Health Is Vital

Health is taken for granted, until you can't any more. In this blog I hope to put down on paper some of the articles I come across and want to remember, about health. I will be personalizing these articles to apply to me. I am diabetic, over weight, have high blood pressure and tinnitus, so these are the things you will find here. I will include nutrition, exercise, and holistic health, and many other ideas. I work in the health profession, particularly mental health, and have an interest in suicide prevention; so these topics will also be covered in this blog. Please, if you are suffering reach out. Our county health and crisis line is 1-855-278-4204.

Helmet Safety: Protect Your Head

This flyer comes from Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority.  Wearing a helmet is so important when riding--bicycle, skateboard, skating scooter.  Brain injury can lead to death, but also permanent disability.  This flyer also addresses the proper wearing of the helmet.  I didn't realize what the difference in helmets meant, or how to wear the helmet correctly.  ALso tossing the helmet after four years, or earlier if it has been in a crash, and no used helmets.
