Amazing Benefits To Seniors Having Pets Pets bring much joy to the lives they touch. So it should come as no surprise that the 2019-2020 National Pet Owners Survey, which was conducted by the American Pet Products Association, found that about 85 million families in the United States own a pet. In Canada, 7.5 million households are home to companion animals, states the PetBacker blog. Pets offer companionship and unconditional love. While they are fitting for any family, seniors may find that having a pet is especially beneficial. The organization A Place for Mom, which helps match families with senior living residences, says pets provide a comfort system that produces measurable health results. Caring for pets and being around them can produce a chemical chain reaction in the brain that may help to lower stress hormones while also increasing production of the feelgood hormone serotonin. This is not the only health benefit pets may provide. A recent study from the Mayo Clinic, which looked at 1,800 people between the ages of 25 and 64 who had healthy hearts, found that almost half owned a dog. Having a dog was likely to spur heart-healthy behaviors, like exercising with the pet, eating well and having ideal blood sugar levels. Pets also provide emotional support and companionship that can help seniors — including those who may be divorced or widowed — feel more secure and happy. The National Poll on Healthy Aging found that, among respondents who had pets, 88 percent said their pets helped them enjoy life, and 86 percent said their pets made them feel loved. Seniors considering getting a pet can explore the many benefits to doing so. • Reduce pain: A 2012 study published in Pain Magazine found therapy dogs provided “significant reduction in pain and emotional distress for chronic pain patients.”

• Feeling of purpose: Caring for an animal not only stimulates physical activity, but it also can give seniors a reason to get up and go, which equates to a feeling of purpose. • Altered focus: Having a pet can help seniors focus on something other than physical or mental health issues and preoccupations about loss or aging, according to New York-based psychologist Penny B. Donnenfeld. • Increased physical activity: Pets require care, and that interaction can get seniors moving more than if they didn’t have a pet. • Improved health: Ongoing research from Harvard Medical School has found dog owners have lower blood pressure, healthier cholesterol levels and lower risk of heart disease than those who don’t own a dog. • Stick to routine: Caring for pets helps seniors maintain a routine. Having structure after retirement can be important to ward off risk of depression. Staying on top of feeding, grooming and other pet needs also can help prevent cognitive decline. Pets bring many benefits to their owners’ lives, and they may be the perfect remedy for seniors looking for a friend and purpose.

Be Safe When Lightning Strikes

BUCKET FILLERS - Congratulations to the more than 70 Brook Avenue School students who were recognized as Bucket Fillers. The students were recognized for demonstrating good character.

Free Diabetes Prevention Program disease continues to rise, especially in the African American and Hispanic populations. This program offers those who are at risk for diabetes an excellent opportunity to learn more about preventing diabetes and living a full life.” The classes cover lifestyle changes, including increasing physical activity and improving food choices. Participants work toward goals that lead to the prevention or delay of a diabetes diagnosis. A trained lifestyle coach will facilitate the class in a small group setting. According to the New York State Department of Health, diabetes is the most rapidly growing chronic disease of our time, affecting one out of every 12 adults in New York. Minority populations are at high risk, especially those who are African American,

Latino, Native American and Asian American. Diabetes puts the body at risk for many serious health conditions, including heart disease, eye problems, kidney disease, poor blood flow, amputations and complications of pregnancy if it is not properly controlled. “The good news is that moderate changes in lifestyle can help you to restore your blood sugar to normal levels and result in significant health benefits,” said Dr. Tomarken. This course can help those who are at risk for diabetes to make those small changes and enable them to improve their overall health and wellbeing.” The Diabetes Prevention Program will begin on March 11 and will run weekly for 16 weeks at the Suffolk County Department of Health Services Office of Health Education located in building C016 at 725 Veterans Highway in Hauppauge. Dates: March 11, 18, 25 April 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 May 6, 13, 20, 27 June 3, 10, 17, 24 Time: 6:00 – 7:15 Contact: Debora 631853-2928

