Most Americans gain some weight during the holiday season. Gaining one to two pounds is average. With the combination of lots of rich foods, the cold weather and too much sitting around, it is not surprising. Gaining a couple of pounds is not alarming. The problem comes when those pounds tend to stick around and accumulate over the years. Holidays can also be a series of disasters for people with diabetes, those trying to lose weight or anyone wanting to choose a healthier way of

eating. Planning can make all the difference. Why not try to adopt a few of the following wellness tips for the holidays. Do not skip meals

Research shows that most of us believe that breakfast is the most important meal of the day; however, more than half of all Americans do not eat breakfast every day. It can be tempting to skip breakfast or even lunch before indulging in a big holiday meal. However, people who skip meals actually are more likely to gain weight.

When energy levels are low, we are more likely to reach for foods and beverages that give a quick fix, like sugary soft drinks, cookies and other treats high in carbs. In addition to being high in empty calories, these food choices do not provide the nutrition needed to keep up daily activities.

Being extremely hungry also tends to lead to overeating at mealtime. Instead, eat a breakfast high in fiber with a good protein source. This will help provide a steady sustained release of energy to the brain and body, which improves concentration and physical and mental energies throughout the day. Remember that eating healthy, properly portioned meals throughout the day can

actually help keep the weight off. Examples of a power breakfast include:• Whole grain toast or bagel with peanut butter, banana slices, and low-fat milk• Oatmeal with milk, raisins and walnuts• Homemade smoothie with frozen fruit and yogurt• High fiber cereal (like shredded wheat) with milk, low-fat yogurt, and a slice

of melon• Veggie scrambled eggs with whole grain tortilla and small glass of 100

percent juice• Bran muffin, low-fat cheese slices and fruit

Coffee and a pastry is by no means a breakfast of champions, but it remains a popular pairing nonetheless. The reason why may have something to do with your brain—and your taste buds. According to a new study, caffeine decreases our ability to taste sweetness, which can make you crave it. In the study, one group of people drank decaffeinated coffee with 200 mg of caffeine added to each cup, while another drank plain decaf. Neither group knew which coffee they were getting. While an equal amount of sugar was added to both groups’ coffee, participants who drank the caffeinated brew rated their coffee as less sweet.

Caffeine “works” by temporarily suppressing the receptors in the brain that promote relaxation and sleepiness. And it so happens that those receptors are also linked to the ability to taste sweetness. It’s not hard to see, then, how regular coffee may encourage you to add extra sugar to your cup or opt for sweet treats on the side. Keep that in mind the next time you pour yourself a cup, and pre-plan your accompanying food accordingly.

“Coffee and oatmeal with nuts and fruit” or “coffee and a veggie omelet” may not have the same ring to it as “coffee and a donut,” but they’re a much better way to start your day. And when you start that way (with some protein for breakfast and no sugar in your coffee to corrupt your taste buds), you’ll be on your way to a healthier you!

Be calm and confident with

sophrology

Morning warning: Your cup of joe might increase sugar cravings!

Do you ever shy away from expressing your thanks for something you appreciated? It’s time to break that habit. Not only does it feel fantastic to the person on the receiving end, it feels good to focus on what you’re grateful for.

There are loads of research on the health benefits of gratitude (greater life satisfaction, better sleep, even improved physical health) and researchers recently set out to determine why people are sometimes reluctant to express their appreciation directly to another person. Participants were asked to send someone in their life a letter of gratitude and to predict how the recipient would react. After the letter was sent, the researchers compared these predictions to the recipients' actual reactions. Researchers found that the senders overestimated how awkward the recipient would feel and underestimated how happy they’d be to get the letter. The senders also worried needlessly that the recipients would judge their writing harshly; in fact, what mattered to the recipients was the warmth of the note.

Clearly, when you express thanks, whether in a letter, by phone, or in person, everyone wins.

