¡En honor a la salud femenina!A los 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 o 70 o mas años,

“¡con buena salud, se luce bien a cualquier edad!”

Honoring Women’s Health! In her 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, or 70’s.

“Healthy looks good at every age!”

May 2017 Health Note

1

During the month of May, in celebration of Mother’s Day and National Women’s Health Week from

May 14-20, women are honored for the love and dedication given to making each family member healthy!

For the many women who forget to put themselves first, the Chronic Disease Prevention Program asks you

to take a moment to inspire your mom, grandmother, sister and wife about good health.

This year, pay it forward by helping mom or that special woman

in your life make health her #1 priority. National Women’s Health

Week, is a good way to remind her to schedule a medical check-

up. According to the Centers for Disease Control, heart disease

continues to be the number one killer of American women. The

symptoms of having heart disease vary from person to person,

and is the reason regular check-ups are the best option.

A good plan can help prevent and control heart disease at

any age. Remind her that “healthy looks good at every age”,

whether she is in her 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, or 70’s! Regularly

including physical activity, eating healthy and getting medical

check-ups is a good plan for any age.

To support her, offer to:

Physical activity: Go on a 30 minute walk with her. Daily exercise will lower her risk of dying early by

27% compared to someone who only exercises once a week (Health, 2017).

Healthy eating: Prepare healthy meals that count! “Because every food and drink matters!” Plan meals

with a variety of veggies, fruit, whole grains and lean protein.

Medical check–ups: Go to the doctor with her and inspire dialogue about family history. Talk about your

health goals and allow her to share hers.

Once mom gets back on track with a meal and exercise plan she likes, she will begin to feel healthier and

“age will just be a number.”

Mayo 2017 Nota para Su Salud

2

Durante el mes de mayo, en celebración al Día de las Madres y durante la Semana Nacional de la

Salud Femenina del 14-20 de mayo, honoramos a todas las mujeres por el amor y dedicación dada al

cuidado y salud de toda la familia. Para todas mujeres que se olvidan de cuidar de sí mismas, el Programa

de Prevención de Enfermedades Crónicas, le pide tomar acción para inspirar a su mamá, abuela, hermana

y esposa, sobre lo importante que es estar la buena salud.

Este año, dele el regalo de la prioridad. Hágale sentir que su

salud es importante. La Semana Nacional de la Salud Femenina

es un buen momento para recordarle sobre su chequeo

médico. De acuerdo a Los Centros de Enfermedad y Control,

las enfermedades del corazón son el asesino número uno de

mujeres que viven en los Estados Unidos. Los síntomas de

enfermedades de corazón varían de persona a persona, y es

la razón que los chequeos regulares con el doctor son la mejor

opción.

Un buen plan le ayudará a prevenir y controlar las enfermedades

del corazón. Hágale saber que “¡con buena salud, se luce bien a

cualquier edad!” Ya sea que ella tenga 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 o 70 años o más... incluir ejercicio regularmente,

tener una buena alimentación y obtener chequeos regulares con su médico es el mejor plan a cualquier

edad.

Para darle apoyo, ofrézcale:

Actividad física: Salir a caminar por 30 minutos. El ejercicio todos los días reduce el riesgo de muerte prematura por 27% en comparación con alguien que solo hace ejercicio una vez por semana (Health, 2017).

Alimentación saludable: ¡Prepare comidas que cuenten y tengan un gran valor nutritivo! Porque cada alimento y bebida cuenta, planee platillos saludables con variedad de verduras, frutas, granos enteros y proteína baja en grasa.

Chequeos médicos: Acompañarla a su chequeo médico. Platique con ella sobre la historia de salud médica familiar. Comparta sus metas de salud y permita que ella comparta las de ella con usted.Cuando mamá aplique el plan de ejercicio y alimentación que le guste, ella comenzará a sentirse bien y su edad simplemente será un número.
