CHRISTMAS 2010


HEALTH for the HOLIDAY SEASON

Here are some tips for the Holiday Season:

1. Plan Christmas activities for yourself and your family to prevent tension and stress.
2. Take care of yourself and your family against changes in temperature. Children and adults may become susceptible to cough, colds and fever. If your cough, colds and fever is more than five days, consult your nearest health station.
3. Prepare a well balanced Noche Buena and Media Noche meals. Make sure that vegetables and fruits are on the table together with your traditional ham and queso de bola.
4. Be kind to your heart. Eat a moderate amount of nutritious foods to sustain your daily activities.
5. Drink plenty of liquids. Drink plenty of water and fruit juices to facilitate excretion.
6. Have enough sleep. Give yourself enough sleep so that mind and body can rest.
7. Avoid crowded areas because bacteria that cause diseases multiply and spread easily. Airy and well ventilated areas are essential to health living.
8. Use environment friendly Christmas Decors that cost less and are not fire hazards. Save decors for next year and store them in a safe place.
9. Buy toys with no pointed or sharp edges, nor too small toys that can cause choking.
10. Do not use firecrackers and fireworks during the Holidays. Make some noise even without fireworks and firecrackers

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A BLESSED NEW YEAR.
STAY ALIVE AND WHOLE FOR THE COMING YEAR.