Mindfulness meditation has become wildly p o p u l a r — a n d t h a t ’s a g o o d thing. With more than a thousand meditation apps avai lab le , and more and more meditation studios popping up, mindfulness meditation, once thought of as an alternative practice, has become solidly mainstream. It should come as no surprise, then, that different types of meditation are gaining traction. One such practice is sophrology. Already popular in parts of Europe, where it has been used in schools, businesses, professional sports and hospitals, sophrology is a form of meditation that strives to reduce physical and mental tension while i nc rea s ing men ta l a l e r tne s s— increasing both calm and confidence and decreasing stress, as well as helping maintain your emotions through events that can bring you stress, such as competitive sports, academic endeavors and even surgery. The technique combines meditation, breathing and relaxation methods with gentle movement and visualization. To get started, you can find a certified practitioner, search for guided listening apps or look online for videos. Meantime, try this beginner exercise:

• Sitting, standing or lying down, close

your eyes.

• Breathe in through your nose,

holding your breath as you tense all the muscles in your body.

• Breathe out through your mouth as

Reach out and thank someone!

Q: What’s the best way to treat epistaxis?A: Well, that one made me go to the dictionary.

Turns out, epistaxis is the fancy word for nosebleed.The best way to treat a nosebleed is to resist every

instinct in your body to tilt your head back or to lie down. You have to keep your head higher than your heart to cut down on bleeding. And, if you lean back, you can swallow blood, which can produce vomiting and diarrhea.

The best technique is to sit down and lean slightly forward so the blood will drain out of your nose. Then, using your thumb and index finger, squeeze the soft portion of your nose together.

Hold your nose until the bleeding stops. Don’t let go for at least five minutes. Repeat as necessary. You can also place an ice pack across the bridge of your nose.

Self-treatment can stop almost all nosebleeds. If bleeding persists, get immediate medical attention.

To prevent a recurrence of a nosebleed, follow these tips:• Avoid bending over or blowing your nose

for several hours.• Rest with head elevated to about 45

degrees.• Don’t lift anything heavy.• Don’t smoke.• Don’t drink hot liquids for at least 24

hours.• Blood-thinners are not advisable if you're

suffering from a nosebleed. Avoid aspirin and ibuprofen for normal aches and pains. However, if you are on a prescribed blood-thinner such as Coumadin, consult your physician.

Nosebleeds usually start just inside the nose at the septum that separates the nostrils. The septum contains many fragile, easily damaged blood vessels

In older adults, a nosebleed may also begin deeper inside the nose, where there are larger blood vessels. This type of nosebleed may be caused by hardened arteries or high blood pressure. These nosebleeds begin spontaneously and often require medical treatment.

The most common causes of bleeds are dryness and picking your nose. Other causes include injuries, colds, allergies, blowing your nose, an object stuck in the nose, repeated sneezing, nasal sprays and cocaine use.

Frequent nosebleeds can be an indicator of serious illness. For example, nosebleeds and bruising can be early signs of leukemia. Nosebleeds can also be a sign of blood clotting disorders and nasal tumors.

A cooler house and a humidifier help many people with frequent nosebleeds. Nasal saline spray and petroleum jelly ointment can help prevent nosebleeds, especially during the winter months.

If you are prone to recurrent nosebleeds, it is helpful to lubricate the nose with an ointment. This can be applied gently with a Q-tip inside the nose. Make sure the ointment is applied generously to the septum. Many patients use A & D ointment,

Nosebleeds usually start just inside the nose at the septum that separates the nostrils. You have to keep your head higher than your heart to cut down on bleeding.

Make exercise a priority The hustle and bustle of the holiday season can make it challenging to stick to a regular exercise routine. Even if it is not possible to make it to the gym or walk outside, there are easy ways to incorporate activity throughout the day, including:• Parking far from the shopping mall and walking• Taking the stairs whenever possible, walk slowly and hold onto the

rail—downstairs is easier than upstairsoing for a brisk walk after dinner• Try not to sit for more than 30 minutes at a time, get up and stretch

Staying active also, helps manage stress levels. Whether you are fighting the crowds at the mall or the airport, wear comfortable shoes and enjoy the walk. Make a point of getting up and moving for at least 30 minutes every day.Make a plan; have a strategy

It seems like nearly every holiday gathering includes lots of rich foods. It is still possible to enjoy the traditions without sabotaging a healthy lifestyle and gaining too much weight. Having a strategy can help. When filling your plate at a meal, try mentally dividing the plate up with foods so that:• ¼ of the plate is protein (turkey, ham, goose, etc.)• ¼ of the plate is carbohydrates (potatoes, stuffing, etc.)• ½ of the plate is fruit and green or brightly colored vegetables

Keep the calorie-laden foods in moderation and eat slowly. It is still fine to have a small amount, but try to ensure that the majority of the choices are healthier options. In addition, remember that the calories in alcoholic beverages can really add up. Pair a drink with a meal rather than in advance of the meal to help balance the amount of calories consumed.

