Men’s Health By Craig Doussett, Assistant Director of Education, Clark’s Nutrition
June is men’s health month, a time to take stock of what works to boost health and happiness while trying new things in the quest for a vibrant and long
life. It is important to go over the basics of good health to set ground rules and then introduce some additions to a man’s daily routine that will hopefully im-
prove quality and quantity of life. Firstly, the most important staples of good health are:
No smoking! Quitting at any time can help increase the chance of improved health outcomes
Minimize drinking, alcohol raises blood pressure, the silent killer, and increases the risk of the number one killer of men- heart disease
Maintain a healthy weight and manage stress
Eat a healthful diet and get plenty of physical activity
Do not forget to rest, sleep is the number one contributor to longevity
The above seems common sensical but it is always good to review the basics as a starting off point. Note also that these basics will take care of most of
what men can do to maximize their health. While certain diseases and chronic conditions seem to attack indiscriminately, there is much that can be done to safe-
guard the precious health of man. Now on to the finer points of a healthy lifestyle, the bells and whistles, which make every day that much stronger and mascu-
line. The following guidelines may lead to an increase in heart health, libido, mental health, and musculature.
First are the foods to consume:
Fish- plenty of protein and omega 3 essential fats for the brain and heart
Broccoli- important source of potassium, heart and muscle contraction, and fiber beneficial to the colon
Whole grains-important for cholesterol health and to balance energy throughout the day
Peas, beans, apples, pears- important sources of soluble fiber, important for blood sugar control and to a feeling of fullness
Berries and cherries-great source of antioxidants, fiber, amino acids, and are tasty to boot
DON’T FORGET TO TRY NEW FOODS AND ADD THEM TO YOUR LIST OF PERSONAL HEALTH BOOSTING FAVORITES
Next we will review some habits and supplements that may prove beneficial in the search for health and potency:
A good multivitamin (ask a nutritional consultant to help personalize your request)
Calcium- important for heart health, fat loss, testosterone boosting and of course bone health (calcium is also found in green leafy vegetables, dairy, and
many fortified foods so do not overdo it)
There are very strong herbs that help with male vitality and libido. Some like Maca and Saw Palmetto can be taken on a daily basis while others such as Yo-
himbe may only need to be taken when the occasion arises (or to rise to the occasion as it were!). Always start out cautiously, follow label recommendations
and warnings and be aware of medication interactions by speaking to your doctor or pharmacist
Drink plenty of water- water will help the nutrients absorb better and contributes to muscle health and flexibility
REMEMBER, HIGH POTENCY VITAMINS MAY NOT BE NEEDED WHEN HIGH EMPHASIS IS PLACED ON EATING WELL
These suggestions are for all races and ages. No matter when someone starts to eat and live better, positive changes can be seen and felt. Starting to take
care of one’s health, especially for males can seem selfish at first but is imperative if males are going to continue to make contributions to family, friends, and
the community.

