Nutrition manager appointed

Daily Value is based on 3,500 milligrams (mg) per day. Note that the latest recommendations are for everyone age 14 and older to aim for 4700 mg daily. One cup of cooked spinach or broccoli contains over 800 mg, one medium baked potato has 800 mg and one medium banana provides 450 mg. With or without label information to guide us, increased potassium consumption is just one of many nutritional benefits that we get from following recommendations to eat an abundance of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and legumes.

No One Should Be Hungry In America

The program is a testament to our national conviction that no family should have to choose between purchasing healthy food and paying for things like rent, utilities, transportation, school supplies and other basic needs. Research shows that the majority of SNAP recipients who can work want to be employed. A recent analysis by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities showed that among SNAP households with at least one working-age, nondisabled adult, about half work while receiving food-assistance benefits. In addition, more than 80 percent of those who work, worked the year before or after they received assistance. Perhaps most telling is the fact that just 8 percent of SNAP recipients receive welfare. The USDA continues taking steps to improve the integrity of this program.

The Surprising Science Behind Sleep And Exercise

Other research has yielded slightly more optimistic results. Some studies suggest that when insomnia patients add moderate exercise to their daily routines, they experience less anxiety and get more sleep at night. And another study reported teenage athletes logged better sleep patterns and were more alert during the day than their peers who exercised significantly less. On the other side of the age and activity-level spectrum, research found moderate exercise helped improve the sleeping habits of normally sedentary elderly folks. Sounds like it’s time to stop watching “The Price is Right” and sign up for that senior citizen football league instead, Gramps!

When exercise becomes a pain in the butt

Your knee and lower leg and foot should be lying on the counter. This stretch should feel good, it should not be painful. If you feel pain or sensations going down your leg as you are performing the stretch, stop and call your doctor. Otherwise it should feel like a good deep stretch. This muscle is tight on most people and stretching it regularly throughout the day will help loosen it up. Loosening this muscle will also allow you to be stronger in your sport. Hip strength allows for faster movements within a sport.

Herhold: A no-exercise clause at a Saratoga shopping center

Not long ago, Pau’s Sand Hill Property gave notice to the restaurant, which is on a month-to-month lease. The Kuos were told to move by the end of September. When the Kuos objected to the short notice, Pau agreed to let them have one more month. Then he sent over legal paperwork with a condition that has outraged the neighborhood. If the Kuos were to stay until the end of October, they would have to agree to not “using the premises and common area for exercise or as an exercise facility.” The Kuos say the property manager left no doubt that she was talking about Lisa Kuo’s walking.