Carolina, and Texas also must be extra cautious when lightning strikes. To stay safe, remember the mantra, “When thunder roars, go indoors.” In addition, the following precautionary measures can help people stay safe when lightning strikes. •Postpone outdoor activities if the weather forecast calls for thunder-storms. You also can use the 30-30 rule. After you see lightning, start counting to 30. If you hear thunder before you reach 30, go indoors. Suspend activities for at least 30 minutes after the last clap of thunder, offers the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. •Avoid open areas outside. Do not be the tallest object in a field or area. Also, stay away from isolated tall trees, utility poles and towers. •If no shelter is available, crouch low with as little

of your body touching the ground as possible. •Lightning can travel through indoor plumbing, so avoid using water during a thunderstorm. Similarly, lightning can travel through electrical systems, like phones, radios and television reception systems. •A car can be a safe place to stay if no other non-concrete shelter is available. •Recognize that all thunderstorms produce lightning. Just because you can’t see lightning doesn’t mean it’s not there. •Get out of pools or other bodies of water. Water is an excellent conductor of lightning. •The human body does not store electricity, says the Insurance Information Institute. Therefore, if a person is struck, you can safely offer first aid. Lightning is no joke and never something to take lightly.

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone invites residents who have pre-diabetes or are at high risk for developing type-2 diabetes to participate in Suffolk County’s National Diabetes Prevention Program. The program is based a study led by the National Institutes of Health that showed that making modest lifestyle changes can reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58 percent in people at high risk for diabetes. The program, conducted by the Department of Health Services, will meet one hour per week, for 16 weeks, followed by monthly follow-up sessions. “Diabetes is a major health concern in Suffolk County and nationwide,” said County Executive Steve Bellone. “The rate of the chronic

A change in seasons often brings about a change in the weather as well. Seasons marked by increased humidity in the air and warmer temperatures often usher in afternoon or evening thunderstorms. With those thunderstorms come potentially dangerous lightning. The National Weather Service says lightning strikes the United States roughly 25 million times a year, killing an average of 47 people each year. Worldwide, lighting kills as many as 2,000 people every year, states National Geographic. Even though the odds of being struck by lightning are low, certain factors put people at greater risk. Florida is considered the “lightning capital” of the United States, so residents of the Sunshine State should always exercise extreme caution upon seeing lightning.

Yu “Kevin” Zhu, a senior at Central Islip High School, was honored at the February Islip Town Board meeting, for becoming the first student in the district’s history to enter the Regeneron Science Talent Search Competition and earn a spot in the semi-finals. The Regeneron Talent Search Competition is an international competition that awards students for their exceptional innovative thinking and research skills, and their

commitment to academics. “Kevin was one of nearly 2,000 students around the world who entered the competition, and one of 300 students to make it to the semi-finals,” said Islip Supervisor Angie Carpenter. “Kevin has a bright future, and we congratulate him for making history in the district,” she added Kevin’s project, “The effects of simulated microgravity on the biofilm production and susceptibility

of Acinetobacter Tat mutants,” earned him and the Central Islip High School $2,000 in grant money. Kevin has been awarded early admission to Yale University. Joining the ceremony were Dr. Howard Koenig, Superintendent, Central Islip Schools; Sharon Dungee, Assistant Superintendent, Curriculum; Roann Roderick, Science Teacher, Central Islip.

The thyroid gland plays an essential role in the human body. According to the online healthcare publishing company Medicine.net, the thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland in the front of the neck that produces the hormones that regulate metabolism. When the thyroid gland’s ability to do its job is compromised, the effects can be serious and lead to a host of symptoms that don’t go away. Thyroid conditions vary, and as a result, that can produce their own distinct symptoms. The Harvard Medical School notes that the thyroid can be overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underactive (hypothyroidism). An overactive thyroid will produce too much hormones, while an underactive thyroid won’t produce enough. Symptoms of both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism can overlap, but each condition has its

own unique symptoms as well. What are the symptoms of hyperthyroidism? • Fatigue • Fast heartbeat • Trouble concentrating • Increased appetite • Sweating • Nervousness, restlessness • Unintentional weight loss What are the symptoms of hypothyroidism? • Fatigue • Increased sensitivity to cold • Muscle weakness • Brittle nails and hair • Hoarse voice • Unintentional weight gain The online medical resource Healthline notes that most cases of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism cannot be prevented. For example, hyperthyroidism is often caused by Graves’ disease,

an immune system disorder that’s most common among women. Some peoples’ thyroids have become overactive because they consumed too many foods that contained iodine, such as table salt, fish and seaweed. However, Healthline notes that such instances are rare. While people may not be able to prevent thyroid conditions from developing, they can keep a watchful eye out for any of the aforementioned symptoms of overactive or underactive thyroids. Any such symptoms should be reported to a physician immediately. Medicine.net notes that, in most cases, thyroid disorders can be managed with treatment and are not life-threatening. However, the outlook for people with thyroid conditions is always better when symptoms are reported early.
