearing loss — 65 percent — are below retirement age. More than 31 million Americans live with hearing loss, and 15 percent are aged 45 to 64. • While certain professions are at

Are You Running Short of Cash Every Month? ❖❖❖

(ARA) - Impressive resume ✓ check. Perfect interview suit ✓ check. Hearing aid ✓ check, uh, how’s that again?

About 15 percent of people aged 45 to 64 have some degree of hearing loss, according to the Better Hearing Institute. Yours could directly affect your ability to be competitive in the work marketplace and hinder productivity in a new job or career. With Better Hearing Month approaching in May, it’s a good time to protect your competitive edge by ensuring your hearing is as good as it can be.

increased risk of hearing loss, like firefighters, police officers, factory workers, farmers, construction workers, military personnel, heavy industry workers, musicians and entertainment industry professionals, hearing loss can affect anyone in any profession. Our world in general is far noisier and louder than it was even just 20 years ago. • Even mild hearing loss can seriously impact your ability to communicate and be productive. Hearing loss can hinder your ability to listen well during an important job interview, or make you miss vital information during a meeting, phone call or teleconference. • Hearing loss may be irreversible, but does not necessarily have to be continually degenerative. Getting your hearing loss diagnosed and treated early can help slow or even halt its advance. Only a health care professional can diagnose hearing loss and prescribe a treatment, which may include wearing a hearing aid. Hearing aids can help — discreetly, subtly and effectively. Many modern hearing aids are minimally visible and designed

to help the wearer hear more clearly, even in situations where older models might not have worked as well, such as a crowded restaurant. In addition, new technology from industry leader Starkey offers patient-proven features such as PureWave Feedback Eliminator, which eliminates the annoying whistling often associated with hearing aids; Acoustic Scene Analyzer, which instantly adapts the hearing aid for the greatest comfort and clarity even in the noisiest environments; and T2, a breakthrough technology that allows a hearing aid wearer to use a cell or touch-tone phone to conveniently switch modes or adjust volume without the need for additional hardware. Employers consistently rank superior listening skills among the most-desirable traits a job candidate can offer. But the best listening skills in the world are useless if you can’t clearly hear what’s being said. If you’re experiencing hearing loss, a hearing aid can help you compete in a tough job market.

Simple steps to reduce sodium in your summer dining (ARA) - From the barbecue sauce you slather on your grilled chicken to the frozen dinner you grab between coming home from work and running the kids to soccer practice, sodium is simply everywhere in warm-weather fare.

lot of sodium. Instead of buying salty canned soups, chop up fresh veggies and cooked meats, toss them in the slow cooker and season with herbs and spices. If you must buy canned soups or vegetables, look for labels that say “sodium-free,” “no salt,” “low sodium,” “reduced sodium” or “unsalted.”

Even if you never add salt to your food while cooking or eating it, you may still be getting too much sodium. If you have an ailment like heart disease or high blood pressure, following a lowsodium diet is advisable, but may be a challenge to achieve.

3. Pick foods naturally low in sodium. Generally, you can eat as much fresh food as you want without counting the sodium content. Fresh fruits and vegetables, including freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices, have very little sodium. (But remember, please don’t add salt to your fruits and vegetables.) The same is true for fresh meat, poultry and fish. If you are not eating fresh foods, choose other low-sodium foods as much as possible, such as canned fruits, plain frozen vegetables and dried beans, peas, rice and lentils.

If you’ve recently suffered a heart attack or been diagnosed with heart failure, your doctor likely wants you to reduce your sodium intake because heart failure causes the body to retain sodium. Extra sodium can cause fluid to build up in your body, and extra fluid makes your heart work harder — not a good thing for a heart muscle already under strain.

4. Learn to read food labels. A low-sodium diet means restricting your sodium intake to just 2,000 to 3,000 milligrams (mg) a day — a little more than one teaspoon. Don’t confuse sodium and salt. Sodium is a component of table salt, making up about 40 percent of salt. While certain kinds of salt, like sea salt, may have a bit less sodium there’s no such thing as a truly lowsodium salt. While reading product labels can help you be aware of how much sodium is present in the packaged foods you eat — thanks to the FDA’s mandate to disclose such information - it can still be difficult to achieve a low-sodium diet.

MENTION THIS AD

So how can you cut back on sodium? The Heart Failure Society of America, an organization aimed at improving the quality of life for people diagnosed with heart failure and helping prevent the condition in those at risk, offers a few helpful tips:

1. Lose the salt shaker. If you’re still adding salt to your food when you cook or sit down at the table to eat, stop. You’ll cut your sodium intake by as much as 30 percent by parting company with your salt shaker. Replace salt with more healthy seasonings, like black, cayenne or lemon pepper; herbs like garlic, onion powder, dill, parsley and rosemary; lemon juice and flavored extracts like vanilla or almond. 2. Choose low-sodium versions of favorite foods. You don’t have to abandon all your favorite foods in order to reduce sodium. Replace foods traditionally high in salt with fresh foods naturally lower in sodium. For example, instead of preparing a country ham, cook a fresh, lean pork roast. Substitute freshly cooked and sliced chicken, turkey, roast beef or pork for lunch meats that usually contain a

By reading food labels, you can learn which foods are high and low in sodium. As a rule, most processed foods, whether they are frozen, canned or boxed, are high in sodium, but don’t rule them out entirely. Some packaged foods are available in low- or no-salt versions. It can be difficult to change your eating habits, but try introducing changes slowly instead of all at once. It may take weeks before you enjoy the taste of low-sodium foods, but your taste buds will adjust. Be patient. Eventually you won’t even miss the salt.