Eat slowly enough to give your brain time to register that you are filling up and are not hungry anymore. The true enjoyment of the season comes from enjoying the company of family and friends. So, get out of the house and try to keep things in perspective. Over-indulging at a meal happens to everyone. Do not overindulge at every meal! The important thing is to stay active and healthy all year long.

While making the journey through grief, it is often hard to know if we are managing grief in healthy ways. The good news is that the vast majority of those who experience a loss to death adjust and adapt in healthy ways. Here are 10 signs you are managing your grief skillfully. 1. You are using a resilience you may have been unaware of. Most people are naturally resilient. We are equipped to not only endure loss but also to continue moving forward with our lives. When actor and martial artist Chuck Norris, learned his beloved brother was killed in Vietnam, Norris

tapped into the power of resilience to cope. In his book, The Secret Power Within, he writes, “Consolation comes in many forms, all of them meaningful and helpful to a degree, and families, even small ones, can generate enormous amounts of power support to deal with such a terrible loss. The first piercing grief eventually becomes a kind of ever-present sorrow that doesn’t seem to want to go away ever, but then it does; or, rather it grows into something else, something you know you can live with, although at the same time you know you’ll never forget.” 2. You are using your own unique ways of dealing with grief and not following someone else’s script for how you should feel, talk and behave. 3. You can talk about the one who has died, especially with good, trusted friends. The word “therapy” originates in the Greek language and literally means “healing by talking.” Speaking about the experience of loss and your feelings is therapeutic and healing. 4. You are stabilizing emotionally, mentally, and physically. The powerful emotions which are present initially, are easing up. It is less and less of a “roller coaster” ride. 5. You are eating and sleeping in ways that are normal for you. When his wife died suddenly of an aneurysm, Mark experienced sleep and appetite disorder. “I just couldn’t sleep well and could care less about eating. However, as I worked on my grief, I found myself releasing the tension. That allowed me to sleep better and actually enjoy a meal.” 6. You are enjoying the company of friends. After Karen’s husband died, she recalls a text she received seven months after the death: “Karen, some of us are meeting up for coffee. Why don’t you join us.” I did and it was the first time I felt I really wanted to be with a group. It was a nice breakthrough and awareness for me.” 7. You are comfortable when people don’t know what to say or when they act in clumsy ways toward you. It’s no longer an awkward moment for you because you understand that they just don’t understand. It’s OK. 8. You realize that the “goal” is not to “get over the loss” but become reconciled to it and live on to the best of your ability. 9. You are reaching out to help others. This indicates you are not completely self-absorbed and have extra energy to be helpful to others. Coming to the aid of another person has the added benefit of making you feel better as well. 10. You find reasons to feel

After her husband was killed in a work-related accident, Audrey Andersson says there were difficult and discouraging moments, but she chose to be optimistic. “I felt as if I were, indeed, in a black hole from which no escape is possible.

Before people develop type 2 diabetes, they almost always have “prediabetes”—blood glucose levels that are higher than normal but not yet high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.

Doctors sometimes refer to prediabetes as impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or impaired fasting glucose (IFG), depending on what test was used when it was detected. This condition puts you at a higher risk for developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseaseNo clear symptoms

There are no clear symptoms of prediabetes, so, you may have it and not know it. Some people with prediabetes may have some of the symptoms of diabetes or even problems from diabetes already. You usually find out that you have prediabetes when being tested for diabetes.

If you have prediabetes, you should be checked for type 2 diabetes every one to two years. Results indicating prediabetes are:Ÿ An A1C of 5.7% – 6.4%Ÿ Fasting blood glucose of 100 – 125 mg/dlŸ An OGTT 2 hour blood glucose of 140 mg/dl –