Article 2 — May 20, 2013
Interest rates are at historic lows. But they will rise eventually. If you
invest in fixed-income vehicles, such as bonds, what might higher rates mean
for you?
As is almost always the case in the investment world, there’s no simple
answer. First, it’s important to distinguish between short-term and long-term
interest rates. The Federal Reserve is determined to keep short-term rates low
until unemployment improves, but, in the meantime, longer-term rates may
well rise.
Depending on your situation, a rise in long-term rates can present both
opportunity and concern. The opportunity: Rising rates can mean greater in-
come if you invest in newly issued bonds. The concern: If you already own
longer-term bonds, and rates rise, the value of your bonds will fall. That’s be-
cause other investors won’t want to pay full price for your bonds when they
can get new ones at higher rates.
Even if the value of your long-term bonds falls, isn’t it worthwhile to
hold on to them? After all, as long as your bond doesn’t default — and if the
bond is considered “investment grade,” a default is unlikely — you will get a
steady source of income and you’ll receive the full value of your bond back at
maturity. Aren’t these valuable benefits?
They are indeed — but they may be more relevant for short-term bonds.
Longer-term bonds — those of 10-year duration or longer — are more subject
to inflation risk than shorter-term bonds. Of course, we’ve experienced low
inflation for a number of years, but, over time, even mild inflation can add up.
When this happens, and you own a long-term bond whose rate doesn’t change,
you could face a potential loss of purchasing power. One of the reasons that
long-term bonds pay higher interest rates than short-term bonds is because the
issuers of longer-term instruments are rewarding you for taking on this addi-
tional inflation risk.
Consequently, simply holding on to long-term bonds — especially very
long-term ones, such as those that mature in 30 years — may not be the best
strategy. If you review your fixed-income holdings and find that they skew
strongly toward longer-term bonds, you may want to consider reducing your
exposure in this area. If you did sell some of these bonds, you could use the
proceeds to help build a “bond ladder” — which may be one of the best ways
to invest in bonds.
To create this ladder, you need to invest in bonds of varying maturities.
When market rates are low, you’ll still have your longer-term bonds earning
higher interest rates, thereby paying you more income. And when market rates
rise, you can reinvest your maturing short-term bonds at the higher rates. You
must evaluate whether the bonds held within the bond ladder are consistent
with your investment objectives, risk tolerance and financial circumstances.
If you own bonds, you do need to be aware of where interest rates are
— and where they may be headed. Nonetheless, as we have seen, you don’t
have to be at the mercy of rate movements. By keeping yourself informed and
choosing the right strategies, you can benefit from owning bonds and other
fixed-income vehicles in all interest-rate environments.
Before investing in bonds, you should understand the risks involved,
including credit risk and market risk. Bond investments are subject to interest
rate risk such that when interest rates rise, the prices of bonds can decrease,
and the investor can lose principal value if the investment is sold prior to ma-
turity.

The Pathways of Migraines
The Class IV K-Laser is at the heart of our treatment program. It provides a
safe, effective, non-invasive, painless solution for headache pain. Patients re-
spond exceptionally well to treatments and usually notice significant pain re-
lief after just a few treatments. Dr. Keough’s program utilizes the latest FDA
Cleared Lasers, and combines them with other therapies to help reduce the
pain, strengthen the muscles and increase range of motion. Most importantly
these treatments help reduce inflammation/swelling, which helps improve
overall function. Dr. Keough has been treating sports injuries for over 35 years
and has been helping people suffering from various health conditions during
that time. Patients seek his advice and care if they want to avoid surgery if at
all possible and help you return to all the activities you enjoy.
A migraine is a common
type of headache that may occur with
symptoms such as nausea, vomiting,
or sensitivity to light. In many peo-
ple, a throbbing pain is felt only on
one side of the head. Some people
who get migraines have warning
symptoms, called an aura, before the
actual headache begins. An aura is a
group of symptoms, including vision
disturbances, that are a warning sign
that a bad headache is coming.
Symptoms
Vision disturbances, or aura, are considered a "warning sign" that a migraine is
coming. The aura occurs in both eyes and may involve any or all of the follow-
ing:
A temporary blind spot
Blurred vision
Eye pain
Seeing stars or zigzag lines
Tunnel vision

Pool Tournament

Luncheon

Card
Winner
By Lion Don Smith
Tired of being behind the Eight Ball and looking to make a change?
There is a new lease on life if you hook up with either the Senior Cen-
ter or the Grand Terrace Lions Clubs’ pool teams. All you need aside from the
affiliation is an affinity for the game.
The teams play every other Thursday, beginning at 6:30 p.m., with cue
sticks hung up at about 8 p.m. The games are at the Senior Center on Grand
Terrace Avenue, about a block east of Mt. Vernon Avenue.
There is no charge to play, although you must either join the Senior
Center at $3 per year or be accepted into the Lions Club if not already a card
carrier.
The Seniors average in age at 167, while members of the Lions Club aver-
age 166. The Lions lead play with 15 victories to14.
Each organization has its own membership rules, and sex and criminal
record are not among them.
Everyone who shows up gets to play on a rotating basis. Winning is only
second in importance. Showing up ranks first. There will be tournaments at the
Senior Center on May 30 and June 13, with play every other Thursday from
then on.