Boomers and older adults are discovering that what they know is just as important as how much time they can give.

Older adult volunteers bring new expertise and new life to nonprofits ARA) - When Margaret Ross retired from a career in nursing, she had no idea that her new life as a volunteer would lead her right back into healthcare. Neither did Mike Chesnut, whose work building retail partnerships looks a lot like his volunteer service for a group of Denver nonprofits that are fighting homelessness. The same is true for retiree Berlin Hall. Since leaving his accounting executive career, Hall’s desire to help at-risk families led him to volunteer to manage the books for a family services agency. As they move into roles in service and volunteering, older adults like these are discovering that what they know is just as important as how much time they can give. Their help couldn’t have come at a better time.

With demand for nonprofit services skyrocketing, fundraising and revenues are way down. Some experts predict as many as 100,000 nonprofit organizations could run out of money for their programs completely. The recession has spurred more interest in volunteering among older adults, particularly among boomers, says Jill Friedman Fixler, a nonprofit consultant and co-author of “Boomer Volunteer Engagement.” “This is a group with abundant skills and profound circles of influence and they believe they can have an impact in their community right now,” she says. That was the idea for Chesnut. After leaving his job as a retail sales executive with Procter & Gamble, Chesnut, 64, spent several years as a counselor for small business owners. When he moved to Denver a few years

ago, he decided to focus on helping nonprofits. As he explored his options, Chesnut was struck by Denver’s homeless problem. Millions of dollars were being spent pulling families out of shelters, but programs that were trying to keep families out of them to begin with were underfunded. After organizing a coalition of local nonprofits, Chesnut began a research project that eventually led to a successful $600,000 grant. “Coming from the corporate world and working with large retailers, you learn to look for common interest,” he says. “What I did was put numbers to the problem.” Nancy Benyamin, a volunteer coordinator for Jewish Family Continued on page 13

How to save money on senior care (ARA) - With America’s population aging, billions of dollars are spent each year on senior care expenses. But with economic worries affecting many families, cutting costs has become more important than ever. With a little creativity, seniors and their families can save a substantial amount of money. Compare Prices Family members and caregivers can help seniors out by comparison shopping for goods and services online. Changing homeowner’s insurance policies alone can save hundreds of dollars each year. Review all bills and find out if it is less expensive to bundle services like phone and cable. Take Advantage of Existing Services The fall prevention alarms advertised on television can be a great tool to help seniors prevent serious injuries from falls and other medical emergencies, but most of them come with a costly monthly monitoring fee. Look for a personal alarm system that can connect directly to 911 and charges no monitoring fees and has no service contracts. Consider Home Care According to a 2007 MetLife survey, the average annual rate nationally for a private room in a nursing home is $77,745 and is steadily increasing each

year. The annual base rate for an individual residing in an assisted living community is $35,628. The average annual cost of home care can be half the cost of nursing home care. An organization like Visiting Angels provides a cost-effective alternative to assisted living facilities and nursing homes. Caregivers provide up to 24hour elderly assistance in the comfort of home at affordable rates. Home care makes it possible for seniors to remain in their homes and maintain their independence. Reverse Mortgage Many senior citizens have owned their homes for decades and can take advantage of a reverse mortgage — a loan that allows a homeowner to convert a portion of their equity into cash. Unlike a traditional mortgage, repayment of a reverse mortgage is not required until the borrower no longer uses the home as their principal residence. Buy in Bulk Seniors often use the same products, such as personal care items or incontinence supplies, month after month. Purchasing such nonperishable items in bulk online or from a warehouse store can save a great deal of money. Also consider signing up for automatic monthly delivery for health and personal care products. Auto delivery ensures products will no longer run out and shipping is often free.

Continued from page 11 Service who worked with Chesnut, says he’s an example of the increasing importance of skilled volunteers to nonprofits that want to expand their capacity in lean times. “Mike really enabled us to apply for this large grant,” Benyamin says. “Without his assistance, the new funding just wouldn’t be happening.” For Ross, 72, the serious needs she saw as a volunteer for SeniorsPlus in Lewiston, Maine, made her rethink the decision to step away from healthcare completely. After retiring as director of nursing for a state Medicare program, Ross signed up to help answer a referral phone line for SeniorsPlus, an agency that helps the local aging population get services and support.

The organization was so impressed by her knowledge of medicine and healthcare benefits that they asked her to take on a new role as a counselor, and even get additional training. Seeing the healthcare system from the point of view of at-risk seniors has been an eye-opener, Ross says. “In my old job, I rarely was aware whether the patient was insured or not,” she says. “Now I’m on the other side of the fence saying, ‘Let’s get this person the coverage they need.’” For Hall, a Hughes Aircraft retiree, volunteering for Family Assessment, Counseling & Education Services (F.A.C.E.S.) was a way to shield some families from the challenges his own family faced when his father, an alcoholic, left.

Senior Nutrition Senior Cafes .........................................530-888-7137

After reviewing Hall’s background, Mary O’Connor, the executive director at the Southern California nonprofit, asked him to set up a new accounting system for the cash-strapped group. Five months later, the books are on the way to being balanced and Hall has become a strong F.A.C.E.S. supporter. He says his experience getting involved on a skilled basis, while frustrating at times, has been extraordinary. “If my mother had access to this kind of thing, I can see how much better off we would have been,” he says with emotion. “But I had no idea that the kind of challenges this organization faces even existed.” To find skilled volunteer opportunities, visit www.VolunteerMatch.org.
